I found out I was accepted to the adult-gero primary track on April 26. My email is [email protected] if you want to stay in touch. Congrats whoever got in. No idea how they are doing the admission process.

I have been popping in from time to time but I already got into UCF ABSN 4 weeks ago...that's right I said 4 weeks ago and yes these programs start at the same exact time; I cannot believe how long this is taking for UF. Obviously I accepted UCF since UF is taking so long. The deadline for UCF was January 15th and for UF it was Feb 1st so not much of a difference there. Also I know USF had a deadline of March 1st and they found out 2 weeks later so what the heck. Just a warning for those end up going to UF, based on all the stuff that needs to be done before classes start in May, it is going to be a very hectic April for all of you. The stuff I've been doing for UCF includes background check, fingerprints, drug test, physical, TB test, immunization records along with getting new immunizations. Not even to mention the financial aid process, finding an apartment, making your schedule (classes and clinicals), doing the regular orientation plus the nursing orientation, getting your BLS/CPR certification from AHA, taking the HIPPA class. There's probably more that I am forgetting and all of this costs lots of money so I hope people have some cash on the side or a nice credit card (my route unfortunately). UF really disappointed me, at this point I am hoping to get rejected so I know I made the right choice by accepting to UCF but if I do get accepted I will be sure to let them know right away that someone else can have my spot. Another thing that makes me mad is how UF has absolutely no website for us postbacc students to check on our stuff...for all I know, my application materials may have never even made it to UF! UCF had a very good way of checking that all of your materials were received online and you could email/call the nursing office and always get an email back/someone to talk to on the phone. We received an EMAIL on March 2nd letting us know if we were accepted or denied. My suggestion to all of you that have already gotten accepted somewhere else: GO THERE, don't go to UF because just look at how sloppy this process has been compared to the schools that accepted you already. This isn't the 1980's anymore, everyone has an email....Anyway for those who are still hoping and praying and waiting, I wish you all the best of luck, hang in there!

Diegoseesnurses, I hope you checked your email because there is a form you had to sign and return to accept the position and it was due 3/16. Those who accept will be getting emails soon on what the next steps are.

I was accepted and told I needed to reply by today 3/16, I did so and was told to expect an email AFTER that deadline with all the details, so I assume those on the waitlist will be hearing next week.

Congrats gardyloo! What other school are you considering? Don't forget you must decide by march 16th for ucf

I guess almost all of the people accepted are not on this forum cause I only see 4 accepted posts

Zeus, yes I am committing to ucf, not only is ucf my first choice but I wouldn't wait around for the other schools decisions. Nikki, I dont have a Facebook right now but I'll start it back up soon and find the page, thanks for making it.

Yeah well USF is terrible with paperwork and I just got into UCF's absn program so good riddance USF!

Well I just got into UCF's absn program so goodbye UF! You take too freakin long!

I got into UCF's absn so FU reality check!!

Whoever got in , Here is my email: [email protected]. Email me and I will give you my number so we can meet up at orientation. By the way I am a 22 yr old male lol?

I faxed it and scanned/emailed it already lol. I've had paperwork lost at schools before so I'm not taking any chances. Anybody going to march 30 regular ucf orientation?

Lol I wrote on the previous page I got in too!
