  1. UCF 2013 Accelerated BSN

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Nursowiczka2b's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yeah, CON told me that my transcripts weren't in, so I ended up sending them 4 times before they said that they couldn't access them because they were graduate. I had to contact Mr. Austin to have...

  2. UCF 2013 Accelerated BSN

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Nursowiczka2b's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yeah, Connie and I have exchanged numerous emails. My problem was that I have a graduate class I was trying to use for a prerequisite (developmental psych) and UCF does not merge grad and undergrad...

  5. UCF 2013 Fall-Orlando generic BSN applicants?

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Katsmeow's topic in Florida Nursing

    I read the handbook for the CON and I think UCF is pretty strict about white white white for the shoes. I thought reading the handbook would probably be a good idea, as it answered most of my...

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Nursowiczka2b's topic in Florida Nursing

  8. UCF 2013 Accelerated BSN

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Nursowiczka2b's topic in Florida Nursing

    9 days until the cutoff for the interview letters! And performance review time at work. Anxiety has taken on an entirely new level. I have started prepping for my interview by listing basic questions...

  10. Positive thoughts for the burnt-out and anxious-

    mrsbacktoschool posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    By now it seems we are all in the same boat- either nervous about an application already submitted and waiting for the letter (hurry up already!!!), burning out on the pre-reqs, or questioning our...

  11. UCF 2013 Fall-Orlando generic BSN applicants?

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Katsmeow's topic in Florida Nursing

    Lol. Do the "Today at UCF" updates keep throwing you off too? I get all excited for a minute. For good luck, I've been wearing my ugly white nursing clogs to work. I keep telling people "I'm...

  13. How many schools should I apply to?

    mrsbacktoschool replied to fbrlauren's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I only applied to one school (but an accelerated AND basic program) for nursing, but I was previously pursuing PA school and I applied to as many as I could fit in my budget. I found that setting a...

  14. How do you become a volunteer?

    mrsbacktoschool replied to RN2be J's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    SNFs are hard to volunteer at with any activity other than paperwork. You could say you would like to help with the workflow as best as you can, such as alleviating time from nurses/unit...

  15. Waiting on acceptance/rejection letters

    mrsbacktoschool replied to tortia1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have countdowns set on my phone for the acceptance letter dates. Waiting is making me super-anxiety-woman. I did double the work I usually do for February and I'm not behind. Nervous energy is...

  16. Needing advice on being a nurse! Especially Moms going through school

    mrsbacktoschool replied to MizMaverick's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's all great advice. I am full time student, full time employee, and my husband works nights 5 days a week, so it's just me and a preschooler. I have pulled it off easily so far, because little...

  18. UCF Applicants- Have you heard anything yet?

    mrsbacktoschool replied to mrsbacktoschool's topic in Florida Nursing

    Don't be so shocked. Many Psych MA's/ MS's are heading back to school. In Florida, jobs are very limited due to oversaturation by new grads. The average pay for a starting master's level counselor...

  19. UCF 2013 Fall-Orlando generic BSN applicants?

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Katsmeow's topic in Florida Nursing

    I love UF. That's where I did undergrad. Shands is amazing there. I would have applied but during my application process, my husband got a job that couldn't transfer and is not something he should...

  20. UCF 2013 Fall-Orlando generic BSN applicants?

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Katsmeow's topic in Florida Nursing

    mrsbacktoschool replied to BobbieGee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    mrsbacktoschool replied to 45whenimdone's topic in Disaster Preparation

    mrsbacktoschool replied to Katsmeow's topic in Florida Nursing
