   @andaughe….. Congratulations! Persistence is definitely important. I find it unusual that only one person on here has found out that they have been accepted. Usually they will call you to let you know that you have been accepted, nonetheless there ...

   @aa854.... I don't think it helps to compare yourself against another person as your situations are always different. I can't emphasize enough that your personal statement, along with your letters of recommendation, are the key to getting admitted. ...

   mailnursetobe replied to Polo goalie's topic in School Programs

   Greetings all, Just wanted to chime in. Having been accepted on my first time applying I can confirm @Statsleepers comments that the application process and what they are looking for goes far beyond just GPA. They will also tell you that on the webs...

   Polo, The last three Cohorts didn't hear on time and it really depends on the quantity of applicants being evaluated. It will be an interesting time waiting, and even if you don't hear right away don't give up. Acceptances have gone out up to the day...

   Kat...your best approach is to forget what everyone else does, forget that you didn't get any warning, because in fact you did, don't make excuses, don't behave like a child. Put on your grown up pants and be your own advocate. Write a letter appeal...

   mailnursetobe replied to Polo goalie's topic in School Programs

   Hey all, I just wanted to check in with you all as I am currently in the program. As to what cohort and such I would like to remain anonymous as I'd like to answer questions with total freedom. I am here because I wish that someone would have done th...

   @Tweety...Congratulations what a roller coaster ride for you. There is still a chance for those of you still waiting. People have been accepted all the way up to the day before orientation. So if you have not heard anything yet, hang tight. If you do...

   Hi all, Checking in again. @Laugh... I am so sorry to hear the news. All I can say is that keep your head up and keep moving forward. If USF is the place for you then you have a couple of months to rework your application and perhaps your personal...

   Just checking in again. Please don't give up hope. I think I said it in one of my earlier posts. You may not hear up until right before your orientation. If you have not received a letter stating you are not invited to join the next cohort, there i...

    Hi all, DAS really covered all of the bases pretty well. He is correct in that if you don't pass the CNL exam you don't graduate. I believe though you have nothing to worry about as it is quite a bit away and the CNL exam pass rate is equal to the NC...

    I wanted to address the Financial Aid question. Be sure that your FAFSA is filled out and ready to go. Do not worry about paying fees immediately as the FA office will communicate with the admissions office and it will be all worked out. Do keep o...

    Hey guys, Some updated info for you in regard to the comment by DAS. You will actually have a clinical in your first semester. It is something new that they started with the most recent cohort that came in January.

    Hi all. DAS is correct on the shoes. You don't wan't any fluid penetration or to make it easier for needles to penetrate in case of dropping one. Clogs with the closed back I assume will be okay so long as they are white, as for other shoes as clos...

    You'll have to purchase your own scrubs. They'll make recommendations but really any white scrubs.
