Vic - I would love for someone to start a Facebook group! As for lab coats/scrubs, I noticed my shipping confirmation only lists the scrubs, no lab coat. I guess that means they will ship
I don't see it on mine, Karen. I assume they haven't finished it yet. Heather - Thanks! I have some Skechers flex sneakers that are very comfortable. I might just buy another pair of those. :) I may...
I did attend FAU for my undergrad and pre-reqs. I would definitely make sure you get a great score on the TEAS. Most people I talked to were 99th percentile, so there are some super competitive...
Has anyone asked about what shoes are clinical appropriate? I'm assuming any type of white running shoe, but you never know. If nobody knows, I'll try to find out.
Short answer: no. I was just accepted into the 2014 FAU ABSN program, and we were told that previous volunteer experience holds no bearing in their final decision. In fact, during the application and...
Hey Daniela! I would trust the CON. They are registering us, and are choosing which sections we are placed in. The Office of a Undergraduate Admissions probably isn't aware of this. If you haven't...
Yes fish, there are details about the Hep B series in the email we received if you are in the process of getting that series done. :) Just follow the directions
Lol. I could talk about my many hats! -waves hat frantically- Don't worry, I'm just a fellow applicant who is way too type A for her own good. Hence all the answers to these questions that I have...
Titers should be sufficient if you don't have documentation of childhood vaccinations. Varicella, Hep B, and MMR should have been completed during childhood. Make sure your tetorifice is a full Tdap...
That's odd. I could have sworn we received one, but I can't find one. I wouldn't worry too much, we can't do anything about the background check until we receive the code anyway, and I imagine...
Nope, haven't heard anything. If we don't receive further instructions, I'm making the assumption that it will be in the CON building where interviews were at.
Yes. It is required yearly for anyone who works as a nurse anyway, due to possible exposure through patients. So it is required for clinicals. If you look at the FAU health requirements for the CON, a...
I have a hold as well, but mine is a "declare major" hold. Silly, since I was pre-nursing. Guess it doesn't matter since I will be a nursing major as soon as the college goes through that.
Nicustudent - 3.6 cumulative, 3.9 science, 96% TEAS (99th percentile). I was accepted into the ABSN program (already hold a Bachelors and Masters in biology, two years doctoral work in cell and...
Apparently there is another form (http://nursing.fau.edu/uploads/docs/864/Annual%20Student%20Health%20Form.pdf) for your PPD (aka TB) test. This is the one they will need when you go back in three...
I noticed it is not on the immunization form as well. However, on the website it states you need "evidence of a negative PPD test". It looks like they require the results themselves as it says they...
Welcome, future classmates! :) Karen - I don't know much about specific apartment complexes and the like, but be aware cost of living, especially in the Boca area, is pretty steep. If you are...
