If you click the link it says Healthcare Provider BLS at the top. It isn't a heartsaver course.

When I look at the self service section, there is a tab that says Financial Aid. Everything you might need is under there I do believe.

The one I took was 4 hours in length, and had the same title as those (BLS for healthcare providers). I asked Dr. D and she confirmed that course meets the requirements. :)

Makes sense. I imagine once they get a count for the first set of acceptances, they can send out more based on the number of declines. They may then send out wait list emails.

I got an email back within a couple of hours thanking me for my prompt response. I sent mine around 1pm yesterday.

We were told to RSVP by 4pm today either way.

I filled out a FAFSA today and have started to look into scholarships (although none are available for summer). I've gotten my BLS done and I'm going in for my immunizations next week. That's my plan, until orientation at least. Then the hunt for boo...

I'm not certain anything really happens. There may be extraneous circumstances that lead this to happen, but it is likely frowned upon. Hopefully they would have enough time to invite those who are wait listed. I'm thinking they might be wanting an R...

Hey Daniela! Under the ABSN section in the FAQ, there is a link to the available scholarships. :)

That's what I thought. It's a new thing they are implementing for incoming freshman to FAU. They admit a lot of people, and I'm sure loads accept and never show up.

I think they will let you know either way. I haven't seen anyone post about being wait listed either.

If you haven't done your BLS course yet, you will need that as well. Is the $200 for FAU admission? Or the nursing program?

I plan to dress business casual.

I received mine as well. Congrats everyone! :)

Very similar to my plan. :)

That's excellent, Brianna! I hope you received plenty of offers. :)

Give it a couple of days and it won't be quiet anymore. XD I've been checking out some of the other ABSN threads and it seems they are getting their letters or doing interviews at the moment. We will be on that train very shortly.

Well guys, this is it! We should hear sometime this week. Best of luck, fellow future nurses!

At the end of the interview I was in they said we could expect to hear back in three weeks, which would be March 14th. A week from today! XD

Lol. I'm not so sure about that, but I'm going to definitely try my darnedest! I just know that I like to have every bit of information I need at hand, so answering questions and researching information for people is something I find helps me too. It...

Did you receive a card? Sounds like the same thing, but you should have received a card as proof that you took the course. That's what you will need to show FAU.

The BLS (basic life support) course is required for all students. You learn CPR, proper use of an AED, and the Heimlich maneuver. Rather critical skills for any healthcare professional. I'm not certain, but I would guess you need to have this done at...

That's what I paid for mine.

Information about immunizations and BLS certification can be found here: Florida Atlantic University - Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing - Current Students In previous years, clinicals started a few weeks into the first term. However, they have si...

I spoke with Dr. D about the BLS course. She said as long as it is AHA certified, and NOT the heart saver course (I took the one for healthcare professionals), it should be fine. I took mine in Lake Worth since it was close to me. There are several l...
