I'm Saturday at 10:30!

I just called FAU and asked about the interview times. All they told me is that we should know "soon", but they're still working on the schedule.

I've also been accepted! My overall score was 180. Does anyone else find it strange that the letters aren't being sent out all at once?

Has anyone else heard from the school?

Welcome cgonz067! I think the FAU website says that you can submit your application before NursingCAS has received all of your transcripts, so I do think you need to worry too much about time. If I remember correctly, it took about 2 weeks for them to receive my transcripts (but there's a possibility that FSU is just abnormally slow when it comes to processing transcript requests!).

Kathleen: I applied for the most recent Spring term, but was not accepted due to incomplete pre-requisites. That definitely taught me to always read and re-read every part of the FAU website. And I am applying for the accelerated track; I already have a B.S is Biology. Are you applying for the ABSN as well?

If I recall correctly, I read on the site that they do take second attempts, but they have to be taken at a state university. I think there's a general rule that community and state colleges do not let you re-take courses that you've earned a B in, but universities will. For the life of me, I can't figure out where I originally read about it.

nicustudent: I'm not sure if you can, at least concerning the ABSN program. The FAU website states that "all prerequisites including an earned bachelor degree in another discipline must be completed by the application deadline", but I would definitely call them to be absolutely certain.

Applications are open for FAU's January 2015 enrollment date! With just over 4 months until the deadline and 8 months to the start of the program, now seemed like as good a time as any to start a forum to ask questions, relay information, and support possible future classmates. To start off, I was wondering if any one knew if they normally offer a ABSN program that begins in the Spring. I had only heard of admittance to the Summer semester at the beginning of May. Best of luck to everyone!
