   Cool thank you, that's really good info to know. So it sounds like that could boil down to about 2 hrs per wk for extra lab time, give or take, spread over a 16 week term. What are the lab hours (of operation) like?

   Could you elaborate on the amount of time generally required to be spent in the skills lab OUTSIDE of Tues 8a-4p and Thurs 8a-4p (or Thurs 9a-5p)? I'm not 100% clear on that. Thanks!

   Hi all - this is a little off topic but I am moving to Winter Haven/Lakeland in January for PSC Nursing and was wondering if anyone who is currently in healthcare has any suggestions on where is good (or not so good) to look into for a CNA job? Would...

   I got in! My letter came waaaay late but it made it finally. Now I'm just waiting to hear back from Eastern Florida -I think their letters are going out this week. Then it's decision time. :)

   I took my sciences up at the Melbourne campus but I've heard really great things about Janice Burger at Palm Bay for A+P. Not sure about any Microbio profs down at that campus though. I would highly recommend you check out ratemyprofessor.com if you ...

   Reading these comments this wknd, y'all have made me thoroughly jealous! I'm a couple hours away from PSC so hopefully my letter is just taking an extra day or two to get here. I think I'm going to park myself in a lawn chair next to my mailbox this ...

8. Eastern Florida State College Jan 2015 (Palm Bay prog) applicants?

   drizz35 replied to drizz35's topic in Florida

   VA aside, I think by and large you can still cross state lines without much issue. I've talked to a couple state BON's already (places where I might be interested to move in the future). Neither one indicated there would be any problem over this what...

   Haha re: above, I have no idea why so many words are lacking a space between them and all mushed together like that...? Something glitchey.

    drizz35 replied to drizz35's topic in Florida

    That's right, the program is not accredited withACEN (Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing). I really can'timagine why, when the overwhelming majority of state colleges / communitycolleges in Florida (and nationwide) have this accreditat...

    drizz35 replied to drizz35's topic in Florida

    It's probably going to be a few more weeks. Last year's applicants started receiving letters by about 10/9-10/10. I would assume more or less the same for us this year....Are you feeling pretty good about your chances?

    Awesome, I appreciate the feedback because I do feel very at home with EFSC and would love to do this nursing program if I get in. I actually recognize your screen name from the Jan 2014 applicant thread...it's amazing how fast a year goes by huh? Yo...

    Sweet thanks for the insights. I'm going to take a ride over to Winter Haven on 9/2 and check it all out and meet with an advisor, financial aid, admissions, etc. I think I have a decent shot at getting in, I just need to wrap my head around potentia...

    drizz35 replied to drizz35's topic in Florida

    Exactly. In all the networking and reading I've done so far, the answers I get about this are 100% all over the map which tells me that yes it could rear its head in the future or it could just as easily never be an issue at all. It's a gamble, and b...
