    I think you have to apply for the parking pass online. I found the people at the transportation office to be very helpful when I called. The permits are kind of expensive (plan to spend a couple...

    Hey everyone! I've decided to withdraw my admissions offer from the nursing school. I've really loved my time at FAU but I think it's time for me to head somewhere new. I want to wish all of you the...

    I'm not even looking at Blackboard until I'm done with finals. The stress and lack of sleep is really crazy right now. Be prepared to be frustrated, because we're not going to hear final decisions...

    Yes, we must be CPR certified before you start clinicals. UM only accepts the AHA BLS for Healthcare providers course. Try to find one that offers a student discount if you

    Debblasko, you may have to wait a bit for scholarship. Since we are only offered preliminary admission, I don't believe we qualify for scholarships and financial aid through FAU

    Hi Debb, I only put in information through NursingCAS so as long as that information was sent, you're fine. UM changed their admission process and this is the first year they are using NursingCAS so...

    This is the first year that FAU is doing a January start date and there were some behind-the-scenes administration changes. They definitely have to iron out some kinks but we are the lab mice in this...
