Congrats to all of you who have heard from other programs. UCF is my first choices and SSC/UCF Concurrent is my backup plan. Hopefully I don't need a back up plan to my back up! I am an older...

YES! Call the office of undergrad admissions (or check online) and make sure they received it... Then once you confirm, call the CON and let them know and they can manually enter the information. The...

As far as RN's go in general, they are needed! Just search for RN positions in the Orlando area and the job listings are endless. I personally believe that a lot has to do with your preference (do...
I also applied to the Basic BSN Program. Stats are : 4.0 Recalculated GPA (Pre-reqs) with a 3.78 Overall and an 85.3% Composite on the TEAS test. From everything I have read my stats are considered...

My daughter turns 11 in one week and she plays fast pitch softball competitively. She practices twice a week and has a private pitching lesson on a non-practice day. Then, on top of all that...

Ahhhhhhhhhhh! At least I have very active kids to keep me busy! I will definitely become a hot, anxious mess near the end! Good luck everyone! And, FYI - my prereqs took a while to update. Originally...

Your info session has to be completed BEFORE you apply! Hey a 79.3 still meets the requirement! You never know what the applicant pool will look like! Hope everything's ok

I am very surprised too! All of the other threads from semesters before have been jam packed with info and questions... We shall see! Maybe it's a good

I was going to go to the info session tomorrow for the Basic BSN and cancelled. I found a powerpoint presentation that they show at the info session and read through it. Glad to know that my 85 on...

I also got the email stating that I need to register for Orientation. I agree! If I am accepted into the program I will do the standard orientation in May :) Side note... I went to a concurrent...

I agree! Call them... That is what they are there for. The issue I ran into with transcripts was that undergrad admissions had marked my application that a final transcript was received, however,...

No, you don't have to do anything, but you may want to send an email to the nursing department to have them take a look at it. Mine only took 2-3 days for UCF to post them! I received a preliminary...

Congrats eptnurse!!! Those are awesome stats! The background check and fingerprinting is pretty easy if you haven't already done it. I applied the very first day it opened and I did pay the $7 for...

Yes, I had an 85.3 - thanks for the information :) Can you tell me what the advantages or disadvantages would be for taking the UCF Basic vs. the SSC Concurrent? I just feel like it's a straight shot...

Also - If for some reason you get a preliminary denial, they respond very quickly if you call or email to get it corrected. I had an issue with my transcript and it was fixed within 24

I feel like all the forums I was looking at when I applied for Spring (I was in progress with 3 prereqs LOL) were so much more active. I am wondering if maybe when the end of the application window...

Thanks for sharing! I am sure as time goes on I will have even more questions! I am out of school this semester because I didn't want to use up loan money for classes I don't need anyway! I finished...

chrissybrooke - would you mind sharing your stats when you were accepted? What was the process like once you were accepted and how are classes going? I really hope to get into this program vs. the...
