Clinicals were 6 hrs long once a week. I learned a lot from my professor and from the LVN and RNs on our floor in Laguna Honda. I heard some other Clinicals, they didn't get to do much. Overall the experience has been great but I'm still a little scared at the price of the school. As far as working I decided not to for my first semester to see if I could handle to course load. I have other classmates that worked part time. As far as next semester I'm going to try working part time. No real tips, just work hard and don't procrastinate. Every place I've worked for all the nurses say that USF is a great school and the nurses are top notch so that's always a plus! Good luck!

I feel the acceptance was based more on my letter I wrote to the School. I was also transfer student too, with gpa 3.50 in my prereq. classes. I also went to Community College but didn't have to retake any classes. Work experience was 1 year of EMT ambulance work and 1 year of working at a allergy clinic with wonderful doctors that wrote me letters of recommendation. I also scored very high on my teas test. I didn't hear back from them till very late and had like a month to decide. I just didn't want to wait for any other schools. I got into a lot of schools but they all wanted to make me wait another 6 months to apply for the actual nursing school, so chose to stay with USF since it was closer to my house. GL!!

wow same boat as you, just need 120 and 170 till clinical starts but gonna use that time to get rid of rhetoric class they want, theology, ethics, and philosophy so while I'm in the nursing portion I can focus on just nursing and no other prerequisites. Maybe even try for the 4+1 program.
