  1. University of San Francisco Fall 2018 Applicants

    SFnursetobe12 replied to tessalynngarcia's topic in School, College Programs

    Students have started a petition to change the sophomore 2 progression policy. For example to not make students pay $1600 for the remediation "course" and maybe give students 2 tries before...

  2. University of San Francisco Fall 2018 Applicants

    SFnursetobe12 replied to tessalynngarcia's topic in School, College Programs

    Congrats @nJAM! It isn't ideal that the program is 3+ years for transfers. The program was set up for incoming freshmen, not transfers. But you can use the time to take a minor or do their masters...

  3. Can you go straight into a BSN program after high school ?

    SFnursetobe12 replied to aa12345's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sure programs are different but at our school they take students right out of high school directly into the BSN program. The freshmen spend the first year taking nursing related prereqs (anat,...

    SFnursetobe12 replied to tessalynngarcia's topic in School, College Programs

    Stay hopefully everyone! I know of a classmate that was accepted a week before school

  5. University of San Francisco Fall 2018 Applicants

    SFnursetobe12 replied to tessalynngarcia's topic in School, College Programs

    That's great @tessalynngarcia that you finished all your prereqs! Just so you know if you are relying on financial aid you may need to take some PE classes or a minor to get your 12 units per...

  6. University of San Francisco Fall 2018 Applicants

    SFnursetobe12 replied to tessalynngarcia's topic in School, College Programs

    I am a transfer (spring start) our cohort is around 100. The fall is the freshman start (right out of high school) but there are a few transfers that get put with them. I'm assuming if some of the...

  7. University of San Francisco Fall 2018 Applicants

    SFnursetobe12 replied to tessalynngarcia's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm a junior right now. If you don't get in this semester and still would be considering going to USF you should complete all your courses that are not nursing at a CC. Once admitted to USF you must...

  8. University of San Francisco Fall 2018 Applicants

    SFnursetobe12 replied to tessalynngarcia's topic in School, College Programs

    Current student here. Good luck on getting accepted! Hopefully you have all been applying to many different programs! My biggest regret is that I only applied to USF and didn't wait to finish my...

  9. Has anyone been kicked out of nursing school after the FIRST semester?

    SFnursetobe12 replied to cn4207's topic in General Students

    Every school is different. The BSN program I go to gives students two chances. They are direct entry for freshmen out of high school and I know a girl that failed (C-) micro and physiology and she was...

  10. Future Pediatric Nurse: UC Berkeley vs Sac State

    SFnursetobe12 replied to habi14's topic in School, College Programs

    One more comment. If you decide not to go to UCB then maybe start looking into how you should go about getting that nursing degree. Did you get a scholarship to Sac State? Are you looking for the...

  11. Future Pediatric Nurse: UC Berkeley vs Sac State

    SFnursetobe12 replied to habi14's topic in School, College Programs

    Just throwing this out there but since nursing is so impacted in CA could you go to Cal to do your prereqs and apply to nursing programs from there? If for some reason you don't get into nursing...

  12. Pre-Nursing

    SFnursetobe12 replied to Guest1012917's topic in General Students

    The best for pre nursing might be the "other" option. Since both schools do not guarantee entry to their nursing program (unless something has recently changed) you have to look at what school is...

  13. Any advice on must haves for nursing school

    SFnursetobe12 replied to msheather413's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Such great advice! I'd like to add a case for your stethoscope. I like not having to worry about my stethoscope being at the bottom of my back pack. I feel like it's safe during transport to...

  14. UCI, SFSU, or Seattle U?

    SFnursetobe12 replied to joelleho's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Aid is a big deal! The freshmen I have met have really good scholarships, I'm guessing the people that say yes to USF are doing so with a nice aid package. But it is nice that USF guarantees incoming...

  15. UCI, SFSU, or Seattle U?

    SFnursetobe12 replied to joelleho's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you want the quickest route to becoming a nurse then I would suggest against entering a school as a "pre nursing" major. Acceptance into a Bay Area Nuring school is so competitive that I can't see...

  16. University of San Francisco Fall 2015 BSN Program

    SFnursetobe12 replied to BayArmyVet's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I couldn't agree more about taking the USF prereqs before entering USFCA. Correction to the above info. USFCA DOES NOT let you take philosophy, ethics or theology at any other school once accepted....

  17. University of San Francisco Fall 2016 BSN Program

    SFnursetobe12 replied to sm1211's topic in School, College Programs

    the nursing program is 6 semesters. transfers start as sophomores no matter what. I was a transfer with a lot of credits but missing micro and physiology so I was admitted as a freshman even though I...

  18. Best private student loans for large amounts?

    SFnursetobe12 replied to C_Schneider1010's topic in General Students

    I have multiple friends (and myself included) that got loans through Wells Fargo. I got a better interest rate through college Ave and when we told Wells Fargo that, Wells Fargo lowered their interest...

  20. Will Modeling Mess Up My Nursing Career?

    SFnursetobe12 replied to Plumrose15153's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't think it would hurt your nursing career since it is your business what you do on the side. That being said, my daughter is a model and taking her to last minute go-sees, saying yes to a...

    SFnursetobe12 replied to Mothernurseclub's topic in California Nursing

    You can go to the bookstore website and search by course. Don't worry about it yet. The bookstore is all roped off and not ready for students to purchase books. A lot of professors (I've heard) teach...

  25. Need some advice on if I should start at a 4 year university in California

    SFnursetobe12 replied to Sam_havens's topic in California Nursing

    There are some direct entry BSN programs. USF is direct entry. Once admitted you spend 4 years doing all course work and you graduate with your BSN. Lots of freshmen I've talked to have amazing...
