Hi! Anyone applying for USF (University of South Florida) ABSN for 2017? I can't seem to find anyone!

I am saying that this was NOT the case at all for me, so hopefully the OP will do the research far ahead of time in their area. If it helps, I'm in FL and I found most schools I applied to (which were 3, and I was accepted to all 3 with online class...

I would go for what you eventually WANT, which is the RN. There is nothing wrong with PN, especially if you have a family to support along the way and want to take a bridge program later, which is MUCH more flexible. However, you are YOUNG. I would...

I am not an SRNA, but I would think that the best thing for you to do at this time would be to contact the school directly and ask them. Some schools this matters, and others it doesn't. Some schools may weigh only certain classes very heavily, wh...

I also don't believe such a school exists. Here's what I did: 1. Google ALL state-schools that offer ABSN programs (or regular that accept 2nd degree students). State because I refuse to pay private tuition. I recommend you go this route too, beca...

I worked ~50 hours a week while taking 1 science, 1 lab and 1 non-science, so ~7 credits. In my first degree I worked two jobs, so about ~50 (sometimes more) hours a week while pursuing full time. It actually seems more full as an "adult" learner ...

I used to use it in my first degree program ~6-10 years ago. I checked reviews for my professors that I used for pre reqs, and found someone who rated the professor as poor because "he teaches us things that aren't even on the tests", and another on...

I'm sure you COULD get lucky with a walk-in, however when I made my appt I was under the impression the person who does immunizations is only there on certain days/times.

I'm also excited to meet everyone! I have to admit I freaked out a bit about the immunizations (Castelbranch) because I thought I read the e-mail wrong and I DEFINITELY won't have those done until late April because that's the earliest SHScould get m...

I never thanked you for your response! That's so strange. I would say just do the TB test in the opposite arm, but what do I know? :)

I have an appointment there late April to get my immunizations and titers done also. Did you get everything done (all 5 requirements) and did you have to wait very long to get the results? I'm going to try and hunt down some of my records, but i hav...

Did you end up getting an answer?

Another vote for online. I took all my pre reqs online (the sciences were hard to take online!), and I feel like psych is a pretty "easy" one to take online. As long as you can stay on task and don't need the constant reminder of in-person, you sho...

Yikes. Unfortunately, we see that your classmate has no intention (at least, in my opinion) of footing the bill. She has shown poor character. Being a single mother is tough, but it is no excuse to not fulfill a basic decent human obligation (again...

Since the TEAS 6 was released last August (I believe?) that is the only version you will be able to even register for. The TEAS 5 is still applicable for the people who took it 2 years ago or less.

Most immunization records can be sent pretty fast from your doctors office. If there are any titers/vaccines that you need, you can usually get those from the "minute clinics" (cvs etc). I haven't done my castlebranch package yet, I was waiting un...

I live in Oldsmar. I hear you, the commute might be rough, but I love where you live! We might move back that way after I graduate. I lived in St. Pete for a while until my husband moved down, then we had to relocate for his work (he has to be within...

Thanks for posting the update! I'm kind of bummed it looks like classes are pretty 8-5. Traffic around USF is AWFUL and from where I live it'll likely take me an hour each way :/. For people not from the area, make sure you look into crime stats. T...

I'm able to access my e-mail, but unable to set it as my "default". It's been more than 2 days now, so I might contact IT tomorrow if I don't hear anything.

Nice! Thanks for doing the "homework" :) I'm hoping for Mease, TGH or St. Joe's (my husband works there a lot, so that could be fun). I live out by Westchase so my commute to USF is going to suck most days. I'm so excited! I hope you guys got the O...

Has anyone received an e-mail with their USF health email? I'M JUST SO EXCITED!

Thank you so much! I remember seeing the 180 credits on another schools site for their program but not USF's. This makes me feel better! Is this excess surcharge thing is a little odd. I GET why they do it, but in my first degree program, I took ex...

I found that section and it just led me back to the calculator I was looking at before. It only lets me select Spring 2017, at which point I wasn't taking classes at USF (and also the next 2 semesters). It looks like I have 122 credits that transfer...

Is there anywhere that we can use a calculator? I wasn't a USF student previously so I am interested to see how this will impact me. Edit: OK so I found the "excess hours" calculator, but wondering if this won't be accurate until we actually registe...

I've been accepted! woop woop!
