0Hello,
I was wondering if anyone else had applied to Thomas Jefferson's Fact 1-year program. I wanted to start a thread for prospective students like myself. Good luck to all that have applied!!!
Thank you all! I'm looking forward to meeting everybody! The interview process is very laid back. They interview up to 4 candidates at a time. Jacqueline asks questions like why nursing, why Jefferson, what are the qualities of a good nurse, etc. Then there's a writing assignment that asked if I had a good support system in place and what reservations I had about the program. I interviewed two and half weeks ago so the turnaround time was a little longer than the first round of interviews.
I am hopefully going to apply for their 2 year program (18 months) when they start at their Trevose campus next year and I have one really stupid question. I tried reaching out to admissions but have yet to get a response. For those of you that took Nutrition, was it required to be with a registered dietitian? It doesn't say so in the requirements. Basically, I'm trying to avoid taking Nutrition yet again. Failed it 11 years ago, got an A just this past January...I'd really like to not have to take it a third time because I had no idea it had to be with a registered dietitian. UGH!
Hey KellyannwI don't think it matters. I took mine many moons ago and I doubt it was with a registered dietitian.
I truly hope it hasn't changed. I'm ok with retaking Statistics (just missed the 10 year cut off by one year) because it has been so long, but I've got a pretty full plate with these pre-reqs and I am REALLY hoping I don't have to add Nutrition back in. Some schools require it...and I applied to a program elsewhere for the Fall, their website said nothing about a registered dietitian, but I'm finding out through the grapevine they require it. Also, I am signing up for my summer courses on Monday, so I was hoping I could plot out the rest of my year, but Jeff hasn't answered Thank you so much!!
If any recent FACTers know if this has changed, please chime in :)
