Thomas Jefferson University - Fact 1 & 2 Program (Pre-Fall 2024)

alee · Dec 13, 2023

Hi! Does anyone by chance have an idea of if there are still spots open for the FACT-1 Center City location? I am planning on submitting my application this week but am nervous that the program might already be full.

Hi! My admissions counselor told me that the seats are not typically filled until closer to the final deadline in February, and that applications will continue to be reviewed until the seats are full. Definitely still apply!

Hi! I know someone who actually has an interview today, so I think it's safe to say there are still spots! I would encourage you to still apply up until the deadline. Good luck!

Hi, I am out of state and have started researching online for apartments. I'm still in the beginning stages and am looking to go in person soon to see the options. Yeah I def need to stay within a certain budget but still want to be in a safe area and place. Let me know if anyone here is interested in finding a place together or options you guys know about!

TJU offers some housing! I went to see some of the options a few months ago, one building offered suites and 1 bedrooms for like 1400. Theyre OK but to be honest you can probably get a suite for cheaper. The kitchen in the model I saw was quite small. I'm also researching still but its tricky!

I also just discovered that TJU is in partnership with apartments.com and also offers a way to find TJU roommates who are looking for off campus housing through your student portal login. I have attached the link https://offcampus.jefferson.edu

Happy new years and I hope everyone is doing well! Has anyone heard any updates on provisional status for our program?

Happy New Years! I am wondering that as well and if there is an official start date that will be announced for the program? I believe it is around May but apparently it is not finalized yet? Also does anyone have any information on when we are supposed to do our medical clearances and requirements before the program, I assume getting those clearances will need some time to complete and I have not received any info on that either?

Yup I haven't heard anything either! I'm thinking of reaching out to the dean myself to ask when the official NCLEX scores will be posted. I also believe they said the start date was after Memorial Day, though I'm not entirely certain. Definitely haven't received any info on clearances, etc

There has been an update. The dean has confirmed that they have returned to full approval status! There will be a mass email coming out soon as well as an email on when exactly classes will begin, last time I heard it was May 28th.

I also haven't received any updated information on what we need to do as far as vaccinations/ clearances/ etc. I found the FACT-1 schedule for the school year 2021-2022 I believe online, and their start date had been May 17th, so I am anticipating a mid-May start for our cohort as well!
