I haven't seen a thread for this application cycle yet, so thought I'd start one.

IDK bc its legit saying I’m short ONE credit in that section. Don’t remember the exact number but it’s saying “39 taken, 1 needed, 40 overall needed” or smthing like that 

I believe the most important things are that you have a Bachelor's Degree, have fulfilled your GEP requirements, and are registered as a second degree-seeking student. Here's a screenshot from my degree audit:

 

My case is slightly different—I have not fulfilled the University Residency Requirement because I have a Bachelor's degree from another school and took most of my prerequisites outside of UCF. If it was the case that I had to fulfill the residency requirement to be eligible for the ABSN program, then I'd have to take 10+ random classes at UCF, which would be completely unreasonable. 

Even if UCF considers you to be one credit shy for the Upper Level Semester Units requirement, you will have the opportunity to fulfill that requirement when take upper-division classes in the nursing program.

Side note, the upper-level semester units requirement differs from school-to-school. For example, while UCF requires 48 credits, USF only requires 42 credits:

It'd be pretty messed up if a transfer from USF wasn't eligible because their upper-division requirement was six credits less than UCF's requirement. ?

I think the audit is for graduation from the UCF.

All my stuff turned green. I guess it's figuring itself out ?

I now have four green check marks, and my application was submitted on January 14th!

[pollar1, BSN]

I caved in and emailed them (probably adding to their overwhelming amount of emails about applications) because my official transcripts were sent in kind of late and they haven’t been reflected on my Knight account. They assured me that it can truly take 6-8 weeks for them to evaluate each application and that this is only week 3 after the deadline.

 

So if you’re like me and still don’t have that 4th green check mark, that is normal!

Nothing wrong with emailing them! They lost my transcripts from one of the schools I attended and if it wasn’t for me pestering I would have never known because it said processing online. I basically had to resend my transcripts and emailed them directly to a contact in the registrar office.

Alrighty I’ll give a try. I’m applying to USF, UNF (my TEAS works for them), FAU, NOVA, and Miami Uni for the ABSN so hopefully I get into one ?

Did you apply to all the schools through the nursing cas or individual sites? It is all so overwhelming..

hello all! I am hoping someone can answer this question as I feel bad emailing UCF nursing since I already have a billion times LOL. SO, I took both Human Nutrition (the one ore req we need) as well as clinical nutrition (which is a higher course I happen to need for my major. ) I am so dumb and completely forgot I took the regular human nutrition which I got an A in, and only put my clinical nutrition grade which was a B on the pre-req part of the application. Do you think they will see my transcripts and see I actually got an A and will use that towards my GPA? It would help my pre-req GPA by a lot.

I would email them and tell them to correct your application.

Yes you are right. I guess I am just hoping I can save the embarrassment by telling them I messed up.
