UCF 2013 Fall-Orlando generic BSN applicants?

Starting a thread for others applying to this program!

Just making sure, if we took the TEAS at UCF we didn't have to send the scores when applying correct ?

[atyrell]

No. They send it to CON for us. I asked the lady at the desk before I took it just in case so there was no problems.

[jv713]

Thanks ^_^ that's what I thought as well.

I also confirmed it with the advisor at the time of submitting my application. If taken at UCF, the CON is sent the score automatically.

Also, if anything was missing in your application they would have emailed you by now. They do so called preliminary check. My friend received such email and had to send them the original score because apparently it was missing in their database.

[jv713]

Oh well that's good that they do such a check. That would be so upsetting if you were denied just because they didn't receive something like that. :)

@atyrell

I have no idea how many applicants applied. My guess is around 500-600? I also wonder how strong the applicant pool is.....

[Go Knights]

For the basic program last year, when I applied, they said at orientation that over 700, nearly 800 people applied to the basic program, but a lot of people do get "thrown out" immediately because of their TEAS or issues with prereqs or suprisingly a lot of people fail out of the drug test after they've been accepted.

Also, there was a maximum of 120 people in my class at the start last year...a bit less now that we are in the second semester. But, the lecture room doesn't hold more people than that, so definitely not even close to 200 people be accepted!

[Nursowiczka2b]

You're right Go Knights, 120 sounds correct. I made a mistake saying before that it was 200.

So many number to come across during this process. Lol

How is it going for you in the program?

[Go Knights]

Nursowiczka2b, it's been going really well so far! Obviously a ton a hard work and very time consuming, but the professors are wonderful and clinicals are the best part of each week with a variety of opportunities! I have no complaints, but I'm sure my sleep deprived, constant junk food eating body would totally disagree lol

[Katsmeow]

How do they prepare you for NCLEX? Like do they use The ATI assessments?

[atyrell]

That is not really a lot of people to be accepted. I just hope this new processes they are using really helps.

Getting nervous! Has anyone received a letter for interviews yet?
