Hello Guys!
I know in years past there have been threads created where people could share their stats and discuss the application process. The window to apply for Fall 2016 is right around the corner (Jan. 15 - Feb. 15) and I was surprised to not find a thread.
If you feel like sharing:
Overall GPA-
TEAS-
Prereq GPA-
I will add mine separately from the post! I hope we are all accepted and are able to turn this thread into a place where we can help each other out through the application and waiting processes!
Hi everyone i just joined this site to get some helpful information.Im a foreign student who got my citizenship not too long ago and started school.Im very much interested for BSN program at UcF and wonder if i need to get my AA first or just the 8 pre reqs required.Also where are the classes going to be ,would it be at COcoa? Thanks so much
Hey Princess.
You do not need to get your AA, but you need to complete 7 out of the 8 pre-requisites, along with all the "general education" courses (such as comp 1, humanities, etc) in order to be eligible to apply.
Also, UCF offers many BSN programs, depending on when you would like to start. Fall BSN programs are in the Orlando campus. If you want to attend Cocoa or Daytona campus, their program starts in the spring.
Go to the UCF Nursing homepage and look at the dates applications open, when to apply, and they also provide statistics on the GPAs/Test scores each program takes.
UCF Orlando accepts around 130 students. Cocoa and Daytona accept around 30 or so.
Thank you etorr I was planning to call them on monday but its nice to clear things out in advance from somebody who know.I totally appreciate it I only need to get dev psychology and nutrition hopefully this summer and hoping to get into the program this coming spring .Again thank you!!!
No problem!
This website should take you directly to where you can review their application dates and all the things you need to do to apply!! Application Deadlines | UCF College of Nursing
I strongggggly suggest to make an advising appointment with a nursing adviser (you do not need to be a UCF student to make an appointment with them), you will have to email them your transcripts (which you can just screenshot) and they can answer all your questions, tell you general info, and let you know if you're on the right track!!! If you can, also attend a UCF Nursing session at UCF or if you are at valencia they have many meetings there too
The cost really depends on your exact situation. I am an out of state student, but I have a scholarship that reduces my tuition to the same as in state. If you qualify as an in-state student then there are a number of other scholarships you can apply for. I'm going to second etorr's suggestion of making an appointment with a nursing advisor, an advisor would be able to help you with all of your questions and will have better and more accurate answers than most of us on this thread can provide.

I just called their office. They said if we are a transfer student then we must complete both a general transfer orientation, and obviously the nursing orientation too!
Haha yes... Well "Etorr" is the First letter of my first name and "torr" is my last name minus two letters! Hopefully there is just one Kristin (or kirstine, sorry) so that'll make it easier to find you!!
I am so excited I feel like I can barely sleep at nights haha
