I wanted to start an offical thread for those applying to UF's accelerated BSN for the Summer of 2021! I know its still pretty early but I thought we could use this platform to support one another and share our own journeys through this process.
I am pretty nervous for this process. However, UF's hollistic approach toward each of its applicants gives me hope and reassurance.
Just a little about myself
I am currently finishing my last semester at USF. My last 60 hr credit GPA is pretty average as per UF's usual standards standing at about a 3.4. My cumulative is not too great so hopefully I am not penalized for having a low overall GPA. I have research experience and a publication to my name so hopefully that may hold some weight. Besides that, I have a lot of various volunteer experiences that are non-health care related.
I was specifically curious to know how much weight health care experience holds for admissions. I worked as a scribe for about one year where I was able to gain perspective into the nursing field eventually influencing my decision to pursue nursing. Besides that, I don't really have very much experience working directly with nurses or CNA's for that matter.
I was also curious to know more about the HESI A2 test if anyone knows more about that.
I would love to hear about everyone elses stats and experiences, how you are going about the admissions process in general.
Congratulations to you, I’m still waiting to hear back myself... I dunno... ?
Either way, it's a good sign that we'll know soon! I bet you got in- everyone here has great stats and something to be proud of themselves for, accepted to UF or not.

Yeah, but still...even if I'm denied I would like to be treated like everyone else and not left out. This actually bugs me more than the wait itself.
I've been here with y'all reading the threads and hoping. I GOT IN TOO OMG. I am still literally shaking. I graduated with a degree in physical therapy from UF and have been a therapist for the last 18 years. I will go on to be an oncology NP. I am beyond excited.

Thank you for the positive words, I’m still waiting to know... ? I wonder if I should call ---------------------..?

Me too... This is not a good feeling we’re left with, ugh...
I keep refreshing my email, I still haven’t received anything. My mind is going to a dark place now and I feel that al the admitted students will know today and all the denied students will know tomorrow or Friday ?
