I am an undergraduate student at UCF right now and will soon be graduating with my degree in Psychology. I am applying to UF's Accelerated BSN program for Fall 2012.
My first year of college was brutal! My first semester I made 4 Cs and 1 D. My second semester I made 2 Cs and 3 Fs. I had to retake the 3 classes I failed over the summer and I made 3 Cs. So... it has completely ruined my GPA. It seems like no matter how many As I make it barely brings it up.
But, thankfully UF only considers your most RECENT 60 credit hours towards your GPA. This is so great because my overall GPA is only a 2.6, but by the time I'm done taking classes my most recent 60 credit hours GPA will be around a 3.7-3.8.
Is anyone else suffering from a year of bad grades like me?
I wish every other school only considered your most recent 60 credit hours. UF seems like my only real hope to be accepted, but at the same time it's UF... not the easiest school to get into.
I know this may be a little early, but I have a 2 bedrooms in a 4 bedroom/ bath available to sublease this summer. It will be empty and ready for you to move in May 7th, 2012. This is a furnished, all-inclusive apartment located in Lexington Crossing Apartments; each bedroom has its own bathroom, not to mention the 42 inch television in the living area. This apartment building is located near the front of the complex so you are close to the busses that go to campus, routes 34 and 9. The bus stop for Route 35, which runs directly in front of Shands and the Nursing College, is a short walk away. Good luck in you future Nursing endeavors. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at [email protected]
I think there is, but it is going to be hard to be on it... If someone feels crunched for time when normally accepted, I don't know how you get everything done if you have to wait until everyone gives their answers to UF.
My guess is that starting the program in the summer for the first time is what's causing the lack of organization. Hopefully it works out for everyone.......sooner rather than later
I've actually heard some really negative things about the undergraduate nursing programs at UF in general. In terms of organization and communication at least.
i think that goes for any other university/college as well. i've heard bad things about pretty much any other school. it just depends on who you talk to and which year lol
I agree, marta1408, there are always going to be negative comments and thoughts about any program, thats when you have to do your own research and decide for yourself. I have always had great communication with UF, mr. Foote is always willing to email back when I had questions or set up an appointment when I needed to come in to talk about the program.
Oh I think the program will be great and Ken always gets back to me. I just meant in general it's the first year they have started in the summer. UNF is amazingly organized.....USF not so much....but I bet 1000 people will disagree with me lol

haha right? i have different opinions about any college depending on the day that you ask me lol. like i've said before, however, i wish there was a way to check our status online... i think that would make it more organized
