I applied to both UF and UCF's Accelerated Nursing Programs for this upcoming summer and was hoping to get some insight on both programs. I already found out that I was accepted to UF (yay!) but I won't hear back from UCF until the day before my UF deposit is due, so I want to have a decision ready just in case.
My first degree is from UF so I'm very familiar with the campus and the city. Several of my friends went through the traditional program and told me it was somewhat unorganized and frustrating at times but I'm assuming this is similar to other programs of similar size. I don't know anyone at UCF, but my long-time boyfriend is a cop in the city so I'm familiar with that area as well.
After getting my BS in nursing I'd like to go on to get a DNP, so I'm looking for a program that will prepare me for a career and an advanced degree. I was raised a Gator and will always be a Gator but if UCF is the better program then I'm prepared to go for it! Any and all advice is appreciated, thanks in advance!
