UFV Sept 2013

Published

I am starting a thread for UFV, Sept 2013 applicants (thus the title)

I am a Jan 2013 reject and hoping for a spot in the fall. Is anyone here a repeat applicant?

Yeah I originally wanted to do the fast track, but after talking to people currently in the program and graduated nurses, I was kind of convinced otherwise. The workload of the program is extremely intense and apparently the break between years is very much needed. Not to mention if you do the 4 year, you get your 400 or so hours to work in the summer as an ESN (about $25/hr I've heard and a great way to gain experience, which will help when you graduate). For me, I want the break and I'll need to work between years to pay my bills. But if the three year works for you, I say go for it! Would be nice to finish a year earlier!

At the information session I was at we were told that even the fast track students were able to fit the ESN hours into their schedule.

Really?? Hmmm well that could change things!

I wonder if I'd still want the break though....

Anyway, that's something to figure out towards end of first year (or first semester?). She told me in the interview not to worry about it now, and just see how you're doing in the program...then decide from there if you feel comfortable going straight into second year! But I'm definitely more intersted if you can get the ESN hours in. Thanks KimberS!

You're welcome Parastone. There are certainly a few factors to deciding which path to take once we finally hear if we got in. Anybody else counting the days to May 10 with their fingers crossed?
