2012 UNF Accelerated BSN Hopefuls

U.S.A. Florida

Published

Hey Everyone-

I haven't seen a thread for the UNF 2012 Accelerated BSN yet so i figured I would create one. The previous classes seemed like they got a lot out of sharing with one another so hopeful we can do the same. Feel free to share any information you have, where you are in the application process or just any woes or worries. Let try to help each other along in this stressful process.

Later and good-luck,

Eric

denied. i know i did not do very well on my interview

At ae2awmailey - mine still says Departmental Refer.....not counting on that but that is what it says now. Again best of luck!

mine still says departmental referral... we'll see I guess. Best wishes to everyone on their next steps!!

Anyone that still says departmental referral...did you apply for traditional or accelerated? I'm just wondering if maybe they are working on one track at a time. Mine also still says departmental referral and I applied for accelerated.

I applied for accelerated.

I applied for the accelerated and mine still says departmental referral. In a way it is comforting, yet nerve-racking. Does it mean wait listed? No one has reported that it changed to "accepted" yet. According to Facebook, the letters are in the mail. I hope they arrive tomorrow.

It occurs to me, my fellow regular track candidates who have been turned down, that applying for the program during the summer is an exercise in futility. They offer both the accelerated AND the regular tracks during the summer, but if someone fails to get into the accelerated program, they are automatically offered a position in the regular track. This puts us at a serious disadvantage; people applying for the accelerated track get two chances to fail or succeed, if you will. As far as I can tell, there is no accelerated program offered in the fall. After taking stock in my current situation, I have rededicated myself to getting in this fall.

You are right - UNF only offers the accelerated for a summer start. I talked to a lot of students in the traditional program who said they applied for both summer and fall before getting accepted in the fall. Hope it works out well for you - good luck!

I'm trying to be a good sport about this, but it is really hard.

Has anyone heard any Admitted decisions for the 27 people that got into the accelerated program?

Anyone have a new status?
