UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

Published

The deadline to apply for UNF's Accelerated BSN program beginning Spring 2013 will be here before we know it (January 15, 2013), which is why I wanted to go ahead and start this topic now. Many of us are taking the TEAS V soon (if we have not already) and finishing up prerequisites (if needed), so I am sure we all have some questions or information to share with each other.

Hey Juliesnow, random question, but what does mean? I see it written all the time but never know what it means! Actually, I think it means I'm getting old and can't keep up with the new slang ;)

Edit - Omg, okay so when I clicked on the post the little wavey guy appeared!! I guess it just doesn't show up on my phone usually! I always just see": wavey :" written out and thought it was like "groovy" for the 2000's lol. Okay, that's my blonde moment for the day :p

Ha ha - lol - thanks for the good laugh this morning

Juliesnow: The community portion was primarily the only thing I didn't like about the program. But that's like saying the car engine is the only thing I didn't like about my car, ya know. It's such a huge part of the program.

A majority of the academics were great. The classes that EVERYONE disliked were the community classes, second semester Nursing Science II (the most boring thing I've ever experienced in life), and leadership. 95% of the professors/instructors were great. Clinicals were great, except for community clinicals (yes, homebase is considered a clinical). The nursing building on campus is clean and awesome, and they had great Simlabs and resources.

Yes, I feel like the program prepared me for my nursing career; however, I feel that the MANY hours spent towards community work could have been better spent learning about other things. In other words, I would have been BETTER prepared for my career had it not been for all of the community work.

For homebase, you give the faculty your home address and they try and put you in the community area that is closest to your home. So they pick it for you, and it's yours for 2 years.

If you have any other questions just let me know.
