Updated:   Published

What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing their experiences with waiting to hear back about acceptance into nursing programs, specifically the FNP program at the University of Florida. Some members are expressing frustration at the lack of communication and delays in receiving decisions, while others are sharing updates on when waitlisted individuals can expect to hear back. Additionally, there is a subgroup forming study groups and sharing information about getting off the waitlist for specific tracks within the program.

Hey everyone! Making this forum for anyone planning on applying to UF for Fall 2025! Applications are opening soon-ish and wanted to start the conversation! 

I'm planning on applying for AGACNP part time.

update for waitlist people: I got an email from the school of nursing, and they said that we could be notified all the way up to the first week of August if we are selected off the waitlist. We will also all get an email after the first week of August once they have closed the waitlist.

That's great information! Thank you! August ?! Wow. I was thinking by May they would give us a final decision.

I got a response saying people on waitlist have until July to find out if they've been accepted or not! The wait is horrendous !

I just got an email today saying wait listed folks should find out no later than mid June (acute care track)

just out of curiosity, is there ANYONE out there that has gotten off the waitlist for any track? Trying to gauge if there aren't any spots for my track, or if they're trying to decide who to offer spots to.

Hi everyone! I got an email this morning that I got off the waitlist for the pediatric acute care part time! I can't believe it. Good luck to everyone. There is hope! LOL

Congrats! That's amazing! Who sent it so I can keep an eye out? Also, I'm wondering if they'll let you know if you haven't gotten off?

It came from the University or Florida. Looks like it is from the same email I got from when I was put on the waitlist

@saracaroline98 Congratulations!! That is so exciting! Do you feel like you did anything during the waiting period that improved your application? (e.g., emailed them expressing continued interest, certifications, or classes?)

Thank you so much! I did send an email back when I originally got wait listed, just stating that UF is my first choice and I will continue to be interested. But that's it!
