I created this thread for anyone who applied/applying/got accepted to USF BSN or program. If anyone has any insight, words of wisdom, or anything else that might be useful, it would be much appreciated. Here is a little info about myself to kick this off...
I am currently living in the SF bay area and Im finishing off a few courses before I transfer to a 4 year college next semester. I applied for USF's BSN fall 15 program and here are some of my STATS:
*Academics: I have a 3.8 in my prereqs and a 3.5 (overall) GPA.
*Experience/Volunteer Work: I am a Army veteran with 8 years of experience in health care. ( I have worked in the ICU & ER, at Brooke Army Medical Center for about 6 months. Went on several humanitarian missions which consisted of providing medical aid to rural communities in developing countries. I've also done a tour in Afghanistan, working in a combat support hospital.)
* Personal statement: Writing has never been my strong suit... :-/.. but I wrote it in story format (based on my deployment) and how the values of the military compliment USF's core values.
*Letter of Recommendation: My human anatomy instructor (PhD)
Lastly, I'll keep everyone posted on my application status if any future students want to use this thread as a point of reference.
Nothing here too. It looks like they are inviting admitted students already to visit the campus and stuff. Some of my friends are sending in their rsvp s.
Finding out by April 1st and receiving admission by mail just doesn't make sense to me. That would mean that admissions should be in the mail now or by tomorrow probably, but we also haven't heard anything about them actually having been sent out. It just doesn't make sense to me anymore.
Correct for me too. I don't know if there are any transfer nursing applicants who have received their decision yet! It is so strange as you said ....just a few more days left before April 1.
Actually I just read their Instagram where they said "Out by April 1" so I guess they'll be mailed out by April 1st? But that means some of us wouldn't find out till 2nd week of April and that's so late it sounds wrong
Hmm yeah your in socal so you will get it in 4-5 days. I relaly don't know what to do. I have been training my mind to stay calm and just wait :). Not working....
