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.
"Congratulations on your admission to the University of San Francisco!
We are excited that you will be joining us in the School of Nursing and Health Professions for fall 2015. If you have not received your received your formal admission letter, it should reach you this week. Please let us know if you do not already have it." - There was more, but it only had details of classes and the program.
I was BCCed on it. Im not sure if it went out to everyone admitted or just a wave.
So I sent an email to the head nursing transfer counselor asking if we have not heard and were not included on the email today should we assume we didn't get in. Do you think that was ok to ask? Lol
For those of you admitted is your transfer evaluation showing all of ur courses? i called the lady and she said my courses weren't on my transcript... But they are so I'm confused.
Also are u guys going to the event for admitted students on the 30th at the Sacramento campus?
what is the event about? which courses not show up?
its for admitted students to the hilltop campus, they go over course evaluations and u can speak to a adviser there as well for your transfer credits and the next steps to take.
My antomy, physio, speech, psych mostly all the courses aren't showing up. But they show up on my transcript from mud chill under myUSF so it's confusing
well I probably didn't get in then. We will see and i will definitely let you guys know either way.
