Hi All,
Started this thread in anticipation of the March 1st deadline for applications to the University of San Francisco Nursing Program (Fall 2017). This is my second time applying and I am hoping is my last time lol. Anyways if you want to chat about the process don't be shy. I've been looking on past threads and was on one for last semester (Spring 2017) and found this to be helpful even though I didn't get in @USFCA. My stats are listed below if anyone is intrested to take a look. The only variables I have changed since my last application was me finishing psychology, art history, and california history.
Stats
I also volunteer at a local hospital once a week for 4 hours (Started last August). I have 4.5 years EMT experience. I'm only currently taking sociology for this semester and this will be the first time I've not taken at least 12 units at my community college. Look forward to your responses!!!!
For those who have committed to USF for Fall 2017, do your clinicals start Spring'18? On my acceptance packet it said I will start in Spring due to there not being enough space this fall.
It isn't because it is full. Everyone attending usfca has to take nurs120 and nurs170 before starting any clinicals. I did the nursing tour before my acceptance and they were extremely clear that all Transfer students won't do clinicals the first semester. You can always call to ask what "not enough space" was in reference too.
Hi guys! I applied for the fall 2017 nursing program for USFCA in Sacramento! wanted to create a space for discussion.
I applied last year in fall 2016 and received a rejection.
My stats meet the minimum requirement, but still VERY low for nursing (messed up my grades in early college freshman year)
3.1 GPA
3.0 in science GPA
no volunteer (I recently applied for sutter volunteer but that does not start until June after applications close, so I did not list this on my app)
i really hope that my personal statement along with the other 2 required essays help me stand out.
look forward to chatting with you all!
APPLICATION DEADLINE: JUNE 15
Have you received a response yet? The June 15 deadline for fall 2017 program cuts it so close but I got my application in on June 01. I was told we may not receive notification until August but I am on pins and needles...checking status daily!! All other posts refer to USF SF Campus...Good luck:)
@ninjagurl no! I have not.. have you? I called the campus and they told me that my application is COMPLETE and I should be receiving something in the mail by next week. please keep me updated if you hear anything back!! its causing a lot of anxiety, haha! yes, all of the other forums are for SF campus, so I created one for sacramento but surprisingly no one is commenting. good luck to you too!! I will keep you updated
Hi Jocelynriri,thanks for starting this thread.I did apply for this Fall 2017 and was told we will be hearing back from the school by July ending.I called again last week and was told to check my mail that I would be receiving a package but up till now I have not received anything.And the admissions coordinator had told me that,orientation is 08/07/17 and lectures rewound resume on 08/28/17.I have not received any package nor rejection email and my status on the website has not been updated.So I am in the same boat like you guys.Any update?
