University of South Alabama, Fall 2014

Published

Is anyone applying to USA for fall 2014.

Email I received today.

The admissions office continues to process the Fall student files and we are processing all the acceptance packet that have been received at this point. We hope to have everyone loaded into the orientation site by tomorrow. In addition we are currently working on sending out course schedules for those who have completed their acceptance packet. You will receive additional information from us in the next few days. The Orientation course site consists 4 general modules and a specialty module. These modules are asynchronous and should not take a large amount of time to complete.

Go Jags,

I guess I spoke too soon! As I finally had time to review my plan of study it was the wrong track!! I got accepted for the Ped Acute Care NP cert program and my plan of study was for the Ped Primary Care NP cert track. Ummm, yeah that's not what I wanted! I hope they fix it cause now I'm just confused :bored:

I activated my jag email and within it was the link for the orientation.

Did anyone get a schedule?

Specializes in ICU.

Me either- just looking at the videos online. Pretty general info.

So how do I know what classes I have to register for?

Am I the only one here who hasn't gotten a JAG email letter yet?

Specializes in ICU.

I never got confirmation that my acceptance package was complete. I did get a jag number and email access. From what I can see in the orientation video is that our schedules are so called personalized... So I don't think any of us know what classes to register for :-/

Specializes in PICU.

Because it doesn't look like they're giving anyone the condensed schedule, we all register for the same 2 classes. We don't branch out to our speciality until this time next year.

I got my schedule via email from Eric but it was just the normal track for PNP. Have you guys looked at the booklist for NUR 607? Am I seeing that correctly in that they have 6 required books? That seems like a lot for one class. Plus, books for Patho, Secure Proctor, Adobe Writer, and our drug and APA books...gonna be expensive!

Anyone try to claim economically disadvantaged status for the scholarship? I'm the "bread winner" for my family of four, but I'm very disappointed they require three years of my parents tax returns in order to claim. My parents taxes are in Spanish from Puerto Rico and my dad tried to find all of his to help me but could only find 2 out of the last 3 years so I guess I'm out of luck.

I also thought it was nuts we needed to submit our parent's taxes. I understand if you're under a certain age but I'm 34. I sent it all in as I support my family of 5. Hope I get a little something!
