hey, i applied for the summer and i went through the interview process and all so if you have any questions just let me know!
That's great for you congrats ... What was your gpa and how was he interview like
Thank you! My overall gpa was 3.77 and my pre reqs gpa is 3.81. The interview was really quick! Mines lasted 5 minutes top. They asked scebarios and ethical questions. Though they will probably change the interview questions the fall. I heard that they do a point system. They give you a certain number of points for both of your gpas and they give you points based on your interview and if you get over 18 points you get in the program. What is your gpa?
My gpa over all is a 3.47 but I'm taking microbiology so I have a chance to bring it all to a 3.5 if I get An A at the end of this semester. I my science gpa should be higher like a 3.6 I'm not sure
Do you have a back up plan if you don't get an interview?
Yeah I'm also applying to famu

Hi, I just put my application in today for fall.
Oh, and because it will be asked, my overall GPA is 3.95 and my prereq GPA is 4.0.
I have no backup plan. All the other somewhat close nursing schools have deadlines that have already passed. I'm looking on the USF website to find different possible careers.
you have a pretty good shot. i applied to ucf and fgcu as back up. you could always try for the spring

Hey guys!!! I'm applying to the fall program this year. I'm also finishing my micro lecture/lab and some fkl classes to bump up my gpa. I currently have a 3.33 overall gpa but a 3.66 in the usf gpa system? Not sure what my pre req gpa is or how to calculate it to tell you guys. Just an average of the prereqs? Anyways, I don't have a back up. This is the most nerve wracking process of my life. All the other schools already had their deadlines and I don't want to leave the tampa area. I'm gonna see other career options if I don't get in. Any recommendations for alternative careers that will let my degree be worth something? lol. I'm an avid reader on this website, and will take any advice and communication with y'all. It will keep me sane - more than being in the journey alone.
do you remember some of the questions specifically? When do you hear back from them to see if you were accepted?
why do you want to be a nurse, they asked an ethical question, what qualities do you posses over another student, but im pretty sure they are gonna change the questions for the fall group. My interview was on monday and i got the results on friday.
