Valencia/UCF Concurrent Spring 2019

[scobyroo]

Hey guys,

I'm starting a thread for anyone planning on applying to the Valencia/UCF concurrent nursing program for spring 2019. The applications open online in 10 days (but who's counting?!)

I've also applied for the Valencia traditional program, but plan on doing the concurrent program if I am accepted. I'm thrilled to finally be done with prereqs and the TEAS, but now begins the agonizing waiting period. How about you all?

Has your status changed at all? I know we're getting close to decision time. Mine still is green and says "under review," but I'm curious if I should be expecting to see it change to "eligible" before acceptances go out.

Not yet. It's still marked as "under review" for me too, but it should change to "eligible" before decisions go out.

I'm genuinely shocked that no one else has joined in on this thread.. less applicants this time around..? lol, dare to dream...

I haven't been too nervous until now, as I'm still waiting for the status to change to 'eligible.' My stats are good, but its nerve-racking worrying that maybe I missed a class or something.. just another week or so..

[Shaybears]

I feel the same way! It makes me wonder if there's less applicants or perhaps people aren't as nervous this time around? Who knows... The Seminole State/UCF thread is way more active.

Do you know when admission notices went out last year?

[scobyroo, ASN, RN]

Yeah, the spring 2018 VCC-UCF thread said acceptances went out Oct 11 and the 2017 thread said they went out Oct 10.. so it seems that UCF is pretty consistent with the acceptances. We should be hearing in another week.

I actually just found that SSC-UCF thread today. I'm really surprised to see how many people are on there but not here. It was reading that people on that thread had their statuses changed to 'eligible' that got me so nervous. Maybe they update the SSC statuses before they get to Valencia.. who knows.

[Shaybears]

Oh, that makes me feel so much more relieved! That means by this time next week, we should have an answer.

I actually applied to both schools. The application for SSC/UCF was due before the VCC/UCF, so it makes sense that their status changed first. I actually received an e-mail asking me which program I had preferred about a week ago. So, I'm hoping that admissions decisions for both schools come out around the same time.

[scobyroo, ASN, RN]

It does seem odd that we would hear in a week when SSC had an earlier application deadline, but that is when they have sent them out the past 2 years, so maybe Valencia just has a shorter turn around with the applications. Fingers crossed for us both!

[scobyroo, ASN, RN]

My status just changed to eligible, within the past hour or two! Looks like things are moving along.

Hey you guys. I also applied to VCC concurrent program but at the time I didn't see a post created for this yet.

[scobyroo, ASN, RN]

Hey guys!

Check your email. I just got an acceptance email from UCF!

[Shaybears]

Hey everyone!

I received my acceptance e-mails from both Valencia and UCF!

Congrats Shaybears! I'll be seeing you at orientation then.

Congrats Shaybears! I'll be seeing you at orientation then.

Congratulations to you too! I feel like a giant weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I'm so stinkin' happy!
