All College of Nursing students are required to complete a background check, fingerprints, a drug screening, immunization verification, and verification of health insurance for the College of Nursing via CastleBranch.com. This is not the same as the Medical History Form from USF Student Health Services. The Castle Branch requirements are for all students in the College of Nursing. The College of Nursing has created a Guide to Castle Branch (click to open) which can assist you in the compliance process. Please ensure to review this guide in its entirety, as it contains crucial information and may answer questions on completing College of Nursing compliance requirements. You must complete your background check, drug test, and fingerprints within 21 days after being admitted to the program. Verification of Health Insurance must be completed by INSERT DATE. All other Castle Branch requirements need to be completed by the first day of classes. Please start the process immediately. IMPORTANT: If you have an item that is rejected by Castle Branch, please read their comments on why it was rejected and how to correct. |

Per USF Policy 33-002, it is mandatory for USF students to submit all required immunization documentation and sign the official Medical History Form prior to course registration. A hold preventing registration in hybrid and in-person classes will remain on your account until you have fulfilled the following requirements. This hold will not restrict registration in fully online classes. Therefore, it is recommended you register for your online classes as soon as possible and, if applicable, go back and register for any hybrid or in-person classes you have once the IM hold is removed. Please Note: this is a USF requirement to be completed through Student Health Services before you can register for classes. This process is separate from the College of Nursing's CastleBranch requirements. For questions on this process, please contact Student Health Services at 813-974-4056.

Your Nurse Anesthesiology academic program plan is nine consecutive semesters. You will use your academic plan as a guide to register in your courses throughout the program. Failure to adhere to the program plan can delay your graduation date.
Registration Tips:
Secure Funding for Summer and Fall 2023 Need financial aid? Remember to submit your FAFSA before the January 1 priority deadline to be considered for the most types of aid possible. Many scholarships are needs-based and require a FAFSA. Therefore, it is recommended you complete a FAFSA regardless of whether or not you will be applying for financial aid (including loans). Tuition payment or a university deferment is due on the fifth day of the semester. Please ensure you have funds or a deferment in-place to prevent being canceled from classes for non-payment. Questions regarding Financial Aid can be directed to a Financial Aid counselor.
For assistance or questions regarding payment, please contact the Cashier's Office: https://www.usf.edu/business-finance/controller/student-services/cashiers/index.aspx |

Residency ClassificationsInitial ClassificationWhen you apply to the university, your initial residency classification is determined by the Office of Admissions based on information you provide with your application. The classification is based on the information you provide on your application. Failure to provide all relevant information, including copies of required documents, may lead to an initial classification as an "out-of-state" resident. It is your responsibility to check your residency classification when you are admitted to the University of South Florida. If you feel your initial classification is in error, you have until the last day of the term of admission to contact the appropriate admissions office and request re-evaluation. Once you have completed your first term, you may only request reclassification for future terms. ReclassificationA Request for Reclassification and additional documentation must be submitted to the Office of the Registrar no later than the fifth day of the first week of the semester for which reclassification is sought. There are no exceptions to this deadline. Requests received after the published deadline will be considered for a future term only, and tuition will be assessed at the non-resident rate for that term. Please note, until a decision has been made on your request, you should consider yourself a non-Florida resident for tuition purposes. It is your responsibility to adhere to all fee payment deadlines for the term. If you are approved for in-state residency after payment is made, you will be refunded the out-of-state portion of your fees. If you are submitting a Request for Reclassification for Summer term you must do so by the deadline specified, regardless of when your classes begin. The domicile year for which your request is evaluated is also the same and not depending on your summer class schedule. If you have questions or concerns about your particular circumstances, please email the Office of the Registrar. |
