Hi! This is a thread for anyone applying for August 2012 class at Broward College for the generic nursing track. I deferred my seat so I will be starting in August. I haven't decided if I want to go to central or south yet.. I'm super excited about starting in August! If I could help anyone with anything feel free to ask! :)

I find myself checking it everyday and the application period hasn't even ended yet lol :(

Don't check until a month after the application close date., around june 15th. check your bc email. Good luck:)

Hi I applied to the August program also. Now to start the waiting process. Hard to believe there is still 5 more days till the applications close. :)

Yeah exciting! I deferred to August and I'm counting down the days

Did you apply to any other schools. I am looking into FAU and Nova. I'm trying to remain positive but I feel like I have a better chance of being accepted in January once the new math requirement is implemented.

I only applied to BCC. Not fond of putting all my eggs into one basket but South campus is very close to my home so it will work well for me with working husband and small baby to take care of.

Don't be nervous, with those points and that HESI score you will be fine, all three campuses are accepting applicants so they will be accepting more than they did for May, in May there were 333 and they accepted (153) and that was for two campuses. Even if many people deferred not everybody did so there will be some space.

Thank you for the reassurance.

I'm planning to go to south too! I'm in the same boat as you. South is close to my house and I have a working husband and a newborn. Good luck!!

Hello. It's nice to see I'm not the only one in my position. Hope to see you at orientation. :)

Hi Everyone!!

I deferred my seat so I will be starting in August. I am hoping to go to central. Does anyone know when they will send out the Emails for the orientation date?

Good Luck to all!!!!!!!!

It appears that they let you know about 3 weeks to 1 month after applications close. That date is tomorrow. So probably an email early to mid june

Hi Everyone,

I placed my application for the August 2012 generic nursing program. I completed all my pre-reqs at Miami Dade College. I have a 3.34 GPA. I recieved a 92% on the HESI (I averaged all 5 scores that BC looks at). According to the Limited Access Application Information Page I was awarded a total of 10 points. 9 for the GPA and 1 for Broward Resident. I am hoping that this will be enough to get in to the Program. Hope to see you all in August.

Good luck

Hi everyone,

I started in May of this year. It has been very interesting so far BUT it is a lot of work. When they tell you that you will not have time for anything else, believe it. I have not slept good since I started. I do not know, maybe it's because I started in the summer term which you know is very fast paced. You have to study, study, study, assignments and practice your clinical skills ALL the time. Needless to say I cannot wait to get to the Hospital and start working. Make sure Nursing is something you want to do or else your not going to like it. Those of who are going to take the HESI test, just study and it'll be fine; do not panic. I do not think it was that hard as everyone was saying. Those of you that start in August, start reading the fundamentals book, Infection and Control is a good chapter to start reading and try reading the first few chapters as well. I have my first test today and it's on 11 chapters so it's good you start reading ahead. You do not have to but at least when you go to class, you will be prepared. I wish everyone the best of luck:).
