Florida National College ASN 1 year program

U.S.A. Florida

Published

Hello to all,

I'm interested in the ASN program at fnc. I would like to know the opinions from the current students and grads. I contacted the adm. office and this is what they mention to me. The program is regionally accredited (SACS). The program is a 1 year program. Classes are from M-F from 4-10. Clinicals are on weekends. The next start date is May 2011. There is a TEAS test to pass w/t min. passing rate of 75% and there is also a interview. The cost for each credit is $525, so approx it is $24,000 for the 46 credits needed to graduate. The program first started last year 2009 and the first class to take the NCLEX made 100%.

I would like to know from those in the program:

What material can I use to pass the TEAS?

How was the interview and what question do they ask?

How are the classes and clinincals?

For those who are almost done with the program or have already graduated:

Do you feel prepare for the NCLEX?

Everyone interested in the program is welcome to comment!

Ok! I just finished my second semester and it was a little challenged. Yes Leonardo you have to have $350 for ati's, which are test, books are depends buy them in amazon.com

cpe0619 peds and OB are easy. It is the same book half is peds, half is OB.

MED SUR is challenged but it is smooth, Amador was my professor for pharmacology and med sur1. And she is great.

Now I am moving to my 3rd semester and will finish in December 2011.

Amador is going to be med sur 2. We have psycho, and research I don't know who is going to be our professor

Med sur 1 and 2 use the same book half and half too

clinicals are getting harder and harder. And Oneida the director is not letting anyone to make changes and people are having a lot of difficulties with work and family.

If you have any question let me know I am here to help

hi everybody yes! I just finished the second semester and I am very happy, the last day final hands on: math calculation 20 questions, again head to toe assessment:mad::mad: and 2 clinical stations.

leonardoaguila yes for the 3rd semester we have to choose between clinical and family or work. everybody is mad with Oneida "the director", I think they are going to replace her because she is very unprofessional and she makes new rules every second. be careful with her. she likes when everybody is in panic and she loves to see students cry. and as you; everybody has to work, but she does not understand even she has other job in other hospital. people with kids she does not understand and from now on changes between students are not allowed it. when we started it everything was amazing because we help each other and she was not the director she was just a simple assistant, please get together with ur classmates since the first day of class and fight because you are paying a lot of money and every school in Miami has flexibility with clinical except Florida National College. and then they want us to do the bachelors there. let me tell you; no one in my class is going to do it there just for the reason of Oneida. I am sorry I don’t have a face book page cuz I am very busy :bugeyes:

RNstudentRS clinicals the first semester were really good you can change them, move to group to group. it was a lot of flexibility, the second semester Oneida the ex assistant and new director started changing everything around. the second semester people were imploring in their knees and she changed some people and no others depend of her mind. for the 3rd semester we are very scare she said no more changes; any day of the week at any hour is going to be a clinical. people with kids and jobs and other compromises are crying and suffering. but do not worry she is going to get fired very soon. as a told to the first blogger get together since the first day, find friends in class and send a letter to the school because we cannot tolerate this behavior for so irresponsible person as Oneida the director is.

ok 1000 dollars for ATI books, drug test, cards for hospitals some , others u have to pay again but it is just 5 dollars, id's, chequeo medico, among others that i don't remeber, not u have to pay ur fisical examination.

orientiencion is boring just the rules and regulations. they explain better what is the money for.

books buy they in amazon a lot of shipper

first semester famacology, fundamentals, assesment. get your calculations ready and head to toe assessment in ur heart because is going to hunt u in the future
