Any Miami Dade College students going for the acceler. or Generic option fall 2009?

I am a mdc nursing student and I heard that there has been @1000-1100 applicants for the generic program. When I went to orientation in November they had told us @800 people had applied. They take about 160 students for the program. You should find out within the next two weeks or so. I found out about a week or so after their application deadline if I remember correctly. They r finishing up final grades this week. So next week I hear they start going over the applications. Good luck! I know how u feel waiting.

Does anybody know anything about the CHM1033 instructors this summer@ North??

I was just reading that soon the new deadline is coming up and everyone will be getting their letters! I thought the worst part was the wait to get into the program, but then comes the wait to get the test grades, and the wait to see if you passed, and the wait to take the exams, and the waiting is going to last a long time.....and it is so stressful. The whole program is so stressful, but I know it is well worth it. I just can not wait for Dec.....I am looking forward to passing everything on my first try and graduating this year.

Jessica1024,

I got my grades for the semester already miami dade posted today. 5/2/09
I was excited because I did extremely well but i am still scared cause I have not acceptance letter as of yet So now to go check the mail everyday for the next 30 days...........Which program did u apply for?

Hi,

I wanted to find out from a current student...when and how long are you usually off in the summer if starting the fall before.

Thanks!!!

I currently have a 2.75 GPA and should have a 3.23 by the end of the summer semester. I want to apply for the jan/2010 generic nursing program at MDC, but am worried my 3.23 won't cut it. Will my fall classes count towards their consideration or will the grades not be in on time? If someone could please let me know I would really appreciate it. I called the medical campus and asked what the average GPA they accepted into the program was and they told me that the last semester the lowest GPA they accepted was a 3.5. So I am really scared!!!! Anyone have any insight?

Well Lilliette, if you're going to apply for Jan-2010 just know that your fall classes won't factor in because the deadline for the Jan program is Sept 1st. One of the advisors told me that you need to have at least a 3.5 to get in.

Shen06,

I wonder if anyone with a 3.5 has applied and ever been rejected? I can believe alot of ppl have atleast a 3.5 ....hmmmmm makes me wonder. I have a 3.53 and applied to the PART TIME PROGRAM and I am thinking about bitting my nails in order to alleviated the pressure LOL When are they going to start sending out notices is my question?

I guess I'll apply and pray but won't get my hopes up ...guess I'm looking at the Fall '10 program, by then it will be much higher. Are there any other accredited RN programs in Miami, FL??
