May I ask why did you chose them?

Aida0801 · Dec 21, 2015

Graduation2016 · Dec 22, 2015

Are you planning on going to one of the Puerto Rico campuses or Orlando?

Aida0801 · Dec 22, 2015

I am planning on attending the one in Miramar Florida

Graduation2016 · Dec 22, 2015

Well, I go to Metro Orlando. Just finished my BSN this past Saturday after a lot of heartache and frustration. I don't know how it is over in Miami. In Orlando the program is fairly new, we are the 2nd nursing graduating class so there is a lot of disorganization still. How long has the one in Miramar been on? And just making sure, you are fully bilingual right? A lot of people don't know they have to speak, write and read both English and Spanish to attend SUAGM.

Aida0801 · Dec 22, 2015

Yes i am Fully bilingual. The one in Miramar is also new. They are supposed to call me back to see when the classes start and they still havent. i called a couple of times and they still have not returned my call. Is the program difficult? does it give you flexibility to go to school and also work? I was a student at university of southernmost florida. The school that was affiliated to Dade Medical College. I don't know if you heard the news but it closed from one day to the other, and now i need to start again the nursing courses all over again. So they told me about this school that its accredited and the entrance test is a bilingual one, not a HESI or KAPLAN or TEAS but i don't want to go though the same issues again thats why i am trying to gather more information. I was also told that at Ana G Mendez the bachelor even though its an accelerated program, it takes very long!!! I have lost so much time already with all this situation of the school closure that having to start all over again from the nursing courses makes me feel i'll never finish, therefore since i need to start again might as well do it at a school were my credits can be tranferable

Well, it took me 3.5 years to complete my BSN. I had only 4 classes transferred so I pretty much did it at SUAGM. Yes, entrance exams are in Spanish and English to see where you're at because you will need at least 2 English classes and 2 Spanish ones (used to be 4 of each), no math entrance test though, at least not whenI started. also they now eliminated Humanities 2. Have any classes graduated yet? The first one it Orlando graduated this past June and they had so many issues with their paperwork for NCLEX. Took forever. There are many things they have to improve. A lot of the teachers don't even speak proper English and it is very dumb to me to pay someone to teach me something g in a language in which I should be teaching them. Frustrating. Wait until the open back after the holidays and see what they offer you. Let me know if you have any other questions. The program does use HESI as a review for NCLEX. Not sure if they will start using it as an entrance exam since they also don't do the TEAS either. (Maybe they should). Good luck!

Hello I would like to know if you already pass your NCLEX, and what advises you give for those who are also in Ana G Mendez Metro Orlando? I will graduate in 2018 but I am afraid of so many things such as the pass rates, and the school accreditation getting affected because of that.

Graduation2016 · Oct 26, 2016

Hello, yes, I passed my NCLEX in May. To the current students my only advice is to keep up with their HESI quizzes and tests. It'll help you to pass the HESI at the end of each semester and in a way prepare you for NCLEX. Do not start freaking out about NCLEX just yet. Worry about HESI right now. Reality is that there is no NCLEX if you don't pass HESI first, so that should be the priority. Regarding the credentials, I honestly don't know how it works. Only 3 classes have graduated already and less than 10 people (according to what I have been told), have passed NCLEX, so I don't know how this affects the accreditations. Hopefully they can have more people pass soon so the passing rates don't get too affected. Best of luck!
