Applying to BCC Jan 2009

[RN2BFawnie]

Hi Everyone,

Anyone else out there applying to Broward Community College for the Jan 2009 start date?!!! :clown:I'm so nervous and the application period hasn't even opened yet!

For those of you who were admitted on the point system, what kind of gpa did you have? Were any of you able to use your HOSA waiver? I know that they have eliminated the waiting list. I am going to meet with an advisor next Friday to look at my transfer credits. I hope I get in!

leavingteaching4rn, did you already finish the program or will you be finishing in aug 2009? also, upon acceptance how many points did you have in total?

thank you

i'm graduating in august.

i don't remember how many points i had, but it would not help you anyway. when i applied, it wasn't as competitive. there were students accepted with gpas as low as 2.7. in fact, admissions and advisors used to tell students, "if you have a 3.0, you'll get in."

however, with the change in the economy, nursing school is attracting people who were not interested in the field before. for instance, i've met men who are leaving construction jobs, business positions, etc. entering into this program.
