Hi everyone,
I've been a lurker on allnurses for years, and finally am finishing up school to move forward for my Associates at Broward. Unfortunately, they have totally thrown a monkey wrench in the pre-req requirements, and now I'm going to have to wait until Jan 2015 possibly to get into that program!!!!! I have all pre res done except for the new math, CHM and new Micro pre-req. This is devastating. I'm wondering though, is it possible to take the Micro and Lab in the summer and somehow slip in for the August 2014 program, or am i bananas?
I'm going to the North campus orientation on Wednesday then I'll defer my seat. I want to get as much information out of it as possible and see if they'll give out the syllabi so I'll know what to read and be more prepared for the January term.I've been so miserable this whole weekend, this decision to defer SUCKS but it has to be done!
I'm sooo sorry to hear that you'll be deferring your seat, but it's better to be safe than sorry..like you said take the time to read, and get your things in order. I know that you were excited to start but this not the end of the road for you just merely a minor bump, but do what's best for you!
Nelly_XoX I deferred my seat from May.You have to go to all orientations/pre-admission meetings again.Do not hand in paperwork until they ask you when you start in Jan.Also you do not need to reapply or do anything just keep looking on my BC like you did this time, it will just say preadmission again when they do applications for the Jan seats.They will automatically roll your seat over you do not need to do anything.Just look on there like you did this time.Dont forget to accept pre admission email like you did this time(when they send it)also don't forget to go to the pre-admission.

I completely understand! I think I will have to defer my seat until January as well. All of this prep work before is expensive and I have some bills that I need to take care of so I can start the program with more financial stability. I hate to have to make this decision and am doing so kicking and screaming.. it is devastating to me and I have literally cried about it ... but it is what is is. :-(
I could be wrong on this one. I don't think they will let you defer after the orientation. You literately deferring your seat a month before the program actually starts. Registration is already over. It has been about a month since the pre-admission session, and I am pretty sure most of us are barely halfway through with their requirements such as certificates, physical, drug test and so on. Those requirements are proving to be tough and time consuming. I can't really see them take a student who missed both orientations into the program with a month to get ready. Again, I could be wrong. I don't know how they will address your case. If they do defer your seat, which I believe they should since they don't have a deadlines to defer... They shouldn't have a replacement for you. It's sad because you won't be able to start with us.

Thank you for the info!!!
You should defer ASAP because you're holding up a seat someone else could be having. You have to go to another orientation meeting as well. Someone will always put reading lists and book lists up. But more importantly. Take the times to get the paperwork together and get that out of the way. And just wait for the start date
I don't think they will give anyone seats now anyway because the deadline for all of the medical tests and everything is Aug. 1st.

We're doing what's best and it'll all pay off. I think by January my mind set and financial issues will be stable to start the program; no need to start the program stressed out and worried about other things. Especially since this program will already be enough stress once we start. I cried my eyes out when I made this decision on Friday, I even cried again this morning and I'll probably cry again next week lol but hey I think we're making the right choice.

I can imagine how you feel. I'd bawl my eyes out too if i had to defer but you have to do what you can with the LEAST bit of stress possible. Id say to give the thought one more comb through with a fine tooth comb but im being selfish cause we met at orientation and your cool as hell so dont mind me, I support and respect your decision. alot of people would still try and fail and you DO NOT want that
