Broward College August 2012

Published

Hi! This is a thread for anyone applying for August 2012 class at Broward College for the generic nursing track. I deferred my seat so I will be starting in August. I haven't decided if I want to go to central or south yet.. I'm super excited about starting in August! If I could help anyone with anything feel free to ask! :)

Yes I am waiting too.My due date is Monday I wanted to start the reading assignments but guess I have to wait.

Yeah mine is Monday too. I called today and they said they are *hoping* loans will be through by Monday. We have 6 chapters to read at central!

Hi ladies,The time is near for you all to be officially a nursing student. Once you walk on campus with those blue scrubs on. Yeah for you guys......Anywho... My question is how much were your classes and books for this semester? Did your student loan or financial aid cover it all or did you need extra money? I'm trying to save money and I want an idea of how much the first semester cost. I also have to pay for child care as well.

Classes 1500.00/ all req. books,srubs and nursing kit 1500.00

North Campus bookstore...still out of some of our nursing books. They don't have any idea when they will re-stock.

South is out of the bundles. They don't know when they'll get some in either :/

It's frustrating how disorganized everything is. I hope everything works out on monday otherwise I may have to make other plans.

I agree, this is not fair to those who don't have their books. Dare I say so....it's almost like you aren't given a fair chance to succeed. I think this extra time is crucial. Since I've had my books I've kept my head in them. I hope they get it together asap!

by the way, I was told the person responsible for the problem is the VP of financial aid.

This is ridiculous I don't know what I'm going to do if it doesn't get processed by Monday. It's not right that they don't have all of this figured out

Are you reading from the 7th or 8th edition of fundamentals? I just got my hands on a 7th edition book but I want to make sure the chapters are the same since we already got assigned chapters to read

I have the eighth edition of the fundamentals and seventh edition of the skills book.

Hi, does anyone know if we are using any of the 3 med/surgical books from the books list this semester? just to see if it's a necessity. Thanks
