Broward College May 2016 RN program

Published

Just wanted to start a thread for Broward's May '16 RN program! I'm finishing up my application process this week.

My hesi was a 87% overall, with 90's in Math, Reading, and Vocabulary, an 84% in grammar, and a 80% in AP.

My prerequisite GPA is a 4.0

I want to volunteer at Memorial but they want a 6 month commitment and by then I'll have started the program, does anyone think this is a good idea? Or is it just too redundant as a nursing student. When do clinical rotations actually start in the program and will I have an opportunity at Memorial if I pick central campus?

Hopefully someone knows, thanks in advance!

I believe Central does clinicals at Memorial and Broward General. I think they also go to Cleveland Clinic. I'm not too sure about the last one though. I would hold off on making any commitments to Memorial you may not be able to keep. They can be a possible future employer in the end and if you don't see the commitment through they can consider that later on if you apply for an RN job. I'm not sure if they keep those kind of records but I wouldn't risk it.

Hey have you heard what class the bridge students start off with?

Nope. I wish I knew.

Good morning,

So all the speculating stops (and before incorrect information gets passed around), here is how it works:

*If you are being invited to join the RN program, your status will change to PRE-ADMISSION.

*If you are an alternate (in case students who are invited forfeit their seat), your status will become ALT.

After ALL the statuses have been changed, emails will be sent to everyone in that status explaining what the status means. DO NOT call or email to ask what your status means once you see it changed. Everyone's status is changed MANUALLY and it takes a while to get through everyone. Emails are sent out with 24 hours of the status change.

*If you are being invited, or are an alternate, you will receive an email to your BROWARD COLLEGE EMAIL ADDRESS ONLY telling you when and where the mandatory orientation is.

If you fail to respond to the email by the deadline date, you will FORFEIT your seat. NO EXCEPTIONS. If you fail to attend the mandatory orientation (and no prior arrangements have been made), you FORFEIT your seat. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Our goal is to have all decisions out before we go on spring break, so either this week or next. Please do not call or email to check on your status UNLESS you see something is wrong AFTER checking your MYBC account.

Good luck to everyone!
