Broward College May 2017

Published

Anyone Applying to the May 2017 program? I wanted to get into the January program but I was missing a math class and couldn't complete it in time for the January program.

I have another concern. I have a excessive amount of credits in my degree audit, I was majoring in Ultrasound, then I switched to nursing and finished my AA and paid everything out of pocket. I don't know how BC works, but at MDC they disqualify you for that reason. I guess and asking too many questions, I better stay quiet LOL

I think I have a 3.2? I forgot how to calculate. My grades aren't magnificent, I have an A in A&P2 lect and lab, B for A&P1 Lec and lab, and a C in English.

Also, this is a little bit of a personal post. I am so not on top of student loans..etc.. but I know I'm not able to work while I'm in the program IF I get accepted... does anyone have any tips about loans? I called about an unsubsidized loan, and the form that is found on the BC website under fin aid says that "students admitted to a Health Sciences program which requires clinicals" that are independent can only take up to $4000. This is not enough to cover my classes and help with bills. Can anyone help?

You can contact me at [email protected] or text/call at 9548503351.

Thank you!!!

We do not look at excess credits. Keep in mind though that you have to have and maintain an overall GPA of a 2.0 in order to start, and stay in the RN program.

Your GPA for the program will be 3.09! That should give you 6

Welp this week has come to an end. Application Period is closed. Based on what I read last May 2016 found out March 4th. Hoping the same for us. If so we have about 14 days Until we (POSSIBLY) get our acceptance letters. Good Luck Everyone!

Big issue if you go to Miami Dade College, they automatically disqualify you. I appealed like three times and got denied, so I ended up paying my entire AA in Pre-Nursing out of pocket. I'm also need to know more about loans, since I wont be working either.

You will want to talk to Financial Aid regarding loans. They will let you know what is available to you.

I wont be working either. I was just looking on BC website under the Financial aid tab. As for loans I know we can try to request $4,000 once we get our letters. It says someone who is admitted into the health science program with clinicals can request $4,000. of course you could request a regular loan I think they give about $2250 per semester at least that's what they gave me in the past. If I get accepted I'm also trying to apply for the broward workforce grant which is $8200. I think I'm going to go to meet Financial Aid next week for them to tell me what I can qualify for. Don't forget to fill out the application for BC scholorship on there website. App closes 4/2017. hope that helps.

Hey everyone,

I've been doing my CPR through 'Awareness Through Education' in Margate, off Atlantic Blvd & Rock Island. I've also done CEU's through her for work. She gives a discount for CEU bundles. The woman who owns this company, Doreen, is an RN and I think she's great. I met her through my mom who is in the Nursing field.
