Broward college Nursing Jan 2015

Published

Hello, this is a thread for any current nursing students at Broward college or those who have recently been accepted. I'm a bit confused on Broward's admission criteria. What classes exactly do they use to calculate the gpa?

Congratulations to everyone who got accepted!! I have completed all of the HSC Cert hours on CEUFast.com, it was super easy and quick...and only cost $30 :up: I am currently working on the new Laws of Nursing through BC, it has a lot more reading to it, but you can take the test as many times as needed to score the 70% passing rate so it's simple enough. Now that we've been accepted I'm trying to really get everything done as soon as possible. Does anyone know if we can do the online background check now? Or do we have to wait until after the admissions meeting? I have the forms printed from Health Science admissions with the package code, just want to be sure this is the correct code for all incoming nursing students.

The course names are slightly different, as are the hours. They are:

AIDS/HIV 4hr - there is an option for 2hr, be sure to select the 4hr

Domestic Violence 2hr

If you haven't gone to the pre admission meeting then wait. There's a lot of info they relay there and if you do anything without guidance and you create errors, they WILL drop you. Sadly. Even registering has a process, you can't register like the prerequisites. We had a student dropped because they signed up willy nilly and I wasn't able to register. They found out why and she was dropped.

No I'm sorry; you would have to take the HESI before and turn it in with your application.

That's not true. I submitted my application before I took the hesi; she just has to take the test as soon as possible after submitting her application.

I'm signed up to take the test in 2 weeks do you think that's a good enough time? I'm going to Central tomorrow

I think you will be fine. I remember people were still being accepted even after we went to the pre-admission orientation for the August term (I deferred my seat). So turn in your application tomorrow and just take your Hesi when you can. It's open ended until all seats are filled and you never know some people may defer their seats. Good luck :)
