FIU RN-BSN changes!

U.S.A. Florida

Published

i'm posting this as an fyi for everyone.

i was very happy with fiu's program because of the convenience, and the fact that you don't have to take tons of classes to complete the bsn and that you get a lot of credits for those ec exams and it brings down your total price.

but i just found out that they took the first class out of the program, and they added a new class this fall term that you have to take in order to graduate:uhoh3:

so definitely, if you are interested in the school- go to the advisor at the nursing school.

also- for clinicals-- the last semester-- you have to do so much-- background check, drug screening, pay for official transcripts from ec,

and in my case, take 18 credits.

i wish i hadn't gotten lazy and graduated in may like i had planned to. now i am paying for that by taking an extra course!:crying2:

Thanks for all the tips! Yes, my friend I have to go to the school. I did that on my associates and it was very intimidating. My professor is Tatayana Bogoplskyi she was your teacher too? I will ask her to be in the last group of presentation by November. have to be out of state for 2 months hope she will understand...

Anyway once again thanks,

If I have more questions I will bother you again;)

The current curriculum has changed. Some classes have been changed and some classes have been combined, so I do not know the current curriculum credits for the entire program.

I am on my last semester-- and I was going by the OLD curriculum-- I thought I had 12 credits left to graduate, but now I have 18 credits left due to the reason that I am adding one class that was NOT on my OLD curriculum, but this new class was added to the NEW curriculum.

the program is set up just like it is now on fiu.edu, but with different course tittles and numbers. To get the details you MUST go to FIU nursing campus because it is not posted on the FIU website.'

I hope to be done this semester and they do not add anymore classes!

Hello Labrador,

I just graduated in Aug 2010, and I passed my NCLEX.

I was admitted to FIU already and the advisors said I am admitted into the program for Jan 2011. My question to you is. Which classes could I take together you think? I would like to take 4 or 5 in January. So which classes do you think I could take together and it not be too crazy. I am a Broward College Nursing Program Grad.

Classes are as follows:

Professional Nursing Concept and Issues NUR 3119

Health Assessment and Promotion NUR 3066C

Evidence Based Nursing and Research NUR 3666 (advisor said it was hard, I wanted to take this 1st semester)

Nursing Leadership in Global health Care NUR 3668

Nursing Global Health Systems NUR 4667

Thank You I appreciate your help!!!

Hi Labrador4122. I know these post are probably old but I wanted to ask you some questions about FIUs program and was wondering if I can email you or vise versa? Since I'm rarely new I'm unable to send PMs. Thanks so much
