Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW) - Fall 2022

[Nursing_journey]

Hey y’all!! I’m taking prerequisites and I’m hoping to apply by May 2022 Lord willing. I noticed that the previous program started a post and figured why not get one started for the next class. I’ll update this post when I apply and if/when I get accepted.

Hi I'm not sure how to use this site yet. But I would prefer daytime Lee or daytime Charlotte or Collier. I prefer Lee but I don't mind going to the Charlotte Campus if necessary. I think my GPA was a 3.79 to almost a 3.8, it's hard to calculate and know for sure even using the score sheet. What does anew vs traditional mean?
?

Hiii! Congrats on getting past phase 1! I chose Lee traditional as my first choice with Collier and Charlotte traditional as choice 2/3. Awesome GPA btw, mine was a 3.80 as well.

Hi everyone, I got considered for the program and scheduled my interview for the 6th at 1:30 and I chose to do my testing at Collier Campus on the 7th at 2pm. Surely, it doesn't matter where we complete the testing? I attend Lee campus and hoping to enter the program here, so does it matter that I do my testing at Collier? I did email the program advisor and she said "you choose the times and locations based on what's available when you sign up", but I just wanted to make sure. I'm kind of nervous for the math test, but luckily it must be easy because it's only on paper and they only allow 30 minutes for 20 questions. So they must think it's more than possible to complete in that time limit. I'm so excited and nervous. The email said every student will be asked the same 4 questions as well in the interview, so who knows if that means the same 4 for everyone or if they choose 4 questions from a big list for each interview?? We can do this yall, the hard part was getting considered! I'm so excited to meet you all ?

I scheduled my exam for the 6th at noon on Lee campus and my interview on the 7th at 11:30. I’m more nervous for the interview than the test. I’ve been using khan academy to refresh in basic math skills so I feel a little confident but group interviews aren’t my favorite ?

I feel like they might change up the questions slightly so that it’s fair to everyone interviewing but that’s just my assumption.

Also, I think the courses taken in the Spring do count towards the GPA calc because the final grades are usually posted before the deadline closes. But I’m not 100% positive.

Yes Spring is calculated I was only missing Nutrition and finished it in Spring after I applied in March.

Hey! I did, on Friday of last week actually. I’m going to attach a screen shot. Hopefully it won’t get removed I did remove all the identifiers.

Hmmmm, that’s weird. Maybe you guys will receive one sometime this week? If you don’t by Thursday then I would email (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME)!

Okay I will just wait a couple days and see.

For anyone taking the test in the next couple of days please let us know how word problem heavy the test is. I feel like word problems are my weakest point in math so it would be nice to know ?
