Florida Southwestern State College formerly Edison State College. I started thread for FSW but it is full with spring applicants. So I decided to start a new one for this upcoming fall.
Who is joining me next fall in nursing?
I plan to apply for Part-time or Lee full time. I have one more semester of pre-requisites. I am taking A&P 1, Micro, College Algebra and Nutrition. Kill me now. lol A full time semester of craziness but almost done after that hopefully with pre-requisites with the exemption of A&P 2 and a humanities class.
I plan to take the Hesi in mid Feb or march and retake if needed at the end of April. Schedule has been posted and I plan to study a lot this winter break. So excited but so nervous.
Last time, they started notifying right before Memorial Day for Charlotte and Lee nights. However, they have until mid June. Hopefully we hear within next week or so because the wait is killing me.

Hey! Dont be discouraged quite yet. You still have a pretty good chance. I spoke to the lady at collier when i turned in my application and she told me 65 and up is usually where it is. She even told me they accepted someone last semester that only had 55 points in total. So ultimately, it all falls on who are applying that term. Im in the same dilemma as you so positive thoughts!!!
Everyone here has high scores and thats awesome. But there's only a few here chatting. Gotta account for the number of seats and such. Dont sweat too much....yet lol. I wish you lots and lots of luck! Cause i definately feel you!! ;-)
I've also heard of people being accepted with less. It all just depends on the scores of the other applicants and how many are applying. My fingers are crossed for all of us. I have no idea if I have a chance of being accepted or not. I have no idea what range the scores should be for Transitions students. All I know is that there are only 12 seats available and it depends how many other transitions applicants are applying and what their points are. So, I'm in the dark. I don't know if I'll make it this time but I'm rooting for all of us. If we don't then we have more motivation to bust our butts to get ready to apply again for Spring 2016 application cycle Oct. 1, 2015. We can do this. It's this WAITING that gets to me. Not knowing if I'll be be accepted or not for 2-4 weeks is tough... You're not alone!
Lee is more competitive so if you dont get into Charlotte there's no hope. Lol
How long is the drive to Lee? Im in nw cape near burnt store road so I'm in the middle if both. Takes me 45 min to get to Lee and 35 min to get to Charlotte. Lee is less miles but more traffic.
Oh well at least I wont be alone if we both dont get in. However, no negativity because we ARE GETTING IN. I hope. Haha. Wishful thinking here.
The nursing advisor says that some semesters that accept all 90s at Charlotte, so it all depends! I live about 10 minutes from Charlotte and almost an hour away from Lee. I did choose the part time program as my second choice, and I didn't choose Lee day at all. If need be, I'll apply again in August. We got this :)
