Am transferring from my nursing school in new york to Jefferson college of health sciences and am very nervous. Am not sure how their program is and the professors willingness to help student. I also want to know if their have a test average at the end of each semester to move on to the next stage. Any advice or help will be very appreciated.

You've already arranged the transfer and you didn't ask them before you started the transfer process?
Or you are looking at several programs and want to know how this one works, and you didn't ask them because ... ?
Please forgive me, but I'm not sure of where you're coming from, and that might make a difference to the people here who might know. Can you clarify what your concerns are, too?
I have already arrange the transfer and have spoken to them about the program and my concerns but am not sure if is true or not so I was looking to talk to a student or someone that had attended the school before about their experience.schools admission. Personals will always says good things about their schools which are not always true.

Hi there. I am starting there this fall also. I am a transfer from VWCC. I believe how it works is at the end of let's say this fall semester you must have a 3.0 to be guaranteed to move to your nursing classes. 2.5 to 3.0 will be put on a wait list. Anything lower cannot move forward. Hope that helps and good luck!
Thanks for the comment, do you know anything about the KAT test you have to take before upper level classes

Yes true. Its on a 7 point grade scale. Most all nursing schools are like that. Don't worry too much about that 'moving on thing.' They just are highly reputable and I think they want the students on their toes.
