Truthfully, I think your best bet is to go there in person. As many people have said before, things don't really work over the phone, but when there in person, everyone I encountered was overly friendly and helpful.

I was under the impression that after pediatrics we could take the NCLEX as if it were for an ADN, and as far as I understood ADN+NCLEX=RN and BSN+NCLEX=RN. If I'm mistaken It doesn't change much. I just would rather get the NCLEX out of the way ASA...

I'm looking to arrive the first week in July, so I will be missing orientation. I talked with one of the directors (name started with Y) from the nursing program, and she told me she would sit down with me and tell me what I missed and help me regist...

Good luck. My undergraduate GPA is 3.17 (I swear I thought it was higher) and they let me in just fine. Do you know when and how we register for classes that begin in August? Is it online?

So I received my letter of admission in the mail... its mentions that there is a "counseling and registration activity for transfer student that will be held on Saurday, May 22 at 8am". I tried calling the number it gives if one cannot attend, with n...

Just curious, has anyone received their acceptance letter yet? I'll be down there in July. Maybe studio, maybe room ate, but I need to live near the beach... :)

Ok cool. Did you do this? Oh and lastly how much total did the program cost (not including books)? Thanks again. You have saved all of us hours of time and stress. :)

Thanks PR Nurse! When I visited the school the nursing coordinator told me that since I spoke Spanish that I could be certified to work as a nurse in PR after my first year since I would technically have an ADN. Is this true? Do any of the students d...

I don't want to live in Condado/Ocean Park for the parties but instead to live close to the beach. Oh and I have found studios around there in the 500 range and everything is negotiable too...

I will be starting the 2yr bsn in August. I will move there in July to get set up with car and housing. I'm dead set on living in Ocean Park or nearby. There are studios, but the best bet is sharing a 2br. You can get very nice places close to the be...

Just got home last night. Visited the school and talked to a few people that went through the program. Everyone I dealt with at the school was very helpful. I spoke with the Nursing director, the head of the English Trimester Program, and the head of...

You are planning on going to UPR instead of Inter? Or was that a typo? If so, are they on the trimester plan? Also, any word on how long it would take to graduate with a bsn from UPR if you have a degree already? I'm going to check it out.

I just applied online from this page: http://admisiones.inter.edu/ Then I chose option 5 (transfer student). I'm not sure if this is the correct option, but by process of elimination I figured it to be the best. It was a while ago, but I do remember ...

I think it was about a month after doing the online app that I received the letter asking for my ss card and transcripts. I shortly after sent out a copy of my ss card and requested my transcripts be sent from the university where I graduated from. J...

I'm looking into taking a trip out to San Juan for some recon. I'd be there in the beginning of April, so if I can help anyone else out I'll try. Let you know closer to that date.
mike.choley replied to zzzzzgirl's topic in US Territories
I have already applied and the responded by asking for my transcripts and a copy of my ss card. I think when I applied I chose option 05. My reasoning for this was that although I have already graduated from the University I have attended, it is what...
