UM FNP Part Time c/o 2019

Congrats! The class has to be finished by mid-December, I believe. There is enough time, but you will have to get started ASAP. There's a lot of little quizzes and assignments. Are you sure you are searching for the group with the same name I pos...

You can always call the school and ask to know for certain, but I'm sure there will be more acceptance emails coming. At the very least, there will be more spots available for those that decline their acceptance. Don't give up hope!

Congratulations to those that got in! It seems like the people who were accepted were interviewed last week so stay hopeful and calm if you are still waiting. There's still plenty of time! I also was accepted this morning. I received the email ...

I'm thinking the same thing. I definitely think that a strong academic background is important, but I think they would consider other relevant achievements as well. Have you submitted your application yet?

Hi everyone, Glad to see an active thread. I'll be submitting my application this week. My overall GPA is a 3.2 - a bit low to be competitive. I heard from someone that they usually interview those with 3.3 and higher, but I'll remain hopeful. I'...

Hi everyone. Congrats to those who have gotten an acceptance letter...to those who haven't: remember to keep up hope and keep on holding on! I remember the anxiety of waiting for acceptance letters...try to keep busy with work, friends, etc. I have...

I know some homestead students transferred to medical campus after failing a class in homestead and requesting a different professor. I'm sure they can switch you to homestead but it might take some effort.

I also want to inform you all of the grading scale.....93-100% is an A...anything less than a 77% is failing. I don't know of any other schools that use this grading scale. It's nice to know this ahead of time instead of the first day of class!

I loved the Homestead campus. I really really thought it was great. I'm not sure if they do it the same way, but they base on in your address. I believe anyone on SW 24 st or south of that will attend Homestead campus. It's much more tight-knit o...

Hi everyone. I just graduated from the program. Generic Full-time Homestead. You are in for a ride! Just giving some advice: it is possible to work while in the program. I worked between 20-30 hours throughout the program (except in the summer s...

Hi guys, I hope you get some news soon. Just letting you know you can do class searches at mdc.edu to see how many open spots are available. I know that everyone at Homestead campus has picked their classes, but there are still open seats for clas...

Hi guys, I declined my seat for PT generic (doing FT @ Homestead) so all your PT applicants have faith!!! Good luck guys. Whatever is going to happen will happen so try not to worry yourself sick while you wait!

We can chat on the FB page. I am in generic FT and I have a different orientation date. You can pull up the first day of school by looking at the classes on MDC's website (go there as if you are registering for classes). It is sometime in late Aug...

Congrats! Good thing you checked! Mine was forwarded to my email though. So much to do now!

FT generic homestead. See you there Marilyn! Score was 88. Congrats to all!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Got into FT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My overall is 88 also. Maybe they haven't sent out the FT yet. I'm freaking out!

I just got an acceptance letter to the PT generic option!!! I really want full time...I have to respond by the 21 of this month. Puts me in a tough position... Do I accept or keep waiting for FT?? Scary. Hopefully I hear something from FT! Good l...

@bsartor Congrats!!!!!!!!!! nothing yet here...what was your overall score? And you are doing FT generic, right?

Thanks! I am checking my MDC email once a day (at least!), but I've had it forwarded for years and it hasn't failed me yet! I definitely suggest to everyone doing the same thing to check MDC email as well. @Mary - I saw the stupid exercise class em...

@jocrespo I forwarded mine too! Every time I get a new email alert on my phone I frantically open it and see its just groupon or something -_-

Thanks jocrespo! I've been checking my email and this page like a madwoman all day!

Their program is actually a semester longer than ours (5 vs 4), but every semester is more intense for their program. For example, our first semester is 10 credits, theirs is 15, our second is 11 credits, theirs is 16, etc. I wouldn't even CONSIDER...

@adry - thanks for the info about 4 PM! I looked into FIU before I applied to MDC. They don't have an RN program, their program is strictly BSN or RN-to-BSN. I do plan on going there after MDC for their RN-to-BSN program. I already did my pre-req...
