I just declined my spot. Therefore, someone should be getting that spot, I would assume. Good luck everyone, I wish you all the best!

To anyone previously in the program: I was doing some research and see that the school has an exit HESI exam. Is there a required pass rate for this exam? What happens if you don't meet the passing grade? Does the school prepare you for this exam, because I know some schools won't prepare you. In addition to the HESI are there other high stake exams that need to be passed?

To anyone previously in the program: I was doing some research and see that the school has ATI exams. Are these exams administered after every semester or before graduating? Does the school prepare you for these exams, because I know some schools won't prepare you. Does the school have any exit exams that are required to be passed before graduating?

So I also found out that University of Miami has an HESI exit exam. University of Massachusetts has ATI exams. Please advise.

University of Miami wants a deposit in the next 2 weeks- rather soon. University of Massachusetts is deposit is due in May. I tried reaching out to 3 people on social media and they haven't responded. Seems a little weird, i don't know.

Umm. Whats is the name of the forum?

So I called both programs, in which both seemed a little confused with my question. However, I think they knew what I meant. University of Miami stated they have a HESC C exam, not sure if I am writing this correctly. University of Massachusetts has a kaplan exam towards the end of the program, and ATI exam. Also, how important should NCLEX pass rates be? considering both schools are great schools.

I got into University of Massachusetts and the University of Miami accelerated nursing programs. They are both great programs. However, obviously I have to decide on one. I'm trying to weigh my pros and cons and am having a very hard time. Someone help. :-( University of Miami has great weather. Program offers great resources to its students. However, the program is 12 months. In one semester I believe there are like 3 clinicals and 3 courses. This program is more expensive than UMass. However, program does have this scholarship where if you work for them for 3 years they pay your whole tuition, even though I don't know whether that's a good or bad thing. Because, if you get the scholarship you have to follow and maintain a 3.0GPA as well. This program offers things like sending out students to other countries for research, which seems pretty cool. University of Massachusetts- Amherst has cold weather during the winter. The program is 17 months as opposed to 12 months. Seems like the curriculum has a better structure in their courses. Program is cheaper than University of Miami. Program also has a month off after the fall semester and University of Miami probably get like a week or 2 off, not sure on this considering it's 12 months. I would also assume that the clinical setting in University of Miami are probably better due to the reason that it's in a city, but I could be wrong.

This is really good feedback, and this was actually what I was looking to hear. I can see the curriculum online but was wondering what the exact breakdown was. Are the clinicals in hospital settings? Can you choose where you want to do them or are you placed based on grades etc.?

I have looked at the curriculum of the courses already. However, I am not sure what the exact set up is, for example: what is civic? On semester 1 will there be two clinical and two courses, since there are credits on that column under clinical credits. Then on semester two: 3 clinicals and 3 courses. I am trying to figure out the break down of a semester for those previously in the program. Also, has anyone heard anything about the scholarship where if they offer it to you, you have to agree to work for them for 3 years? Does anyone happen to have more information on this?

For anyone previously in or having finished the program: Can I please get a break down of classes per semester? How long is this program? Are the classes set up in a manageable manner? I am asking because I want to know if I will be able to manage. Please advise, because I am trying to weigh my options in terms of affordability and being able to manage being in a full time program. Also, if applying for FAFSA, will that cover the whole tuition in loans?

Does this mean that the classes are set up in a good structure? considering other programs are 12 months.

How many classes are there in a semester? Also, ideally how much money should be saved up in terms of moving over there? I would be living off of school loans so I was just wondering. And how long after you start or before do you get your redone check-- in terms of being able to pay your rent.

How many classes a semester do you get? Also, I would be living off of loans-- therefore, how long before they give you your refund check?
