Hey Everyone!

I made this forum for people that are applying to Santa Fe College ASN Program.

It would be nice if we can all share our experience and share our some of our informations during the process!!

Hi Sicilib,

I am currently in the program and should graduate in May as long as everything goes smoothly. It is a good program, but as with everything, there is always room for improvement and they make changes each semester based on the previous one.

It is extremely fast paced with 6 week "mini-mesters" for courses and it's a lot to lear for each 6 weeks. The first semester is fairly easy (Fundamentals), but you can't let that boost your confidence. I have always been an A/B student and now I aim for a low B and I'm happy to pass. Most students have very little free time/life outside of school and studying for the 15 months of the program. This could be some people's definition of a nightmare, but I'm not sure what made Broward a nightmare to you. However, like I said, things change each semester because there is always room for improvement.

Overall, I believe that they are doing a fairly good job preparing us to be nurses, but it does require a lot of work and dedication. Many people have failed and have to wait to restart where they left off with the cohort behind their original. You may fail and come back up to 3 times and I know people who will not be allowed back if they fail MS 2 because it will be their third fail during the course of the program and MS 2 is only 5 courses in to the approximately 9 course program. So, it's tough and people do fail. Passing is 77% and above.

Please let us know if you have any specific questions.
