University of Miami Accelerated BSN spring 2015

Published

Hello everyone, I just wanted to start this thread for anyone interesting or planning on applying to UM for spring 2015. I am finishing up the pre-requisites I need...doing micro class and lab. So far those are the only things I know I have to take. I'm extremely nervous, mainly because of the waiting game to see if I'm accepted or not.

I had to take over class, so I am not too happy about that either, so that also makes me a little down.

Also when I called the other day, someone said they are changing the application process, did anyone else hear that information?

Are you guys finish with all your pre-requisites?

Do you know how much repeating a class puts you in the hole for not getting accepted?

I'm wondering the same thing. I have a statistic course from my degree and I also have a level 2 math college course. On the FAQs the also have in brackets that applicants must have a pre-req of at least a college algebra... see below. I am not sure if I need one or the other or both...

  • Chemistry for Life Sciences w/ Lab (CHM 103/105)
    (Chemistry for premed or chemistry majors meets this requirement)
  • Human Anatomy w/ Lab (HCS 212/213)
  • Principles of Systemic Physiology (HCS 215)
    (Human Anatomy and Physiology I and II meet this requirement)
  • Introduction to Microbiology and Immunology for Nurses (MIC 320)
  • Introduction to Psychology (PSY 110)
  • Introductory Statistics (NUR 202)
    (Must have a prerequisite of at least college algebra)
  • Principles of Nutrition (NUR 306)
  • Theories in Growth and Development (NUR 317)
    (must cover the lifespan from birth to death)

Hey! Hopefully someone will answer, if not it's okay I will be calling on Monday bright & early! Haha. As far as the pre req of college algebra, I think that pertains to the statistics class, not the nursing program. Some schools require that you take college algebra before taking stats.
