University of Miami Accelerated BSN Summer 2015

[ambitious_shan]

Hello :)

I am kind of early with this thread, but I am pretty excited about the possibility of starting nursing school in May! Anybody else out there considering UM's ABSN program for summer 15? Also, anybody that has gotten in the program if you don't mind sharing helpful information, please do! I will still have 3 outstanding pre-reqs that I am registered to take in Spring. My cum GPA & pre-req GPA without those last 3 classes will be a 3.3 for both. I think I have a fair chance, could be better! (and will be once I finish pre-reqs) But anyway, share your thoughts about this program if you are considering as well! & good luck :)

I think you can set it up if you go to canelink.miami.edu if I remember correctly..... and if you are having trouble call the IT support. They are usually very helpful!

@Aggio Yes thats it, the communication center!

I paid my admissions deposit on canelink earlier, and my status changed from admitted to incomplete -_- did this happen to anyone else? I don't think it is that big of a deal though.

[risser]

@ambitious_shan yes same thing happened to me!

[ambitious_shan]

Oh okay, good to know it isn't just me lol thanks!

Does everyone have their living arrangements figured out? This is the stressful part for me because I live 6 hours away right now.

no! i've sent one email to the residence life department...i'm hoping to live on campus in the University area....? i'm not very familiar with anything...

[ambitious_shan]

Me too, I called today and the guy I spoke to wasn't sure if ABSN students qualify for housing? I hope so though, it would be less stressful!

[jf111088]

hmmm.. i thought it would because since it is a bachelors degree, we would be considered undergrads (therefore we would qualify for on-campus housing?)

[ambitious_shan]

My thoughts exactly. Hopefully that's the logic and we can get housing. Were you added to the fb page?

[jf111088]

Fingers crossed... And no I haven't been added. Were u?
