Good luck! ? I’ve noticed that most people found out within a month or so from date of submission, but this can vary if there are items missing/pending.

Hi Guys!!

I'm thinking of applying in 2022 but I was wondering if anyone had to retake any of the prerequisites. 

Do they take the highest grade? Or do they average it out?

Hi Noelle,

When you're inputting your grades into NursingCAS, you input which ones you want. I believe Miami only lets you retake one prerequisite, so whatever is higher will be accepted.

In terms of GPA, they take every grade and incorporate it into your GPA. Meaning they take both the class you originally took and the retaken course. "NursingCas does their own GPA calculation since they do not apply grade forgiveness policies that universities may use. They take ALL courses (including repeats and course failures) into account and use that average, so your transcript GPA may look different than the NursingCas GPA. " Hope this answers your question!

Hi all!

I am also applying for the next cycle and was trying to do my application on Nursing CAS and had a question. For the transcript entry portion, did you guys only have to list the pre-requisite grades, or did you have to list EVERY single grade from all the courses you've taken in your first undergrad?? I'm sort of confused because in the beginning it says to put every single course grade but then when I scroll to the bottom on the portion that UM asks for it says just to enter the pre-req grades??

Hi ! For transcript entry, you must include ALL college courses that you have taken. Once you finish entering all your courses, there will be section where you can choose the courses that will count as your pre-req courses. Also, you can pay NursingCas to enter your grades for you. I personally didn't do it, but its an option that is available to you.
