It is sad to find out that employees talk bad about student that are persistent in reaching their goals by asking questions. My daughter was informed by a former student that she was not excepted because she was to persistent and staff did not care for it. it was not that their was not enough seats available. As a mother and employee it is sad that thinks like this happen to what people call the numbe r5 university in the state of florida, thank you God for helping her enter Nova University they like persistent students.
I decided to reach out to the Provost office and bring up my concern. I am then informed they would reach out to the SON and address this concern. Sure enough after brining up the fact that I was denied admission because of my pending course, I have Mr. Kilpatrick that now says the reason I was denied was because my prerequisite GPA was just below the minimum. This raised more concern because again I do not understand how I get accepted into Johns Hopkins which has a higher minimum GPA and not UM. Upon viewing Mr. Kilpatrick email I see that they incorporated courses into my GPA that did not need to be taken into account, and of course those courses caused a discrepancy in my GPA. I bring forth that they made a mistake in their calculation and then I get a response from Ms. Cindy Munro stating "We have a standardized process for calculating GPAs that is applied consistently to every application; your GPA was calculated using the same process that was used for every other application. I will also reiterate Assistant Dean Kilpatrick’s statement that we use a holistic application review with multiple data points- GPA is only one element of the application." Again I try to explain to her that they incorporated courses that didn't need to be accounted for in my GPA and send the proof that shows discrepancy and from that point forward I have gotten ignored.
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND IF YOU ARE READING THIS REFRAIN FROM APPLYING TO UM. THE STAFF AT THE SON IS INCOMPETENT, AND DO NOT HAVE ANY FORM OF CUSTOMER SERVICE. I GUESS THE FIRST COMMENT MADE ON THIS REVIEW ABOUT PERSISTENCY STAYS TRUE. SON AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI IS BY FAR THE WORST SCHOOL ANYONE CAN APPLY TO! SAVE YOURSELF THE TROUBLE IF YOU CAN.
If I could give the University of Miami zero stars I would. I graduated from the accelerated program in December 2015 and everything about the school of nursing is a disaster. The counselors have absolutely no clue what is going on, most of the professors are terrible, and you will learn absolutely nothing. The biggest mistake I ever made was going to this overpriced nursing program. If you have other options, I would strongly consider going elsewhere...Stay far far far away from this program.
I ran out of space in my previous review so I am continuing here.
