University of Miami School of Nursing and Health Studies

"I cannot say why there aren't more positive reviews of the nursing school here at the University of Miami but let me be clear that this place will challenge you as most quality nursing programs do. As a graduate of both the ABSN program and the full-time Family NP program, I learned immensely and thoroughly. This is not to say that there aren't some organizational issues that you may face during your time. This is not to say that some professors do not read from their PPT but the content, study aids, and structure there will prepare you for any of the boards. The HESIs given in the program had me running scared but at the end of the day, if you learn the material (not just memorize) you will do just fine on them. I actually had my HESIs bump my grades rather than hurt them. You will need to be proactive with the material given but the professors are there to assist you in your goals and support as needed. This is NOT a cakewalk, there will be many times you ask yourself why you put yourself through the wringer but as you build a foundation and understanding, the confidence you gain in your clinical skills and judgement is well worth the price."

"I graduated from as a ARNP on 2018 from this school. I have no words to describe the professors and staff there : They are superb and outstanding people. I have no words to thank all of them : Dr.Ortega , Dr.Gonzalez , Dr. Briones ,Dr. Mesa , Dr. Zdanowicz , Dr.McCabe ,.my Clinical preceptors Dr. Jose A Gonzalez ,MD and Dr.Tara Sturstman. and the staff Gisela ,Nick and Marisa. Yes, the tests were very tough ,but the quality of the classes and the materials are excellent. If you want a good ARNP school choose this one if you really want to be a well-prepared Nurse practitioner."

"I was here for a tour last week. The facility is very nice and so is the staff. I really like the simulation hospital. I'm not applying to this program but I hope I get to use the equipment because it looks cool."

"DO NOT ATTEND NURSING SCHOOL HERE!!! The hoops you have to deal with for the price you pay will drive you insane. They are disorganized and the majority of the instructors literally read off their slides. The school uses what is called HESI and the instructors have never taken one! They teach to their own exams and think that prepares you for the standardized HESI tests. COME AT YOUR OWN RISK! There is reason why there are few reviews and the ones that are on here are complaints."

"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."
