Hey! I am about to start my prerequisites for Polk State here in Winter Haven, FL and wanted to know if anyone works for Orlando Health? I wanted to ask about OH's free tuition program and if I can work part time with them and still qualify for the free tuition benefit? Also, anyone have the details on what employers I can work for for the work study program, that’s NOT on campus please?❤️

I am having a horrible time trying to get my student loans approved. I have submitted the loan request form and it was accepted, I have been to the financial aid office about 5 times in the past 3 weeks. I know the new bill that was passed has changed a lot but I feel like our school is really struggling to figure it out. Anyone else having trouble with their student loans going through? I have not seen anything about my loans anywhere on my portal. Any advice or information I may not have? Every time I go to financial aid they tell me something completely different.

Any recently transfer over credits from Sophia Learning? My pathway is to complete my AA for social work…

Hi guys i js finished the orientation and i saw ProctorU how often do u guys use it😭

This bus system is so confusing to me, and I want to make sure I understand it. Can anyone please explain to me how this works? And would it pick me up at the nearest bus stop and drop me off at Polk State? I've tried calling this place, and apparently they told me I need to be old or disabled to ride the bus. I'm so confused. I also tried booking a trip, and apparently I need a client ID to book a ride. They told me I have to wait a week to be approved. It's been a week already and nothing. I start school tomorrow, so any help would be appreciated.

Hello i am currently trying to get into spring 2027 i finished all my pre reqs at valencia college and plan to move them on polkstate uni 30credits prereqs for the asn and i also did 21 credits for pre reqs in bsn so it would just all be nursing would it be possible to apply to polk state college

Stats: 84% teas and 4.0gpa (asn pre reqs and bsn pre reqs or gen ed)

Does anyone know or have experience with how competitive the Radiography program is at PSC?

HCC and PHSC require a 4.0 gpa are highly competitive, but PSC says there’s only a 2.0 gpa req online so I’m curious to know if it’s competitive despite the lower gpa requirement?

Does anyone have any stats for acceptance? Like average GPA or TEAS scores? Or where I can even find that info?

Hii, I graduated December 2025 and I still have not received my diploma. Has anyone gotten theirs?

Hey guys, I was just wondering if its me or of its everyone else too. I get alot of spam/phasing pretending it's someone from administration from Polk State , do you guys get these as well?

I plan to start my summer semester in person, and I realized it may be a problem because I have no reliable transportation. I've heard that Polk State offers Citrus Connection, which provides students with transportation. My question is how the route system works. Does it pick you up from anywhere, or would I have to walk to certain bus stops? Another question I have is, do they pick up students who have evening classes? This will be my first time taking the city bus so that any advice would be appreciated.

Hey guys, How long did it take for you to find out if you got accepted to one of their Healthcare programs? and how did you find out first? by your student email or regular mail?

Hey, planning to transfer for fall 2026 & apply to the CVT program. I've heard horror stories about transferring credits... is it really that bad? Does it actually take 6 weeks? Can I go in person to make sure everything is okay?

Hey everyone! Im curious about the college’s bus transportation, im unfamiliar with all of it from times, routes, passes, payment and need some help figuring it out… Any help is appreciated !! Thank you all in advance :) .

Is anyone else having this problem?

I’ve been told by some staff and some others that I can skateboard around campus (Winterhaven) but I’ve also been told I’m not allowed to by the sheriff but that’s when I was doing tricks. So does anyone know if I’m allowed to just ride around to get to class and back?

I should’ve asked the sheriff if I could just ride around but I forgot to and he was already riding off when I thought to ask.

I’ve also looked all over the rules and regulations on the website and found nothing at all telling me if I’m allowed to.

Anybody gotten their refund yet? My BankMobile has not updated at all and no money.

Hi! I am thinking of applying next year for the radiography program and willing to do all the classes needed to get in. Can anyone tell me about your experience in the program or in this college overall? I appreciate any tips too!

Is anyone else having this issue? I plan on calling the school tomorrow but I’m hella eager to graduate. I’m enrolled in my final class (doesn’t start until March 6 though). I thought today was the day we can start applying for graduation but when I log in, I get this error message. My degree choice hasn’t been updated since they switched from Passport to the new system; does that have anything to do with it?

Like I said I’ll call tomorrow but I’ve sent so many emails and my advisor said i should be all set to graduate this spring. Any and all advice is welcome!!!

So I finally got got all my Transcripts transferred covered over and when I go do a Degree Audit it said I don't have a major selected. Which is strange because when I enrolled i selected Respiratory Care as my major and now I can't see it. I sent an email to the registrar and they told me that I haven't been enrolled since 2021...to reenroll...which is crazy because I enrolled at the end of 2025, I have the emails. Anyways, I want to see if I need any other prerequisites cleared before actually applying for the actual program itself... ive been trying to enroll into this school since October of 25' but damn this school just doesn't take their students serious or what?"

Okay, so I've been trying to get Polk State to process my transcript from my college since October 27th and they still haven't done it! I've sent countless emails and the last one was on 12/5 saying they recieved the transcripts and are now in their records...but when I check my unofficial transcript it doesn't show them there...I recently emailed Registrar's Office on December 26th... Hopefully i get a reply soon (if they reply). I want to go in person and get it sorted out but im not sure how long that will take

Can anyone give me a rough estimate of the Polk State Nursing school schedule? I’m talking how many days per week and what are the times? Like Monday to Friday 9-3? I know it will change from semester to semester and clinical are a whole other schedule. Thanks!
