Northeastern University Direct Entry Nursing (MS) - Online Option

U.S.A. Massachusetts

Published

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share their experience with the NEU direct entry online MS program. Do you feel that you were adequately prepared for the NCLEX exam with this program?

Also, what is considered to be competitive as far as admission statistics (GPA, healthcare experience etc).

Does anyone know if there is on campus housing options available for graduate students?

I would really appreciated feedback, thank you in advance!

I've never really been to residential areas in Burlington but I would say it is pretty safe! There's a pretty big mall and a lot of clinics/office suites and Lahey Clinic is right there as well. We'll probably have a clinical rotation at Lahey at some point so that would be really convenient for you =). I'm not sure about public transportation from Burlington to Boston so you may want to consider that if you don't plan on bringing a car here with you.

It's so nice to finally find someone else starting in May!

Ok thanks for the info! Ill look into the public transportation and everything, good idea. I can't believe the program starts in May, such short notice for me to move haha, but im looking forward to it. Have you received your acceptance packet in the mail yet? I feel like I dont know much about what this program entails yet and im hoping that will have more info.

That really is such short notice! Do you plan on moving right away? And I did receive the acceptance packet, it basically said that preparation day will be on April 18th, we'll be able to order our uniforms and supplies (stethoscope, bandage scissors, etc) and talk to some people in the program. It also had an accept/decline/defer slip and then something about orientation on May 6th (sorry I don't have the packet on me). For preparation day, we're supposed to have our healthcare provider CPR card and a record of completed immunizations. Also, the deposit is due March 20th I believe.

I hope this helps! Like I said, I don't have the information on me. Let me know if you have any other questions at all about the area, I'd be happy to help!

I also was accepted and will be attending in the fall. I was wondering if you have received your acceptance letters for fall yet. And Congrats!!!

Thank you!

My advisor said probably two weeks till I get the letter, are you in the fall cohort? I am taking the last of my pre reqs now, A&P 2 and nutrition...idk how I'm affording this prob a ton of loans...I just figure if I ever wanna pay off anything and make money I have to invest in this program to do it!

I'm excited and nervous! I'm hoping to start study groups and stuff maybe days where people in the fall cohort can get together and work on stuff together since its all online it would be nice and since there will only be 25 people it would be awesome to get to know everyone really well! And helpful!

Who else is in the fall cohort? We should strt a group or something!

I'm attending this fall and would be very interested in getting to know everyone!

what's everyone doing for tuition? what loans are you guys taking out?
