  1. I found my apartment in the UR/Strong area...that's the closest. I'm a 15 minute walk to the school. It depends on if you would prefer to walk to school (I prefer this...I've only been driving when I am going to be at school late). Some people liv...
  2. Oh, and here is my 15th post...so hopefully anyone who is interested in my friends' apartment can PM me!:)
  3. Hi! I'm loving the program so far, despite being pretty busy (I am looking forward to Spring break!). The clinicals are set up for us. We have not started clinicals yet...we begin after Spring break. I think for your class the first 6 or seven wee...
  4. Congrats to everyone who has gotten in to the program for May! I'm in the class that just started in January. I haven't had much time to read anything on this page in a while, but if anyone has any questions, I would be happy to answer what I can. ...
  5. Hi! I have a question for anyone who is already in the accelerated program. I am starting in January and am waiting to find out the specifics of my financial aid/federal loans, but the financial aid counselor said that I can start the loan applicati...
  6. I got in too, but I am applying for graduate housing. I decided that this may be the only time I can "afford" a one bedroom apartment all to myself :). I received a packet in the mail. From what I gathered, they're doing acceptances in two (or thr...
  7. I don't think I can wait that long! I must have been one of the first people interviewed (early July) and the suspense is driving me crazy:bugeyes: Oh well....good luck to everyone else waiting too! Hopefully we'll all be hearing sooner than later a...
  8. I had my phone interview last week. There wasn't much to it, about 20 minutes. I was asked what I've been doing and how I came to want to be a nurse. That was really the only question, and we started talking from there. I did have some questions pr...
  9. Hi Everyone! I actually have a phone interview for U of R tomorrow. Any last minute advice from any students/former students? Just wondering what to expect, and forgot to check this board until today! I'm definitely excited about the interview......
  10. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    That happened to me a couple weeks ago....I received two generic letters with information from financial aid that congratulated me on getting in. Sure enough, that Friday I got my official letter in the mail. Congratulations!!
  11. Sanyo729 - That sounds like you have a good shot of getting in. I met with the Admissions Director a couple months ago and I have similar stats (minus the LPN) and she sounded positive. She also said that the interview is definitely key, but if you'...
  12. Please help- NYU or University of Rochester!!

    This is exactly what I was looking for too! I am waiting to hear from NYU and am working on my U of R application (for January start). I have family in Rochester and the cost of living is much lower, but NYU does have more scholarships and a wider v...
  13. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    I just applied to NYU as well, but sent my application in Mid-March, so don't expect to hear quite soon. ucdavistudent - When I visited a couple weeks ago, the person in the Nursing office (I think an admin. asst.?) gave me some information about...
  14. University of Rochester

    I'm applying to accelerated BSN programs as well...for either this fall (NYU if I get in) or January (UofR, Georgetown, NYU, or UM Baltimore). I've been doing a ton of research and finishing all my prereqs, so I feel like I'm eating, sleeping, and b...
  15. University of Rochester

    I don't know about a U of R website, but craigslist is a great tool. I've been visiting the Rochester area yearly or more often since I was born. I can't say much about downtown Rochester, but Chili is a great suburb (my mom grew up there and my ex...
