   @jujubee - thanks again for your honesty. Your recent post was chock full of great information. I too wonder if this is a common experience...and if nursing is a profession better caught than taught? Another recent thread on the disconnect between ...

   @EveB - It came in the same packet. The sheet I'm talking about was generated by Decker, not Admissions, so you probably want to check with them first. Wecome, welcome! We're excited too!

   EveryDayAGift replied to coffee and toast's topic in New York

   @EveB - Congrats on your acceptance! I just checked my packet. My actual acceptance letter doesn't say anything about the BAT nor does it state Fall 2011. There is a secondary sheet from Decker that states both BAT and Summer 2011. I hope that ...

   EveryDayAGift replied to rngreenhorn's topic in General Students

   Wow... What a depressing thread. As someone approaching nursing school, I hate to think that this is just a $20000+ hurdle. I'm convinced that in higher ed, most degrees are what you make them. Those of you who have posted - do you have any advice...

   @jujubee1 - Thanks for sharing your experience - certainly different from the school's recruiting info. :) It makes sense to me that a BSN program is more theoretical than applied - this is a criticism applied nearly across the board when discussi...

   @spiritedkidd - I wish you the best on your journey into the BAT! I would agree with Mahanabay that overall strength of application is important from what Binghamton told us. You'll need two letters...one academic and one either professional or per...

    Hi Mahanabay - Congrats on getting in! I'm looking forward to connecting with you in May. You're right - it's not far away. With that said, I'm ready for the transition. Currently I live a few hours away - I'll be moving into the Binghamton area in...

    Hi Hong - I had the initial components of my application in by mid-September and the last few pieces were sent in by early October. I wish you the best and hope you get in!

    EveryDayAGift replied to coffee and toast's topic in New York

    Hi All - I got my acceptance letter last week as well! I'm pretty excited. Hong, I just checked my BUBrain site - even though I've been accepted, my status still reads 'not entered' as well. So I guess ignore that...

13. Suny Binghamton Accelerated BSN Summer 2011

    EveryDayAGift replied to cas89's topic in New York

    No prob! Based on your response, I don't want to totally dissuade you from Drexel. I'm pretty sure that the hospitals in Philly are higher profile than Binghamton, so if you're really looking to climb the career ladder it might be the best pick of th...

    Hey All! Another 2011 SUNY Binghamton BAT applicant here as well. From everything I've read, it appears that they'll be making decisions from now until February, with the majority of invitations sent out in Jan/Feb. If you read the older threads on...

15. Suny Binghamton Accelerated BSN Summer 2011

    EveryDayAGift replied to cas89's topic in New York

    Hey cas89 - I considered all three programs and in the end Binghamton is the most appealing to me. My reasons... I've lived in both Philly and NY. I've spent time near the Drexel campus and you couldn't pay me enough money to live there or anywher...
