2. NYU Langone Nurse Residency

   ahreeol replied to hellosmile's topic in New York

   I was hired there recently and im not an NYU grad. I also know a friend who was hired there who wasn't an NYU grad. It is possible to get in there if you graduated somewhere else. The biggest thing that i think helped me was putting my GPA on my resu...

   ahreeol replied to jennifer1015's topic in HESI

   The website says they ship out the top 2 weeks prior to clinical but that's always pretty much a lie. If you order it right now you should receive it sometime in July (prob during the middle). The earlier you do it the earlier you'll receive it (desp...

   ahreeol replied to jennifer1015's topic in HESI

   StarvingRtist, If you're completely set on going the accelerated route then i would keep pressing the issue. They never get applications with 20+ students having a 4.0 GPA and a 92+ score on the hesi. Call their bluff and tell them you know people wh...

   ahreeol replied to jennifer1015's topic in HESI

   Giselle, You were probably wait listed. More than likely if they don't hear back from the people who got accepted in the "first wave," then they start going down the list and start accepting the people who were wait listed until all the seats are fil...

   Congrats on everyone getting in! If you guys need help picking up a good schedule for next semester just let me know! (Through PM). Many of these instructors lack online reviews so selecting a good one may be troublesome without knowing someone in t...

7. Lehman College Nursing Program 2015. Do I have a chance?

   ahreeol replied to MasonsMom2014's topic in General Students

   StarvingRtist, I completely get what you're trying to say but just know that there is a specific mindset you have to have for nursing that revolves around having good judgement even when you don't know the material. This will happen a lot once you ge...

   ahreeol replied to MasonsMom2014's topic in General Students

   StarvingRtist, When i said "I completely guessed" I actually meant i completely guessed, lol. I never even read the questions for most of them. And to some extent you're completely right in feeling misinformed. Those questions are a lot like the nurs...

   ahreeol replied to MasonsMom2014's topic in General Students

   Hey Destin293! :) nice to see you still active. Guys, the critical thinking part doesn't matter. I went headstrong knowing this last year and completely guessed on nearly all my answers. I got under 700. I still got in. All they care about is that y...

    ahreeol replied to jennifer1015's topic in HESI

    The physical and CPR cert need to be done sometime in august- if im not mistaking. So, you definitely have time for that. And yes, registration is done the same day you pick up your packet so try to look up the instructors/clinicals you may want for ...

    ahreeol replied to jennifer1015's topic in HESI

    Glowinthdark, Sadly, that's the disadvantage of being in the accelerated program. The coursework + clinicals is VERY time consuming. So, many people post grad find it really hard to get a job without a "foot" in- not just in lehman but in nearly eve...

    ahreeol replied to jennifer1015's topic in HESI

    Your information seems to be spot on. If you did the application accurately and handed it to them then you should be fine. It helps to make a copy of everything you have- just in case. A 4.0 gpa and a 92 on the hesi does basically guarantee you a spo...

13. Lehman's Fall 2014 Nursing Program

    I received my acceptance letter last year on June 19th. It may take a few more weeks to hear back from them.

    ahreeol replied to jennifer1015's topic in HESI

    Jen, The cutoff tends to usually be 3.5. In the event that they don't have enough seats filled they may pick those with a 3.4 science gpa (I know of only one person this happened to- she was admitted late). Glowinthdark, Its hard to say if this is ...

15. Lehman's Fall 2014 Nursing Program

    ahreeol replied to ahreeol's topic in New York

    Hey Jen! Sorry for the late reply. Finals week has kept me reallyyy busy. To answer your question, no. They tend to focus more on the science gpa than the overall one. A 3.6 cum gpa with a 3.7-3.8 science gpa is completely fine. Best of luck!
