1. SUNY Brockport Accelerated program Summer 2015

   FredWurlitzer replied to jseg04's topic in New York

   So far, clinicals have been a positive experience and all of my clinical instructors have been wonderful. I'm not really sure on the exact total hours of clinical but I do know that each clinical has been a once-a-week deal. Med/Surg 1 - A long-term...

   FredWurlitzer replied to jseg04's topic in New York

   There are 30-35 of us in this cohort, 33 I think? I can't remember the exact number. One person was removed from the program in the first week of classes due to a personal issue. Other than that, everyone is still here! I would have to say each semes...

   FredWurlitzer replied to jseg04's topic in New York

   I commute from Rochester, so I'm not really the best person to ask as far as housing in Brockport is concerned. Your best bet would probably be either google or craigslist. I know of a few apt. complexes in the area, but there are also many houses ...

5. SUNY Brockport Accelerated program Summer 2015

   FredWurlitzer replied to jseg04's topic in New York

   I'm currently on the final leg of the program for the class of 2015 and it's looking like it's going to be a sprint to the finish. The program is a little challenging (what nursing program isn't?), but definitely manageable. Thus far, it seems like...

   jseg04, Have you heard back from Brockport at all? I'm currently in the class of 2015 cohort.

   Unfortunately, it seems as if the NY section of allnurses is mainly filled with student's/nurses inquiring about programs/jobs in the downstate/NYC area. It'd be nice to see more awareness about upstate/CNY/WNY programs..

8. SUNY Brockport 2014 Accelerated Program

   FredWurlitzer replied to FredWurlitzer's topic in New York

   I live in Rochester, so it'll be about a half hour drive to school. My first bachelors was from Brockport so I am pretty familiar with the campus. There is a very helpful campus map on the website if you're not sure where to go.

10. Nursing School and Fatherhood

    FredWurlitzer replied to FredWurlitzer's topic in Pre-Nursing

    txerrn6942, that's exactly what I was thinking, doing to the "daddy duties" and letting her sleep while I study in between everything. CDEWannaBe, I'm pretty much going into this with that mentality, I'll do whatever I need to do in order succeed, as...

11. Are you going to work while in nursing school?

    FredWurlitzer replied to vettechtoRN's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm currently work 2 jobs (35 hrs at one and 8 hrs at the other) and am starting an accelerated BSN program in May. My girlfriend and I are expecting our first child in June, and as much as I hate not working, I've decided I'm not going to work for a...

12. Nursing School and Fatherhood

    FredWurlitzer replied to FredWurlitzer's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Thank you for your responses! I do know that I'm going to have to be super frugal with my finances and I will have to support myself with supplemental loans. My main concern is the workload. Although I know it is going to be hard work, I'm getting ve...

13. Nursing School and Fatherhood

    FredWurlitzer posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I was recently accepted into a nursing program that happens to be "accelerated" which starts in May 2014 and goes until August 2015. My girlfriend and I are expecting our first child in June 2014. We were not trying to conceive when we found out ...

14. Brockport BSN students?!

    FredWurlitzer replied to RosaleiMae's topic in New York

    Depending on where you got your first bachelors will determine what kind of application you fill out. I received my first from Brockport so I only had to fill out the "readmit" application. I graduated from Brockport with a degree in Ex. Phys. with a...

15. Brockport BSN students?!

    FredWurlitzer replied to RosaleiMae's topic in New York

    I got my acceptance letter in the mail yesterday and I'm very excited as well! I also live in Rochester and plan on commuting. Like everyone else asking, if anyone can comment on the program it'd be greatly appreciated. From what I understand, last y...
