Albany, NY Area Applicants

Published

Hi, I live in the Albany, NY area and have applied to Ellis School of Nursing and Adirondack Community College. Is there anyone else out there in my area who is anxiously waiting as well? I can't believe we have to wait unti April, it seems like a lifetime away. I just thought maybe I'd ask and see if there's anyone else out there with me :)

I applied to Ellis as well! I'm going nuts waiting for decisions to be sent

So how'd it go?

I'm happy with my interview... How about you? The interviewer was very nice, made it a lot easier. Now the real nerve wracking wait begins! :)

I think mine went pretty well. She said that I have a pretty good chance, we'll just see if I survive the final selection. She said since I'm not taking any classes @ ACC right now I'll probably hear in a couple weeks. Keeping my fingers crossed. The thing I think they may be concerned about is the long commute I would have. We will see I guess.

Day or evening program? Do you have a degree already? I applied for the day program I have a BS in counseling, at first I thought that would give me an advantage but from what I hear it's pretty common for people to apply there who are just like me. Did you ever look into Samaritan or Memorial? I really like those schools but I didn't want to take that TEAS test- ugh! Good luck- my sister started there this past fall she's in the evening/wkend program and she really likes it. She's been able to go to 2 surgeries in her med/surg clinicals so far!

Fantastic! Well I hope you get into Ellis, since its more convenient for you, but this sounds like it might be a great plan B.
