College of New Rochelle ABSN Fall 2019

Published

Hello!

Just wanted to make a thread to see if anyone applied and/or got accepted into this program for Fall 2019. I have not seen a post for this cohort yet so I decided to make one for us aspiring nursing students.

Hey! I haven’t, I called three times last week and went to voicemail each time. The summer cohort has started I know that.

Finally got a real answer from someone at Mercy. They are currently review applications and hoping to be completed by July 15.

Hey sorry! Delayed response! Have you heard anything yet? I see that they put it up on the website but also has genetics as a pre req?

I met with a counselor last week and he said by the end of July. Unfortunately I don’t think I’ll get in because I thought they only focused on the prerequisites and not the Bachelors gpa which combined only puts me at 2.9 and you need a 3.0 ugh.

I just went on the Mercy website. Genetics are you serious?! They better not count that towards the cnr students. That’s just not fair but I want that damn interview!

Right ? So weird they added that. Well— I feel like there aren’t that many applicants and 2.9 is not far off. They probably look at the whole applicant.

Yea I hope so. Also I think they’ll take chemistry over genetics. If you look at their curriculum is shows that on top.

Awesome! I may be looking to reapply in the fall/ winter. I don’t think I’ll be financially ready to start in September if they even get it together.

Yea I was thinking of reapplying for the spring and taking another class during the fall to boost up my gpa. Any suggestions on what I should take? I thought about just taking genetics for the hell of it but Westchester Community College only offers the class in the spring.

Did you already take statistics? That one is widely used for most ABSN programs

Yep. I’ve taken that and algebra & trig. I’m thinking maybe biology because I took it over ten years go and got a C in it or maybe pharmacology but I know that class is hard. But I guess I’ll wait to decide by the end of the month when decisions finally go out, if they really do..

Hello,

I actually just got got an email that I was accepted into the accelerated nursing program at Mercy. I am a little apprehensive though bc this would be the first year of the program. I can’t find any info online about pricing or campus location or anything like that.

Congrats! I think pricing is about 9500 a semester and it’s at the Bronx campus and it’s for 18 months. Call Paul Reid or Nancy Ingles.
