Concordia Fall 2014 ABSN Program

Published

Hey everyone!

I thought I'd start a thread for those of us applying to Concordia for the upcoming fall semester. Previous classes have had really active threads in this forum, and I'd love to meet some of my potential (fingers crossed!) new classmates. I just had my interview, so now I'm in the checking-my-mailbox-everyday phase of the application process :nailbiting:

How is everyone feeling? Have you applied anywhere else? Was anyone else surprised by the TEAS requirement?

Hope to hear from you!

@copelam5280 I'll be at the orientation tomorrow! Have you heard of anything we should bring or what the dress code is? After I emailed back saying I would be attending on the 19th I didn't hear anything back

FYI - I stopped by Frank Bee's today to check out the sizes for the scrubs & lab coat, and the sizes run HUGE. I am 5'5" and was swimming in the XS.

@ManilaEclair thanks for the heads up with the sizes for the scrubs...Did you end up getting the XS? I'm 5'4 so I'll be in the same boat as you.

memw, I did go with the XS. They offer XXS, but he didn't have any available to try on. I probably should have gone with the XXS scrub top, bc that polyester is definitely not shrinking in the dryer! haha The XS pants were incredibly wide, but the length was just about right for my height. The salesperson I spoke to said they would be ready the first wk of August.

i was looking into this school and noticed the fall 2104 application is still up. What is the deadline?

Hi!

So much to figure out before August. Ha!

Has anybody had any luck with apartment searching?

I am looking to live near Bronxville but probably not in it.

Congrats to all accepted and I look forward to meeting you all!

@ashleykb I've been looking at apartments through craiglist!. It definitely takes a lot of searching. I've spoken to a few people who are leasing them. I actually have an appt to see one on tuesday.

Thanks for that! Yes, I lived in NYC before I came back to Atlanta to do my core classes and it did seem Craigslist was the way to go! However, I am arranging from Atlanta so it is a challenge! Are you planning on living near Bronxville?

the search is difficult!. I plan to live near Bronxville yes. The one I am seeing on tuesday is in New Rochelle though.

Great. I was looking at New Rochelle as well. However, I may opt for the Bronx!

I liked the idea of having a Facebook page. It would be a good way to get a sense of community going.

At this point, I am just telling myself....step by step...

I definitely am open to location!. I was talking to someone at orientation about a facebook page too. The prior cohorts have had a group too.

I've been looking in Bronxville and areas around it as well. Has anyone applied for on campus housing/heard back? I sent in my application about a month ago and haven't heard anything. Also I think a facebook page/group is a great idea! :)
