Hi..Im new here..and I am currently at Kingsborough CC taking my pre-rec's and I am thinking about applying to Ellis Hospital SON. Does anyone currently go or went to Ellis? Likes or Dislikes about the program. Any responses would be much appreciated. Thanks and God Bless. - Melissa

I worked at Ellis, and applied to their SON, but they have quite a waiting list (1-2 years). I ended up getting accepted right away into a pricier school that's a little more of a drive for me, so I go there, but I know many nurses who went to Ellis and have nothing but good things to say about it. From what I've heard, you get a very good mix of patient populations in your clinicals, which are 2 days a week. Of course, I'm just comparing to my school, where we go to one unit, say oncology, or cardiovascular, and stay there all semester, they move around a lot more. Let me know if there's anything else you want to know, I'll ask around and find out if I don't have an answer for you.

I am also looking into Ellis Hospital School of Nursing and I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the advanced placement for LPNs? What does it exempt LPNs from and how much faster does it make the program?
Thanks

hi my name is Joanna, since i see you went to kings borough
and i want to go to kings borough community college and im wondering what is the gpa that actually gets someone into the program. the minimum is 2.5 to get in but im sure they expect a higher gpa
my only question is what is the actual gpa for the people that got in to the program.
if you are one of the students that got into the program pleas tell me what was your gpa.
thank you !

Which school did you go to? Just wondering... I have been accepted to a school here in New Jersey for Fall 2010 but would like to move up to the Albany area this summer. I feel lost since I don't know much about the schools up that way.
Thank you! :)
