Fall 2019 Nassau Community College Nursing Program

Published

Hi all! I’ve searched around & haven’t seen any threads on the Fall 2019 NCCC Nursing program applicants so I decided to start one. I would love to hear from current applicants, current/past students, family or friends of NCCC nurses. Any feedback is appreciated. Feel free to join in & let’s chat! ?

I believe so, but if I'm not mistaken think you can take the NCLEX after 2 years and then transfer somewhere else, but don't quote me on it. I'd suggest calling the nursing department and asking in case I'm wrong!

I think they only offer the 4 yesr BSN program now. You get an associates degree and BSN at the completion of the program. You can take the NCLEX to be an RN after you complete your associates dont have to wait until your BSN. I did hear at info session i attended that you can transfer to another school after you complete your Associates and do your BSN somewhere else but dont quote me on that. You should ask the nursing dept.

Hi Everyone,

I got into the Nursing Fall 2019 First Semester as well. Does anyone know what the interview is like ?

Congratulations! I am in 101 now and still can’t believe I got in. Whenever I get overwhelmed with all the work I just remind myself how lucky I am to be in the program and it gets me back on track.

Can you tell us about the interview/Registration, and advisement process ?

To my understanding, everyone has to retake that history class offered by ESC. It's an "upper division" class that is 4 credits and I'm assuming that most of us took history courses worth 3 credits, including myself.

Idk if things will be the same with the change in the program but for me they gave us a date and time to come in. We had to write a personal essay. We registered that day and then the advisor read over your essay and that was it. They went over your credits and what courses you were missing if any.

We had to bring it that day and during the “interview” the lady just read it and said very good, you don’t have any classes to take other than the nursing classes, go register. And that was the end of that. I was there for maybe 2 hours if that much.

Just follow the instructions attached to your acceptance email. I didn't have to upload anything.
