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! ?

These things were reported all the way up to the Dean of Students... she did nothing as well. That is why it is being reported to ACEN who accredits the nursing program, Middle States, who accredits the school.

I’m not sure there’s much that the ACEN can do with their “scoring” system. I looked at it when picking schools and it addresses curriculum, lab setting, overall student achievement, things like that. I’d be curious to see if they could take any actions due to what seems to ultimately comes down to administration/professor issues, not the program as a whole itself.

There are reports being submitted against the professors' licenses... They could lose their license. They may also face criminal charges for fraud. ESC does not know about this yet. Besides, ESC is not really a top level school anyway. This is all just starting. The last person just graduated a few weeks ago.

Did anyone receive any billing for the online BS part of the program ??

No. Has anyone gotten any sort of response to the cross registration we did at the interview? I'm just gonna call the nursing office today and get an update.

I was looking into applying as a transfer student...I thought we can apply before having all these classes completed. There were no mention of required prerequisites. Am I mistaken?

You can still apply without having completed all the prerequisites. But the prerequisites are still apart of the program so you'd need to take them alongside the main nursing courses. But I think the more prerequisites you have under your belt, the easier it is to get in to the program

Can anyone give me any insight on what shoes they purchased for the program? Are you allowed to wear white clogs?

Hey,

They told us they have to be closed shoes and recommend we go with the Nursemate ones (I got mine on Amazon). No clogs and no sneakers. Any thoughts on what to wear for orientation next week?

Thank you! And I'm not really sure, I would think it would be okay to dress casually but I could be wrong.

Hey guys! So I’m in semester 1 Day program and I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about the math test that we will be taking? I think we are supposed to hand in the “pre-test”, but what is the math test going to entail? Do we get calculators? If we don’t pass are we out of the program? Multiple attempts? Thank you so much!

You don’t have to take the math test . They said don’t worry about it .

Thank you so much! Did they happen to say why?
