Lehman College 2018 Fall Generic BSN/ABSN applicants!

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hello, everyone applying to Lehman's BSN/ABSN programs for Fall 2018!

I am currently working on my application and will very soon take HESI. I know application period does not start until January 1, but I thought I would create a thread so we could get in touch and support each other on the way to (keeping fingers crossed!) being accepted!

So do we need to purchase the liability insurance?

If you're a generic or accelerated student, no. If you are an RN-BSN or Graduate student, yes.

I'm having trouble finding some of the documents they want us to sign and bring in, like the academic integrity papers. Do you know where I can find them?

Those papers are in the orientation packet. The Acadamic Intregrity papers are on 16-19 for me. The consent to release personal documents is on page 15.

Do you guys think the school will provide lunch during Monday's orientation or we should bring our own lunch?

I'm bringing my own lunch just in case. I also received an email today telling me the day my fit test is scheduled for so check your emails :)

The fit test is 2-4pm. Now I'm thinking that they won't. I'll probably bring a snack and some money to purchase some food if I need to.

Also, it's sort of silly. I think they should've kept the fit test on the 17th. We're going in on the 17th to take a dosage calculation test and then we're leaving? That's a waste of time in my opinion.

I agree, if they decided to move the fit test on the 16, they might as well have scheduled the dosage quiz on that same day as well.

I'd rather get as much done in one day as possible. My job needs me to come into work on tuesday anyway so the sooner I am quite happy that I only need to take the dosage exam and then leave. I would've actually been even happier if I could take the dosage exam on Monday.

I suspect that there will be light breakfast in the morning. Coffee and bagels/muffins/ect.

Another great idea. I wouldn't mind doing everything on Monday honestly. I had to take off on Tuesday and I can't get that day back now.

As I said to FutureNurseInfo, I would rather have had the calculation test on Monday too. If I had known that I would've been at Lehman for only an hour or two on Tuesday, I would've requested to come in late instead of taking the day completely off. Oh well, nothing I can do now.

But this is what we're going to have to prepare for. A lot of students have stated that sometimes we'll randomly be called in for something and if we don't go, we risk getting kicked out of the program.

I'm sure there will be food there.
