LIU Brooklyn Spring 2019 Nursing

Published

Hey everyone!

Didnt see a thread for LIU Brooklyn Campus for the Spring 2019 start. Feeling a little lost with everything. So I just wanted to see if there are other future LIU nursing students entering in the Spring as well! Just made my schedule today, hasn't hit me yet that I will be starting the nursing program but super excited !!! Lol

And yes all the other pre reqs are done! So the fact that one person said not to worry and the other to say otherwise and told me to try to register into a class (which is also funny because since I have an associates credits somewhere else would be taken away or chemistry might not count) so the fact that communication their is inconsistent is also frustrating. Like you said about retaking chem, it’s like if I don’t have a definite answer I just don’t want to waste money like that especially if something is not going to be transferred which forces me to retake something in the end

Did you ever end up getting your answer? I'm a bit conflicted too now because I got accepted into the program with an C+ in chem and stat. I checked my degree audit and it shows that those credit did not transfer. I emailed my advisor and he informs me that I would have to take those classes to graduate which I feel like is very deceiving since I thought that if I got accepted into the program then that means they should've taken in those credits ?

If I've known that I would need to re-take those classes, I wouldn't have applied yet and re-taken it somewhere cheaper and not pay for an extra semester re-taking classes for a hefty price..

Yes I did get an answer!!! Omg he last week and a half has been such an interesting story. Literally got an email last week to saying I got into nursing program to then say 2 hours later the email was sent in mistake, I literally was calling the school nonstop trying to figure out the deal. I finally found out I didn’t get in and what would increase my chances was to take a chem class. The story gets better, yesterday I get an acceptance letter saying I got into their health sciences program and I did get some money. I would of considered it accept for the part that I only need chem class in order to get into nursing HOWEVER there is no guarantee if I’ll get into the program. So I’m also a little conflicted because liu said any chem class they’ll accept however I do still need to reapply and there is no guarantee I’ll get into program...I’m going to go into school next week to meet with someone hoping maybe to get a contingency acceptance letter or in writing that the class I registered for will transfer over. The issue is the other schools I applied to have chem in their program and the chem the other schools want isn’t this chem course and the chem course that’s widely accepted is filled.

I’ll look more closely what you said later because I’m babysitting now!!

But long story short the guy that I’m speaking to helping me out basically said it’s not worth taking class at liu because it’s soo expensive and because it’s one class I won’t get financial aid or scholarship money
