Long Island University (LIU), Brooklyn ABSN/generic BS program - Fall 2025

[Studentnurse0202_]

Hi all , 

I haven't seen any recent forums about Long Island University's ( Brooklyn campus) accelerated/generic program for nursing. I have been accepted to the generic BS program which is 4 semesters. I initially applied for the accelerated program however I was told I did not meet the GPA requirements. Anyone else applied for the Fall 2025 absn and got accepted to the generic program instead? or in the past? what happened and did you go attend the program? I am just trying to weigh out my options. I was looking at the curriculum for the program and it's about 122 credits, with 60 something credits being the general courses and 59 credits of the actual nursing courses. I have completed all of the general courses that I see on their website, I am going to set up an appointment to speak with an admissions counselor there. 

Anyone else going through this?

Did you decide to go there? What did the admission counselor say ?

So I was told that the only difference between the generic and the absn is that the absn students will graduate in the Fall and the generic will graduate the following Spring, so as far as the time frame the difference is only a few months. I've decided to go there since I haven't heard back from other programs

are you going?

Have you heard any information about the school and I'm thinking about going
