1. Stony Brook FNP Summer 2021

   nursemcsleepy replied to windy8's topic in NP Students

   Not at all! I think I’m a strong candidate - I just meant that I knew that I wasn’t in the program because I never received an interview. It’s a competitive program though, and lots of people who qualify for it won’t make it in. I’m excited...

   Congratulations!

5. Stony Brook FNP Summer 2021

   nursemcsleepy replied to windy8's topic in NP Students

   Please don’t be discouraged! I thought about grad school a few years ago and was told at an info seminar that it was unlikely that I’d get in then. I was too discouraged to apply that year but I’ve been working hard to beef up my resume as much as po...

6. Stony Brook FNP Summer 2021

   nursemcsleepy replied to windy8's topic in NP Students

   It was an unofficial acceptance. It said that they had finished reviewing applications and we would get the official acceptance from SBU in early Spring. I feel like they had less applicants than the other programs though. As far as I know PNP was th...

   Got the email today that I was accepted into the PNP program! has anyone else heard?

8. Stony Brook FNP Summer 2021

   nursemcsleepy replied to windy8's topic in NP Students

   @Deerunnergirl I didn’t think to ask! They gave us time to ask questions at the end, but everyone I interviewed with was so impressive and I think I was too nervous to think of a good question for them. But they did tell us that they’ll be starting t...

   @Deerunnergirl thank you! There were four of us and two members of the faculty. It was really relaxed, and everyone was super nice.

    I applied for FNP and PNP on 12/1. I had my PNP interview last week but haven’t heard anything yet from the FNP application.

11. If you could redo it....would you choose nursing?

    nursemcsleepy replied to ICURNPA92's topic in General Nursing

    I would have gone into audiology. I like patient care and never want to change that aspect of my job, but I do want more autonomy. Or since I'm applying to NP schools, I might have gone straight for PA.

12. Favorite RN Position

    nursemcsleepy replied to KT_RN's topic in General Nursing

    Pedi float pool!

13. ER rushing patients to the floor

    nursemcsleepy replied to freckles23's topic in General Nursing

    I think the real problem is that you have nine patients on a tele floor! That seems insanely unsafe, and makes me wonder how unsafe the ratios are in the ER.

14. Starting Nursing career in a new state

    nursemcsleepy replied to Future RN S.B.'s topic in Career Support

    I highly recommend Texas, especially the Houston area, if you're looking to relocate for nursing. There are so many major hospitals here, highly ranked, and you'll gain great experience in the field. Most major hospitals in the med center have amazin...

15. Because I'm a big baby

    nursemcsleepy replied to yarrumzil's topic in Humor

    Ooh glad you learned that NICU and peds aren't for you while you're still in school. But next time try sucrose? Baby crack works wonders on the little ones.
