Hi all,

Has anyone applied to and/or gotten an admission decision from Mount Sinai PSON for the ABSN program starting Summer 2020?

Thanks!

CONGRATS to everyone that got accepted! I got into Wagner and BI. I wanted both but didn’t think I’d make both. LOL . Not that I’m complaining by any means, it’s an honor! I honestly want Mt. Sinai more because it is cheaper and the clinicals are better BUT the commute is a HUGE deterrent for me. Would be close to 2 hours each way, and that area is a bit shady. I’m curious if everyone is accepting a seat or deterred by the new location at all?

CONGRATS again everyone! We’ve all worked very hard to make it here! ?

Hi @sha17! Are you coming from Staten Island by any chance? I ask because I am from there and I have the same commuting concerns! I also got into Wagner LOL

Why do everyone keep saying the area is shady? Is it because its in Harlem? I can't imagine a school going some place terrible to put their students in danger.

Harlem got a lot better and its fine in daylight, but the main concern is 125th and lexington is one of the worst train stations. It is a major drug spot and have a lot of homeless and crazies walking around the station. It is a major deterrent for me but I dont have many options since I havent finished my prerequisites. I’m thinking of driving there, or hopefully travel in a group if someone lives around me.

Where are you planning to take pharmacology and path? I think you should be able to get it done , July is a while away and especially with being quarantined LOL more time to stay home and study LOL

I wonder if classes will continue to be online or on campus due to covid

I have been giving this a lot of thought and I think I may do patho.

Thank you! And I saw that we have until July 31st now to transfer pre/coreqs. That should be helpful to complete either patho or pharm before then, right?!

Take both pharm and patho if you can! Don’t worry so much about the due date for the transfer of pre/coreqs. Just make sure you communicate that with them.. I know people who were still sending their grades in the beginning of our first semester. Hope this helped!

For anyone who is already enrolled for pathophysiology through Portage Learning, how long/dense is one module? How long did it take you to complete module 1? The syllabus states that each module should take about two weeks to complete. I’m concerned I won’t be able to fully take in the information and complete the course in time.

I just had a thought.. I still need to complete the BLS certification before school starts but I doubt anywhere is offering them due to Covid. If you have already received yours, where did you do the training?

I too would like an answer to this question.

We have to take it through the American Heart Association and they are still allowing people to register for the certification. So they’re probably still offering it.

Awesome! Good to know. I will probably register for one soon. Another question.. did any of you also apply/get accepted to Mercy ABSN program? I got into mount Sinai and mercy. Was wondering if anyone is making a decision between the two?
