Mount Sinai Phillips School of Nursing (PSON) - Fall 2025

Published

I haven't seen anyone start a forum for this cohort, thought I'd give it a try! I got my NursingCAS app verified on Tuesday. PSON emailed me Wednesday they took a preliminary look at my application portfolio asking when I'd be done with my only prereq still in progress and I told them April! Wish everyone luck. 

 

Does anyone know when we can register for classes? Are classes going to be assigned randomly? Also, does anyone taking pathophysiology or pharmacology or both through Portage Learning? Can someone share their experience? Thank you.

hi @Laziza Khamidova I believe the school will be sending an email in June regarding next steps (registering for classes also) etc. Also, the school should be assigning the classes to this group Fall 2025 at the same time- we should follow their list, so it doesn't make sense to be assigning classes randomly.

As far as Portage learning: I took 5 classes with them and I liked it. However, they are very strict with their policies, for instance: their system flagged me twice: first time, they claimed I was looking to the side during a test, which I was; but I explained to them that I needed to look from side to side in order the finish reading the whole question, So this was just dumb! The second time, they claimed one of the answers for a test was flagged that I had used AI LOL. Then I found out that when I wrote for instance "they are not...." then their system would interpret this as if I had used AI tool; then I started using short phrases such as "you aren't" then their system was more likely to accept it as a normal answer. Overall, it was easy going but this strict policy drove me mad. I don't think I will take Pathophysiology and/or Pharmacology with Portage only because I'm much older now and I'm afraid that I won't retain much of the information, and I really don't want to be left behind during the semesters ahead. Other than that, I would actually recommend Portage. I hope this helps.
