Nassau Community College Nursing program Fall 2020

Published

Hello everyone,

I did not see a thread for upcoming Fall 2020. Who has applied for this window that closes March 13th? What are your stats? I want to know like yesterday if I got in. This wait is the worst. Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you.

Oh I get it! I'm totally not questioning it, I just have looked at other comm colleges like where we live now in Virginia and it's a bit different. When you start the nursing school it's a full 2 years, done, you have your RN. Followed by 1-2 semesters concurrently at a local university to get the BSN.

I'm actually waitlisted at SBU's 2 year basic program and did put a deposit in at Molloy which isn't very cheap but I'd have the BSN in two years.

Shoot - I'll definitely have to weigh my options and talk with advising etc.

THANK YOU!! I do appreciate the feedback. No one in advising or admissions ever gave me straight up answers. I kept getting the "nursing decisions will come out at the end of April" email that we all know and love!

Yea they don't like to answer questions via email or phone calls. They make you go to the info sessions to get questions answered. I went to 2 info sessions to keep things straight. I went to one before the program became multi award and then had to go again to understand how things would work once they changed the curriculum.

Be careful with Molloy. It's a great school/program. It is very expensive. Really clarify with them how long it will take you because my friend had a bachelors already and went there, they told her 2 years, it took 3 and I have heard that happen to other people.

The program does take the full 8 semesters unfortunately. No way around that. I have a bachelors already as well.

The way the program is set up now you don't take any nurses courses the first semester. The second semester you start with NUR 101 fundamentals. Then you have NUR 105, NUR 203 and NUR 204. You can only take one of those at a time and they aren't offered over Summer. After those are completed though you get the associates and can sit for NCLEX and then you finish the last 3 semesters online and you can start working while you do this. Nassau is not an accelerated program and unfortunately there is no way to do it any faster.

I got in for the day! WOO HOOO!! I was screaming and jumping for joy! Congratulations everyone who got in so far!

We should definitely start a FB group or what's app chat or something.

Can't wait to meet you all ?

It makes total sense, but I was hoping to at least take NUR 101 in my first semester. It seems like a waste to only take 1 online history course and nothing else ....

But CONGRATS on getting in!!!

I was wondering if Empire offers the western civ and society and aging class over the Summer? I was hoping to try and take those in the Summer to be able to start NUR 101 in the fall.

Yeah Molloy is super pricey but I do have a GI Bill to help which I'm very lucky. 'll have to followup with the admissions person I've spoken with because I am 2 courses behind that can be taken this Summer and they said TWO YEARS. I'll have to get that in writing!!

Totally didn't realize there were 2 threads. I got an evening acceptance!! Excited to start and meet everyone!

@sasilb It’s just an automated message the nursing department sends to everyone when you email them. They usually give you an actual response the next day

for the people that got accepted, can you post your classes and grade you got to get into the program so that those of us getting nervous might be able to calm down?
