I applied to Nassau Community College today for the Spring 2010 semester. I understand that the Spring class is much smaller than the Fall semester. Would anyone mind sharing -- I applied with a 3.75 and all pre-reqs done. Anyone out there get in to the January class in the past with a comparable GPA? I understand that it's all according to the pool of GPA's they receive - 4.0's first, but I'm looking for a glimmer of hope.
It took about 2 hours and then another hour and a half standing on line at the registrar. Questions were about stress management. Essay was about how you cope in difficult situations. Also had to define 5 words and use them in a sentence. Nothing too hairy.
FYI - Don't bother hitting the bookstore when you're done - the books aren't in yet!
I was told that today's interviews are for night students - is that correct?
I'd call first just to make sure. The shelves for Nursing (and in general, really)were pretty bare - they don't appear to be stocked for fall classes yet. I will probably purchase mine on line, which can be cheaper sometime, too.
She called the bookstore...you can pre-order and pre-pay for the books anytime. When they come in , the bookstore will contact you to pick up your order. If you do it like that, you can avoid the mad rush .
Hey...according to my schedule i will be there on Mondays you? I'm so happy i got in i dont care where they put me even though i would have preferred Mid Island but its OK.
Just a suggestion .. besides the book with the lab manual I highly suggest ordering the books on Amazon. Majority of the time you could buy used copies that look brand new and cost ALOT less. Bookstores at colleges normally increase the prices to an obscene number.
