New Jersey City University (NJCU) Accelerated Nursing 2019

Published

Hi all!

I know it may be a bit early but I like to always get the ball rolling. Is there anyone that is looking to apply to the 2019-2020 accelerated nursing cohort at NJCU?? I'm looking to connect so we can keep each other updated throughout the process.

Damn @ $450

For sure...it’s steep lol initially it’s $250. But then it says if you’re not planning on using the residencial halls, to give another $200

Same! Waitlisted! This waiting process is stressing me out.

Was your decision given to you via e-mail or mail or both? Congrats btw. I got waitlisted at Pace University but it drove me nuts because I'll be on it until their orientation starts in August.

From what I know, decisions from Caldwell are by mail and you should get them by May 1st. I got mine through email, but I had spoken with the admissions counselor about it. I’ve been having mail delivery issues in my neighborhood so I asked if I could get it by email.

Congrats! Do you mind sharing your stats?

I see some people have brought up Chamberlain... prior to today, I have never heard of their nursing program. If someone doesn't mind, can someone explain why they don't have such a good reputation? Trying to keep my options open as decisions (hopefully) get closer.

I heard from older RNs (around their 30s) that already work at hospitals in the NY and north NJ area that Chamberlain is known for a really low pass rate for the NCLEX/ they don't prepare their students well/ lots of cheaters/ the staff doesn't care as much/ higher-tier hospitals look down on their educators/ etc.. I wanted to keep my options open and apply anyway BUT the advisor I was assigned to really bugged me so much. She rarely responded to my e-mails/important questions about applying and taking the HESI. I found the staff there unprofessional when I came in to take the test. So aside from rumors, I just got pretty bad vibes from there when I visited. And I think I could do better in terms of ABSNs. So while I did get accepted, I defered my decision. They said they'd allow me to reapply for their start date in September.

I also got waitlisted at Pace! But did not know we had to wait until August...

Sure! I was a Bio major with a Neuro concentration and a psych minor. I worked in an ER for 5+ years and the last 2 of those years, I started working in Psych also. My pre-reqs were all As, except for one B+

**** Sorry guys. Deposit for Caldwell is $250. Additional $200 if you’re planning to dorm. My bad lol

Hopefully today's the day... good luck everyone ?

Guys my nerves are on edge I just feel like this is messing with my emotions. The fact of not knowing is like realistically I wouldn’t be shocked with a rejection but a little piece of me feels like maybe they’ll see a potential in me. I know I’m unique but idk if they’re really gonna care.

I feel the same @maryhamm, I just want to hear something already.

What if decisions aren’t on a Monday or a Friday?! Lol . Do y’all know something I don’t?! Just trying to lighten the mood up for today. Too much anxiety in the air lol.

Regardless, best wishes all !
