Hi all. I'm starting a forum for NYU Spring 2021. I know the application goes live soon so might as well make one now.
I applied for Fall 2020 but didn't get in so I'm applying for the second time. Good luck to us all!

Does anyone got a generous financial aid ?
Any suggestions for private loans?
I haven't received any decision from NYU yet, but I'm also interested in private loan suggestions for the future no matter what program I end up entering!

Also, I see that you're deciding between BSN and MSN. What factors are going into that decision???
Well, with Rush, if I decide to apply there for my DNP (Im thinking CRNA or FNP), I will get free tuition (granted I get in when that time comes LOL). Im still deciding what exactly I want to do within nursing, but the program at Rush will also leave me with my CNL certificate, so that can open up the doors to some leadership positions. Additionally, the aid (a decent scholarship and fed loans are great since it’s a professional degree and not an undergraduate) I got is pretty great. With Rutgers, the program is shorter, I could start working faster, and if I don’t go to rush for my DNP, I wouldn’t have to take a bunch of graduate level classes over again. I've also heard lots of folks who say they were glad they didn’t do a GEM program to start out with. So it will be a touch decision! I hope you hear back from NYU soon! What other schools are you deciding on?

Congrats! You got into all excellent programs. I haven't looked into Rush but I do remember seeing that Rutgers is more affordable than NYU by a bit. Particularly if you are in-state, but even if you are from out-of-state.
