NYU Accelerated Nursing Fall 2020

Published

Hi guys! Thought I'd make a forum for NYU's ABSN Program for fall 2020.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Alexis Paige. Currently in California. I received my BA in psych from a private university with a GPA below 3.0. Took pre-reqs in multiple community college while working. Ended up with the same GPA as undergrad ?

Here's my stats:

Anatomy: C (planning to retake in spring 2020)

Physio: A-

Microbio: C+ (planning to retake in spring 2020)

Chem for health sciences: C+

Nutrition: A

Stats: C

Lifespan dev: B

Volunteer experience at Stanford University. Do you think I have chance with NYU? I feel like my only hope in getting in are the letter of recs + personal essay.

Feel free to comment whatever is on your mind. What are your stats? Where are you from and what other schools will you be applying at? Help a sistah out!

congratulations! pace is a good school but I agree nyu is nyu. and thanks for the suggestion! do both schools have a deadline for deposit???

I was looking for Mt. St. Vincent and I don't see a deadline but that last day for deposits is May 1st. Pace was February 1st and the deposit was 2 weeks after receiving acceptance. I deferred Pace acceptance to next year because of everything that is going on, you never know. Who know where this virus is taking us, so I thought it would be better safe than sorry.

did any of you complete fasfa??? the recent email said to complete find it weird to do fafsa for a school IDK will accept me

I did it but at least it was free. CSS was $25. I don't even know what CSS is.

I did FAFSA but not CSS because I'm not paying more money until I'm accepted somewhere. But you don't HAVE to fill out FAFSA for an admissions decision, they've said. But it's free, so might as well!

I thought the deadline is tomorrow for CSS? That was the only reason I did it ?

Letters are optional so you should be okay!

Can someone clarify if we should fill out fafsa. From my understanding, second bachelors degrees don’t qualify for fafsa so what’s the point in filling out?

I BELIEVE it's because the school does offer some scholarships and go off of your FAFSA but I could be misinformed.

It qualifies you for federal loans. The only alternative (that I know of) would be private loans or paying out of pocket.
