NYU College of Nursing: Traditional and Accelerated BSN

[spade11]

Hi Everyone,

I see a lot of posts about different Nursing schools that have specific questions. I thought it might make it more organized if there was a specific thread where people could come to ask questions about NYU and even see previously answered questions or questions you may not have even thought of yet.

I would encourage any NYU Grad's that have information or answers to questions to chime in. I, personally, find comfort in people's experiences and their ideas or 'tricks' to help you get through. Also, not all questions are answered about NYU. So, why not graduates help answer some questions.

Unfortunately, I had no one to ask when going into Nursing school so it was pretty much trial and error. If I could help anyone that would otherwise be in my previous position, I'd be more than happy to.

A little bit about me: As per the Title I did go to NYU's Nursing School. I was a traditional student (right out of high school) I attended from August 2007- May 2011. (I'm 24) I've had my license for almost two years now.

I can answer questions ranging from classes to teachers to simulation labs to hospitals to externships to scholarships to life at NYU to ways to get involved in the College of Nursing as well as ways to get involved at NYU in general to being a New Grad. And I'm sure if I can't answer a question fully there is someone else on these boards that I am sure will help you. :)

You're also more than welcome to PM me.

My Best,

Chris

Omg, I am so glad.

Hi Chris, I am a pre nursing student who plan on transferring to NYU for nursing. What is the gpa that nyu wants to be in the program? Do they have an entrance test? How was the program? How long did it take you to find a job.

It would help a lot!

Thanks
