the only ones i did not apply to were the ones in pa, because i did not know too much info about where the airports were and stuff. i know that all the sites in ny have close airport access. did you ask about if that cancellation opening on my weekend was still available?

No mam I am testing in Syracuse, remember? LOL... I have talked to so far five people so far who have passed there and said it was an amazing site. I have also heard nothing but good about Utica too. I try really hard not to pay attention to the negative posts about the CPNE, I like to read the reasons that caused people to fail if they share them so I don't make the same mistakes, but the negative banter I just overlook... don't have time to be anything but positive :-)

Did you end up using one of the hotels EC recommends? I did and I asked a friend of mine who lives in the area and she said it's an awesome hotel so I am excited, they even have vegan (I'm vegan and such a picky eater) options on their room service menu and I was like sweet, this is where I'm meant to be!!!

Oh maybe they are mailing it in the reg mail? I got mine in the EC message center. I am staying at the Genessee. The EC rate is $100 a night, I checked out the room service menu and they offer free shuttle to and from the hospital and airport so I was sold on it. EC recommends the Genessee and the Parkview, my friend also recommended the Sheraton, Jefferson Clinton and the Crowne Plaza. I was told by a friend (who works at SUNY Crouse Hospital) that the area is not somewhere you would want to be walking alone at night, cause I was planning to walk and save on taxis, but I haven't ever been there so I am not sure.

I too thought about walking but read the same thing. I will be renting a car obviously. The genesse is $100/night!?! How do i get that rate?? The jefferson clinton was almost double that! Does your friend like the hospital??

You call and say you are a student w/Excelsior College and you are taking the CPNE at Upstate and would like the Excelsior rate. She works in Crouse hospital so it will be a hike from where we will be but went to the hospital nursing school and never left Syracuse, she loves it there. She said the hospital is enormous, It's all connected by tunnels she said it's Upstate, Crouse, a psych hospital and the children's hospital so we will absolutely be having peds patient.
