  1. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    As I understood it, they don't require any LoRs but you can send in 1-2. I inadvertently had 3 people send them in for me because I wasn't sure if one of my recommenders was going to have enough time...

  2. Quinnipiac ABSN 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to Brittanyec's topic in School, College Programs

    Omg is it too late to fill out the FAFSA? Sorry for the stupid question, it's been years since I've had to deal with this fin aid

  3. UCONN CEIN/BS 2018

    blackberrymousse replied to amandafaithhh's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I declined my spot at the Storrs campus. When I applied I thought I could do a 12 month program but after a lot of soul-searching and talking with other nursing students and my advisors, I think a 12...

  4. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    I called them and they have everything except one transcript which I already suspected hasn't been sent out yet or was sent out just recently from the school I requested it. People I talked to on the...

  5. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    Just checked my application status on Albert and it still doesn't say that they received my transcripts -- it's been more than four weeks (more like six weeks already) since I submitted my...

    HappyHolisticRN, please share here what the fin aid department has to say after you call them! I think many of us are trying to figure out how to pay for this

  7. Simmons ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to crowland1113's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks for the info, I'll definitely reach out about that TCE. Now the UMass Boston program rings a bell. I remember not applying because the deadline was like Dec 1st and I wouldn't have had all my...

  8. Simmons ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to crowland1113's topic in School, College Programs

    How soon after you got your acceptance letter did you get your TCE? I got accepted back in mid-Feb and I still haven't received mine. Maybe I need to contact their registrar's office on Monday. I'm...

  9. Simmons ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to crowland1113's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi! Congrats! I also got into both schools, but I haven't decided yet. UMass would be cheaper for me, but I like Simmons' location better. Have you gotten your TCE (Transfer Credit Evaluation) from...

  10. UCONN CEIN/BS 2018

    blackberrymousse replied to amandafaithhh's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Thanks so much, Eglute! The schedule sounds intense as do the clinicals. I think it's good they're trying to move towards paperless, but I agree with you that it seems weird to be doing it...

  11. UCONN CEIN/BS 2018

    blackberrymousse replied to amandafaithhh's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Hi Eglute, Thanks for offering to ask questions on our behalf! I got into the Storrs campus and I think most of my questions are specific to location and such. I am worried about whether I'd be able...

  12. Did anyone get their BSN at a very prestigious school?

    blackberrymousse replied to nsm1639's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm very curious about this too. Most highly ranked BSN programs are very disproportionately expensive (given the projected salaries of nurses) and I'm wondering if it's worth it. What makes these BSN...

  13. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    shamadi, have you looked at the threads about Pace on these forums? I did before narrowing down what programs to apply to and it sounded like the ABSN program at Pace is rather iffy just fyi. I don't...

  14. Are there any miscellaneous classes you suggest taking to help with nursing school?

    blackberrymousse replied to tmurph704's topic in General Students

    I'm taking Pathophysiology even though it's not required for any of the programs I applied to. Just to hopefully get a little bit of a head start on what I've heard is one of the harder classes 1st or...

  15. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    Holy smokes, shamadi, is it really that much? For some reason, I thought tuition was only around 50,000, but I think I must've been naive/in denial. Being 90,000+ in the hole from nursing school and...

  16. UCONN CEIN/BS 2018

    blackberrymousse replied to amandafaithhh's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    My undergrad gpa is 3.9 and my nursing pre-reqs gpa is 4.0, however gpa is only one part of what nursing schools

  17. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    What's even funnier, shamadi, is that I applied for UMass Amherst at the very last minute too -- I found out pretty late about their ABSN program and decided I wanted to apply. To be perfectly honest,...

  18. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    Most schools are kind of lenient about supporting materials like transcripts and LoRs because they know that is out of your control -- most will accept them after the deadline. Throughout my academic...

  19. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    orchid17, I'm never going to dissuade someone from applying to get an education at a school they want to attend. Worse thing that can happen is you get rejected and you're out the application fee. If...

  20. UCONN CEIN/BS 2018

    blackberrymousse replied to amandafaithhh's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    mel246, I just re-read my acceptance letter and you are absolutely right. We first have to send the accept/decline form back and upon receipt of that then UCONN will send a registration form. That's...

  21. UCONN CEIN/BS 2018

    blackberrymousse replied to amandafaithhh's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Got my acceptance letter yesterday to the Storrs campus. They give very little time for you to decide, I have a week to send in my deposit (which is the most expensive one out of all the schools I got...

    Thanks for the info, shamadi! I also got accepted to U Mass Amherst, what a

  23. Direct Entry of nursing Fall 2017 at Simmons

    blackberrymousse replied to loulounia's topic in School, College Programs

    Did anyone go to the open house on the 25th? Would love to hear about impressions and any info you can share,

  24. NYU ABSN Fall 2017

    blackberrymousse replied to jss469t77's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks very much for all the info, cowgirlwalkabout! Which number did you call so I can make sure I call the correct one? Luckily, most of the other schools don't have really high deposits so worst...

    rdl03, it was a regular sized envelope. A little bit thick b/c it contained 3-4 pages of
