  1. Completely random. But, if you have a certain living/commuter situation...You have to talk/e-mail with Dr. Johnson and Sam. It is case-by-case
  2. Yes! There is. It is by semester,
  3. I've shared the folder with you. Please let your future classmates use them too!
  4. So far, we have been sent to Jersey City Medical Center, Newark Beth Israel Medical Center, Robert Wood Johnson (New Brunswick), Robert Wood Johnson (Somerset), Monmouth Medical Center, Jersey Shore...
  5. Please PM me your
  6. If you ladies and gentlemen want to meet up before my Pharmacology class at 1PM, I can show you
  7. They usually start at 8 or 9. Clinicals start typically at 7 or 6:45. I have a few classmates who are commuting from Brooklyn. They somehow manage, although I'm sure the commute is super long
  8. Yes, all classes are in Rossey Hall on either the 5th or 4th floor. You will usually have 1-2 days free from class/clinicals. Although be warned, you can possibly have clinicals on the weekends, if...
  9. No, there shouldn't be any problems. If they ask, just say that you're going to place a deposit for the nursing program. Definitely take the chance to tour when you're free though!
  10. You're welcome too! Rossey Hall is across from the Student Union Building/Art Building/Science Building. It's just off center from the middle of campus. There are two entrances you can enter from. If...
  11. You're welcome! Yes, a few hours you can probably live with. Also, there are shuttles that are available and free. You can also walk too, it's not too bad. Security is also present as well on all the...
  12. Anytime! I am here to help. Also, it is an accreditated program since 1977 through the New Jersey Board of Nursing. The National League of Nursing also has accreditation for the school since 1979. In...
  13. I am holding up well, and it is certainly doable. I'm working per-diem still (which I can surprisingly manage). Housing near campus is pretty good, especially where the West Campus is (very nice...
  14. All of those are important, especially when you are doing the Health Assessment class. You will need to remember cranial nerves, where deep tendon reflexes are (DTRs), and muscle groups for...
  15. For those that didn't make it in, just know that it is indeed VERY competitive. From talking with Dr. Johnson and other faculty, a lot of the applications seem to be down to the wire as there are many...
  16. One of my classmates is actually from California. The change in scenery is definitely big, but she seems to be coping well with it. She was even able to visit back home for Winter Break and Spring...
  17. No, just focus on Anatomy & Physiology as much as you can. You will need this to understand pathological processes, which is critical to nursing care. I promise you, you can and will cope. It's a...
  18. I will not comment on Rutgers, as I have to have a neutral stance on it since I am unfamiliar with their curriculum/style. HOWEVER, there are a lot of faculty in our program who have graduated from...
  19. Everyone is usually there until 6PM, Monday-Thursday. If anything, e-mail Samantha Younker for any special arrangements at [email protected]. I almost forgot to mention, start getting your blood...
  20. If you head down today, be careful with street parking. They are VERY stringent about parking rules and towing. Since the lots require a pass and ID card, you can also park in the garage next to the...
  21. If you all want, I have some of the books you will need for your first semester as e-books. Just let me know so you can invite me to your Google Drive,

  23. This is a great idea to get everyone together. I did the same thing for our current cohort (which I am still the admin for). Another thing we also did was to set up a GroupMe chat. You'll really get...
  24. The e-mail that will be most important for you all that this moment will be Ms. Samantha Younker (affectionately called Sam). She is the Accelerated BSN Program Assistant to Dr. Shanda Johnson (who...
  25. I can only speak as a current NJCU ABSN student at the Jersey City campus. NJCU's program is 12 months (although it's realistically 10 months, if you include your breaks). It is the shortest ABSN in...
