Hey everyone, I'm currently in the NYU 2nd Bachelor's in Nursing Program though as a "non accelerated" student. Out of lockdown boredom made this little video about the application process including some stats (about a 3.2 GPA, did my first bachelor'...

I think he means that folks who already have a bachelor's degree are not eligible for NYU scholarships, but will receive a financial aid summary breaking down what federal aid they are eligible for as well as what costs are approved for private loans...

Unfortunately I was not eligible for Hunter's program (I did not pass a class back in undergrad, more than 10 years ago, even though I re-took it and got an A, I was told it was a deal breaker at the info session). A lot of the public schools seem mo...

This sounds about right. Except, only 75k in loans? You must have some savings! ;-P (FML, agreed) I believe tuition for accelerated students will be 24k+ per semester (a flat rate for students taking between 12-18 credits, and I believe all semester...

I called financial aid today and was told I should get information about what I am eligible for around Wednesday next week. I think I could get a maximum of $12,500 in Federal Government loans, so a small fraction of the total cost. I was/am expec...

Anybody else doing research on private student loans want to connect? The financial aid department at NYU is not allowed to really advise regarding private loans, though they do offer this list of lenders: Financial Aid and Scholarships

I was accepted as a non-accelerated student today. I applied before the early deadline (March 1st). I actually did my undergrad at NYU, too, majoring in psychology (~10 years ago). My GPA was around a 3.2. I still need to take (or re-take, b/c they a...
I did my nurse aide training at a private school/training program in NY. There's a career services department at the school/program, and my impression is that the school gets some kind of kickback for placing me with an agency. I'm not opposed to...

Since it's 500 words max, I felt I should focus on selecting the "right" thing to write about, and less on fancy prose or charming storytelling. I tried to be very succinct, clean, and deliberate with it. Ultimately, mine focused on my specific lon...

I think admissions decisions are staggered...I recall reading something to this effect while looking at the threads for prior cohorts for this program.
bornagainnurse2b replied to NPDanie's topic in School Programs
I'm also curious about the non-accelerated program specifically. I have to take four pre-reqs (Human Anatomy & Physiology I and II, Microbiology, Nutrition). I know those are important pre-reqs, but I am hoping the fact that I already live in NY...

Hey all! I applied for the Fall 2018 as a non-accelerated student. I actually went to NYU for undergrad (psychology, almost 10 years ago). My grades by no means make me a shoo-in but I figure I just have to wait and see since I have not finished mo...
