  1. new grad resumes with no healthcare experience

    Bonstemps replied to NESummers's topic in General Students

    You've had great answers - I wanted to pop in and suggest also creating a LinkedIn. This platform allows you to prove yourself through writing, networking, etc., where a resume doesn't usually allow...

  2. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey there and welcome! The deadline is November 1 for all applicants. I really think this all depends on you and where you are right now in life; we don't have much background but here is what I...

  3. Relocating..? So scary!

    Bonstemps replied to gennn19's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I am similar to some in that I adore the challenge and excitement of moving; I am from NJ but have lived in France, Japan, MA, VT, FL, and LA. Each move has opened up the doors to a greater...

  4. Why do teachers

    Bonstemps replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    Of course - and I am sorry if anything came off as insensitive - but wow, that sounds exceedingly isolating as a professional. It is wild that there is one nurse for all those students and the support...

  5. Why do teachers

    Bonstemps replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I'm sorry if I made it seem like I think you don't love your jobs. I didn't get that sense at all. And I didn't mean anything harsh by it. I am a practitioner thats been in the medical field in...

  6. Why do teachers

    Bonstemps replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I understand. It's the same as how EDs get people with stubbed toes and how the ambulance is sometimes a taxi. My point was maybe it's part of our field? I don't want your time burdened by silliness...

  7. Why do teachers

    Bonstemps replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I imagine some, if not many, people are outside the boundaries of their comfort zones when it comes to an ill, bleeding, or malaised person. As a paramedic, in almost every setting I've worked people...

  8. Community College or MGH?

    Bonstemps replied to Actioncatt's topic in General Students

    This is just my two cents, as someone who has debt from pursuing a degree. It all depends on how you, an individual, measures risk. For me, having my secondary degree (MS) was worth the debt as it...

  9. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Is this your first time applying for FAFSA? Typically, if you are awarded the full amount, there is enough (though, that is debatable) for housing/rent, books and a little extra for food. I recommend,...

  10. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Many of us have had very inconsistent results with NYU via phone. I was told by one person that nothing had been received - nothing at all - and then I talked to another person who received all my TS...

  11. Rant. Questions are killing me!

    Bonstemps replied to broughden's topic in General Students

    I think in some instances, yes, cultural competency is the initial purpose and clear objective of the question, however, the questions often utilize scenarios that are deeply stereotypical or...

  12. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    I wouldn't worry too much; if we have learned anything, it is that NYU's system may be a little bit inconsistent. I haven't received it and though I am surely confused, I am not worried. I would...

  13. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    SO interesting you also got the account set up e-mail; I didn't get that yet. I wonder how NYU's system works

  14. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    I am not sure if they will look at the CA recommendations; when I called in August, they stressed sending the recs and transcripts directly to NYU. The information is on this page: Second Bachelor’s...

  15. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    All - I received an e-mail entitled 'Your NYU Application Acknowledgement' This is what it says: Thank you for submitting your application to NYU! Soon we will send you your login information with...

  16. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    As I understood, LORs and Transcripts should be sent directly to NYU; this is what the website

  17. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Congratulations! I look forward to hearing about your future success :) And geez - thats not quite fair is it; it costs money to send to CA. Well, good on you for checking

  18. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Is it a nursing Pathophys course and 3 credits? I know people in other programs who were allowed to transfer pathophys - not 100% on NYU. I imagine they will ask for the course description and your...

  19. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    There is no official word, and it seems to depend a bit on the way the month of October goes , and whether there are any extreme weather issues / disasters (in 2016 the snowstorms in Boston caused...

  20. Denied from nursing school...

    Bonstemps replied to callmeachilles1's topic in General Students

    You've gotten many good answers and plenty of advice, so I don't want to be repetitive. However, the best ting you all can do is understand this is not the end of the world. She, if committed, should...

  21. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey there - I couldn't find anything about ABSN; I am not sure they disseminate that information to the public, not for specific programs, at least. I did find this (the link says NYU, but its Rory...

  22. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey there - I think as far as we can all tell, the only confirmation you get is from the CommonApp; I have received no correspondence from NYU re: the status or even receipt of my application I am...

  23. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    I had the same thing! One person told me nothing was in and then they followed up via e-mail to let me know everything was in. I'm sure they're experiencing hiccups with the new app

  24. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Yes, unfortunately NYU does not update tracking beyond Common App unless you call in and ask re: your materials. They will assign an NYU ID in the future and you will get your decision via that login...

  25. NYU ABSN Spring 2019

    Bonstemps replied to NYUABSN's topic in School, College Programs

    You enter the GPA as it appears on your transcripts. They ask for this so they can review GPAs without transcripts (sometimes they do't arrive "on time") - they will, however, eventually want to...
