  1. Transferring ABSNs?

    Bonstemps posted a topic in General Students

    Hey ya'll; don't know if I'm in the right place but I'm hoping maybe some of ya'll have thoughts on the matter. Is it possible to transfer out of a 15-Month ABSN into another ABSN program? I don't...

  2. Transferring ABSNs?

    Bonstemps replied to Bonstemps's topic in General Students

    Hey all - still loathe the program BUT I am a semester away from finishing. I did look into many avenues and not a single was possible or practical. Best of luck to all who are in a similar

  3. NYU ABSN Spring 2020

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

    Ah ok. That’s a bummer! I imagine, like many things at NYU (dosage calc., return demonstrations, etc.,) its all a massive formality that no one

    I’m in the program and have NO idea what you’re talking about. Where did you see

  5. NYU ABSN Spring 2020

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

    As I recall, it is student only. Parents came to admitted students night but I don't remember a parent at

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

    Hey - I'm in my last semester and I can at least give housing advice. Everyone is spread out. A lot of people are in Brooklyn because it is I cheaper than Manhattan. Some students chose to dorm,...

  7. Transferring ABSNs?

    Bonstemps replied to Bonstemps's topic in General Students

    I think for me it's the non-stop nature of it all; the never ending noise, the never ending rush and hustle. I see at least two horrible, mean interactions daily. I'm not used to the level of...

  8. Transferring ABSNs?

    Bonstemps replied to Bonstemps's topic in General Students

    Thank you for your thoughts and time. Only one semester in / completed. I'm doing well academically and don't find it overtly difficult, but I feel as though I can't handle the city. It's sad and...

    Hey there! I would be happy to share my thoughts; I do want to acknowledge these are my opinions only and don't necessarily reflect the program or the thoughts of my colleagues. The Good: the people:...

    Agreed with this person! The friend group I have is aged 22-32; people definitely get a long and there are all types of folks in the

    Bonstemps replied to RNhopeful93's topic in School, College Programs

    I think that's the right link! You'll know it when it comes close. Yeah, there's stuff that's fabulous - access to SIM lab/tech, placements, majority of professors, friends, the name of NYU, being a...

  13. New York University (NYU) ABSN fall 2019

    Bonstemps replied to RNhopeful93's topic in School, College Programs

    They will send you an e-mail for Albert and there will be an area where you can review what you've submitted and all that! That's where the admission decision will be! The program is good! There's...

  14. New York University (NYU) ABSN fall 2019

    Bonstemps replied to RNhopeful93's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey! Honestly, its really difficult to estimate when you will hear back - we had a massive range in our cohort; I heard back three months after submission during the first round of acceptances. I'd...

    Bonstemps replied to RNhopeful93's topic in School, College Programs

    There's a chance, sure. It would be up to them re: admissions if there was a positive. It's not a good first impression,

    I think it's only a problem for Mt. Sinai. I know someone who got tested this

    Bonstemps replied to RNhopeful93's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey, I'm in the program and they test for everything including marijuana. Stop now. It can effect your clinical placement and admissions. We were all gutted by the drug testing. Also, the health check...

  18. $750 CA RN License??? No way!

    Bonstemps replied to Kdm112990's topic in General Nursing

    You actually raise a point that I would like to see researched. What DOES the fee break down into? is it time/hours? Is it just more

  19. $750 CA RN License??? No way!

    Bonstemps replied to Kdm112990's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know many who can afford this. It is honestly pretty racist, xenophobic AND classist to create systems with steep entry fees. I'm not saying that is exactly what is happening, but systems like...

    Bonstemps replied to RNhopeful93's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey! So, expect a wait. I applied August 3 and heard back October 30. Some didn't hear back until January. They are VERY slow, and that's been consistent for several

  21. Trigger Warning!

    Bonstemps replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    I don't, that's true. But ya'll love to talk about snowflakes all the time and seem to me like kind of hateful towards those who may have additional needs. Its consistent here and a bit old. Its...

  22. Trigger Warning!

    Bonstemps replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with this. Its overused and people now associate it with something "weak" and

  23. Trigger Warning!

    Bonstemps replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    Spoken like a bunch of folks who don't really seem to understand trauma. I understand your being upset and mystified, but when it does no harm to say a single sentence, why complain about it? It's...

  24. New York University (NYU) ABSN fall 2019

    Bonstemps replied to RNhopeful93's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey there! They don't supply the public with specific acceptance rates for the ABSN program, but during an admitted students night they estimated around 60-65%. Apparently this year was very...
