    I totally agree with this post! It’s not as bad as it seems, you just gotta do it.

    Hey! Congrats on the acceptance! I am a current student of the program at Pleasantville. In my personal opinion, the nursing program you go to does not really matter, as long as you come out with your BSN and pass the NCLEX. In the end, job...

    Hey! My undergrad GPA was about a 3.2 My pre-req GPA was probably around a 3.7 or 3.8. I got an A in every pre-req course except microbio (got a B+ instead). Sorry, I hope that doesn’t sound like I’m trying to show off, but I wanted to let you know. ...

    Hey! Good luck with your applications! I haven’t started yet, I’m part of the Spring 2020 cohort that’s actually about to have their first day in about a week and a half! So I can’t speak from experience exactly, but I can tell you some of the reason...

    Yeah I’m leaving that part blank for now since we don’t know our placements yet. I’m assuming we only fill those parts out if we’re going to be at that hospital. You could try asking the school as well to be sure!

    It was very subtly stated in one of the first emails we got, but it makes sense that the first semester is the most expensive because we have to buy the most supplies at this point - all of which are probably going to be used throughout the program s...

    You have to download and print the standard immunization form and on that your doctor can fill out the info about all of the required immunizations. Then you also have to upload all lab work to each immunization requirement since we have to do titers...

    Yeah! It says so in the Health Clearance Procedure document that they sent out and on the CastleBranch To-Do List (once you make an account). You have to show proof of certification.
  9. Pace University ABSN Spring 2020

    I'm not sure exactly how it works so I can't speak on that. I don't know if you've been admitted and are enrolled, but we'll probably find out more at orientation and our advising appointment. But yeah, I remember at the interview the faculty did emp...

    Yeah I just dropped the money for the background check/drug test and the lab kit ? I also gotta pay for a CPR class because I'm not certified (as well as the scrubs and books we need) so my bank account is about to be real dry! I believe in the first...

    I know the previous post stated that Pace is currently in the middle of transferring systems, but I still gotta ask: is anybody else having trouble logging into the MyPacePortal account (the account that you have to activate after finding your userna...

    I got the same email as well. I haven’t tried yet, though. Maybe we have to wait until everybody enrolls and they have the final, full class roster all set up ? It might be a little hectic right now because people are still deciding, on the waitlist,...
  13. Pace University ABSN Spring 2020

    I know you weren't addressing me, but if it makes you feel better I literally uttered the words "I don't know... yeah" at the end of one of my responses when I was standing in front of everyone. I never wanted to shoot my own foot more than in the mo...
  14. Pace University ABSN Spring 2020

    I interviewed 9/24 and got the same vibe from them. Maybe they're just tired of hearing the majority of applicants talk about their medical experience and maybe they want people to try and say something different for once? That would be my guess. Eit...
  15. Pace University ABSN Spring 2020

    I talked about something that wasn’t on my application at all, but I connected it to how it would help me in my career as a nurse (I talked about a hobby I’ve always enjoyed). The admissions people there stressed that it should be something unique ab...
