   Hi! I was just like you all, waiting months because they kept extending the deadline. But they do eventually call! My interview was in person and I was with 3 other people (one of which is also in the program). And yes, my application status would ch...

   They don't. I'm currently in the Downstate ABSN program and I emailed so many people asking about this but they just told me the handbook was no longer applicable (eyeroll). However, I took patho at BMCC the semester before I started Downstate and it...

   @Amy Vasquez Classes start on the 27th. There are so many things they ask of students to do before registering so yeah it’s very late to be put on the alt list, but you never know! Everything is online this semester though, so people may drop out la...

   @vanessacmichell I first got into another nursing school and they said hospitals need a drug test within 30 days of starting clinical so that is probably why they haven’t asked for a drug test yet. We’ll probably have to get one closer to the start d...

   It should be from a 718 number. They left a voicemail and I called back to schedule it. The only email they sent was the confirmation of date, time and place of the interview.

   Did anyone opt in to get the castle branch badge for $12? I didn’t realize we’d need another background check while in school... wondering if I should try to get it or if it’s a waste?

   Congrats on getting one step closer! I got an acceptance email a week after my interview.

   Episkey replied to moreteaplease's topic in School Programs

   During my interview they said there was one hybrid class. I think it’s mostly online but they do have to go in once or twice a month. So on most Tuesdays, their day would end at 4pm, and some it would would end at 7pm. Honestly I’d prefer the option...

   From the looks of it, they probably interview 8-16 people per week. When I interviewed last week, I think they said they filled about 1/4 to 1/2 of the spots already, but I could be misremembering.

    Does anyone know if there are bike racks/parking at SUNY Downstate?

    @RCCC when you go to order your uniform, a link will show up to order your name badge from LoneStar.

    Back in early Dec, they sent me an email to say my application was forwarded to the program to review. I believe there was a little line above the status checklist that said “Under Program Review” but of course now I can’t find it; I think they got ...

    @michelle.singh60 Thanks for your advice and taking the time out to answer questions. I am having a hard time deciding what to do if I get accepted as I have a child under 2, and am worried about being able to handle everything. Can you tell me what ...

    Episkey replied to moreteaplease's topic in School Programs

    @beanurse222 I wouldn’t worry about the “screening in process” status. It took a week for the checklist to be updated. Then it was about 2 months for my status to change from “Review by Office of Admissions” to “Under Program Review”, and then anothe...
