I was also accepted; however, I’ve decided to withdraw my application. I’ve committed to another program that I think is a better fit for me. Good luck to everyone! ?

Do you have anyone from your current workplace to write you a letter of recommendation? I am also switching careers; I work at a marketing agency right now. I had my supervisor write me one. I also had my former employer and former professor write me letters. None of them were medical or healthcare related. Definitely reach out to anyone who is a good fit. Grades seem to be the most important determining factor though so keep that in mind.

My overall GPA is 3.8. I got all A's in my prereqs. I applied without having Microbiology completed; I just finished the class a few days ago. I have no medical experience and previously went to school for graphic design. I was very shocked I got an interview to be honest, LOL. Seems they really take grades into account.

Nothing yet. I don’t understand why they take so long to get back to us. I’m 90% sure I’m going to another school

Yup!! I just realized from the looks of the doc and how the curriculum is structured.. I may have problems remaining a full time student. Hmmm. I hate to jeopardize my financial aid

Gah! I dread history classes. I took a class at Suffolk called Modern American History too. I wonder why it didn't transfer

Thanks! I got an 89 on my TEAS To those who were originally accepted, was there an orientation I missed? I just confirmed my seat so I'm not sure what the next steps are. All I did so far was pay for the bg check through castle branch.

What a rollercoaster of emotions. I just received an email from the nursing department that a seat opened up in the day program!

Has anyone scheduled advisement/registered for classes? I paid my tuition deposit right before the deadline because I was waiting to hear back from another school.

I just received a rejection email (finally) to my personal and ncc email. I'm almost positive it's because I don't have all my prereqs completed. Good luck to everyone starting the Spring!! ?

I’m so sorry. That’s a good point. I am also thinking they are looking to see that you completed all your prerequisites. I got an 89 on my TEAS but didn’t complete all my prerequisites. When I get home I’m going to check to see if I got the same email

I hope this isn’t the case! Admissions told me to wait until after the holidays to hear back. So odd... if this is true, I wonder where I fell short in my application

My friend that graduated from Nassau’s nursing program told me even if you have some of the coursework completed, it will still take you two years to get your ASN from them. Then another 2 from SUNY empire (but he told me to look for other options)

Can you or anyone clarify how the points are calculated?

I just called admissions. The woman said my application is still pending.. weird! But I guess that’s better than a no. She said to expect a response after the holidays.

Somebody in this thread mentioned they send out more than one wave of interviews. I'm not 100% sure though

Congrats to everyone! I'm still hoping to receive one.

Thank you for your insight! I worried a little about commuting to and from because of cost and time, but I recall the interviewer saying that they are conducting classes online. Is that the case for you guys who are currently in the program too?

Decisions so should be made by Christmas time. I haven’t heard anything since I interviewed but I’m pretty sure there’s a second interview

Same here!! I also applied to SBU and won't hear back until Christmastime. I wish everyone would just announce their decisions at the same time. Agh

Jeeze how did I not know this thread was a thing?! I've been so eager to hear back!

To my knowledge, yes. Today and last Monday were the only days offered to students for an interview

Does anyone know how the classes are being conducted this upcoming Spring? I assume online but just want to make sure.

Good luck to everyone interviewing today!

Doing just that is enough to prepare for the interview. That's what I did. The interviewers were so sweet and easy to talk to. Be prepared to talk about yourself, strengths, challenges you overcame, and you'll be set! I just finished the math and writing assessment. It was exactly everything that was in the email from Pamela. Decimals, fractions, percentages
