thanks for the info. Some schools have different pre reqs. Adelphi requires organic chem, huh? I don't know about that one.

HI, Would you mind telling me what the pre-reqs were for Adelphi and how long the Accelerated program is? I can't get anyone to talk about this and its not on the website.

This is exactly what I am studying!

HI, I heard about NYU's acceptance rate being about 35%. Does anyone know what it is for Pace? Downstate?

Katie - I was so glad to read your post. I am considering applying for next summer. Btw- my name is also Katey. I was wondering how is was to get in. did you have to have a high College GPA or was more emphasis given to the pre-reqs in particular?

tab65- yes, their accelerated program is for someone who has a BAch already. but you know what? Since non-medical bachs usually don't have the pre-reqs it turns out to be the same thing as transferring in after two years of undergrad work -- if not l...

thanks for the info folks, NYU seems like the best choice for me except they are such a big program i don't just want to be a number. I feel like i'd have a better chance being accepted at CNR. I am definitely going to apply to both. I found out to...

I'm considering nursing as a second career. I graduated from college 7 years ago and my grades weren't that great. Do you guys have any tips or feedback about Pace, NYU or College of New Rochelle's second degree programs? Can you do the prerequisites...

I agree with Subee. They have tons of scholarships because they need numbers. I was reading that the average person at a private catholic college pays $2-4000 in tuition because the grants are so good. borrow the rest. the pay will be worth it. Besi...

hi, I heard Cornell has great opportunities for new grads.

HI, I graduated from Hunter a few years ago with a different degree, yet know quite a few people in the nursing program. Getting into the program itself from the General pool of Hunter people is quite difficult. They didn't really show any preferent...

they have an accelerated portion which is 18 months.

chaya , you may not need to finish up at Empire. you can probably transfer in somewhere if you have tons of credits already. check out Mounts St Vincent's program in midtown.

hi, I read your post on Dominican College. I would go for the ABSN. Can you tell me how the commute is? The faculty? And what about your job prospects?

REally??? I heard from Donna that they take people who have done their pre-reqs anywhere. This sucks. They are one of the top schools i'm looking at. Why can't i get a straight answer from any of these professionals?!

I am interested in this school also, for the BSN. I would love to have any feedback about the program.

I doubt they will hold the past against you like that. I have talked with admissions at NYU,Columbia and other top tier schools in my area and they really want people who can show initiative and passion now. That is why they have second degree prog...

if you become a nurse through a hospital program they may pay for the education and give you a job when you get out. Some hospitals are so hard up that they'll even give you a stipend. Check out hospital nursing websites, talk to someone in their Hum...

Wow! I can't believe how similar our situations are. I was a Soc major graduated in '98. GPA in the toilet. Now I'm looking into BSN programs in New York - sooooo expensive and competitive. I will do the pre-reqs before applying to show a better atti...

Abraham Lincoln failed at everything he ever tried to do. Failed as a business man, failed at a run for governor, failed at multiple runs for Congress. He is now remembered as one of, if not THE greatest president this nation has ever known because h...

does Columbia even have the BSN accelerated program anymore. From their website it seems as if you must join their joint degree program? Does anyone have any feedback on CNR (College of New Rochelle's Accelerated program?
