    talldollNYC posted a topic in General Students

    Hello! I'm a second-degree student, finishing up the pre-req's and looking into schools. I am SHOCKED at the wide range of tuitions. Columbia is over 30k a year, SUNY-Stoneybrook is only 8K a year....

    talldollNYC replied to Near Done Nurse's topic in New York Nursing

    I moved to New York five years ago - from Minnesota. It was a bit of a culture shock for me, but I love it. Have you lived in a big city before? If so, you'll have no problem. The cost of living is...

  9. Stop the Madness!!

    talldollNYC replied to huggietoes's topic in General Nursing

    That sounds rough. I'm sorry. It always sucks to be in the middle of immature antagonistic behavior. Don't know if it makes you feel any better, but situations like that occur everywhere, not just in...

  13. Columbia vs. SUNY Stoneybrook - Does name matter?

    talldollNYC replied to talldollNYC's topic in General Students

    Thank you PediRN and 2banurse for the good advice. It does seems like the best idea to do the 12month BSN program first - then figure out when and where to look at graduate programs. I've been...
