  1. Pre Reqs - How to fit them all in?

    jlan79 replied to SarahNYC's topic in New York Nursing

    I'm taking 14 credits out of 20 (I have psych and stats from my prior degree). When I was in college before I used to take 20 credit semesters and it wasn't that bad. I don't remember being...

  2. NYU 15 Month Accelerated BSN - Please share your experience

    jlan79 replied to jistravel's topic in New York Nursing

    Hi, I am starting at NYU in September, doing pre-reqs and then starting the 15-month program in the Spring. Does anyone have any experience with work-study? How easy is it to get a job? I am planning...

  3. Question about CUNY schools

    jlan79 replied to pigmachine's topic in New York Nursing

    I personally never require any handholding. But if I need a critical piece of information, I expect to receive it from a school, since there's no other way for me to know. I also appreciate efficiency...

    jlan79 replied to duzapolska's topic in New York Nursing

    How do you feel about private schools? Yes, they are more expensive, but easier to get into because they tend to have larger classes. I got into NYU, Adelphi, LIU and Molloy with 3.5

  5. Question about CUNY schools

    jlan79 replied to pigmachine's topic in New York Nursing

    CocoBella, I totally agree with you. I initially planned to attend Hunter for my prerequisites and then apply to Hunter nursing and other programs in private schools. After I got my acceptance to...

  7. Pre Reqs - How to fit them all in?

    jlan79 replied to SarahNYC's topic in New York Nursing

    Yes, I'm doing the Accelerated BSN. There is a note on their website that says that a 2-yr program for people who don't have their prerequisites is also available. What they mean is that you spend 1...

  8. Pre Reqs - How to fit them all in?

    jlan79 replied to SarahNYC's topic in New York Nursing

    If you apply to NYU, you can do it without prerequisites. They fit all the prerequisites into one semester and then you start the accelerated part right after. This is what I'm doing because I found...

  9. Anyone else accepted to NYU?

    jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

    Yes, they say on their website that you can apply without prerequisites. You will take all your prerequisites in one semester and then proceed to the accelerated program. I applied as a transfer...

  10. NYU vs. Hunter

  11. NYU vs. Hunter

    jlan79 replied to lara177's topic in New York Nursing

    Lara, Can you please tell me about the Hunter accelerated program? I'm starting my prereqs at Hunter in the Fall. I agree about the administration. So far, I haven't even started yet, but everything...

  13. NYU, SUNY Downstate

    jlan79 replied to kdrose01's topic in New York Nursing

    Wow, thanks for the info. I had no idea it was such a big deal. I work as a dental assaistant now. Not exactly that relevant, but I do work directly with patients. Not sure how much time I will have...

  14. NYU, SUNY Downstate

    jlan79 replied to kdrose01's topic in New York Nursing

    I know this wasn't addressed to me, but I have the same plan as you do. I am attending Hunter College for my prerequisites and then will apply to the Hunter Nursing in the spring, along with NYU,...

  15. Do BSN/MSN combined accelerated programs allow you to postpone the MSN part?

    jlan79 posted a topic in New York Nursing

    I was wondering if schools like Columbia and Pace, that have the accelerated combined degree programs, allow you to get your BSN and then work for a bit before moving on to MSN portion? I would like...

  16. Just Got accepted for Pre-Nursing at Hunter. I NEED HELP!!!

    jlan79 replied to JoeNurseRN's topic in New York Nursing

    I seriously considered Columbia for that reason, but I went to their open house and it seems like the school will be so demanding I would literally not see my kids. And it will take me longer to get...

  17. Just Got accepted for Pre-Nursing at Hunter. I NEED HELP!!!

    jlan79 replied to JoeNurseRN's topic in New York Nursing

    I'm taking Chem at Nassau Community College. I work during the week and they had a weekend course. Which classes did they tell you to take in the summer? I'm only taking one because everything else I...

  18. Just Got accepted for Pre-Nursing at Hunter. I NEED HELP!!!

    jlan79 replied to JoeNurseRN's topic in New York Nursing

    Wow, I'm in the exact same situation! I have a degree already, no science prereqs and it's been a while since I was in school. I looked at the courses I need and when they are offered and in order for...

  19. Hunter is getting on my last nerve!

    jlan79 posted a topic in New York Nursing

    So I got accepted to Hunter, but to the general school (not nursing yet) since you have to be enrolled before applying to nursing and I need a few science prereqs done. Turns out they don't evaluate...

  20. Hunter is getting on my last nerve!

    jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

    What???? There's a BIO prerequisite? I had no idea! It's not in the course description for A&P. The person I spoke with didn't say there was a BIO prerequisite

  22. Do BSN/MSN combined accelerated programs allow you to postpone the MSN part?

    jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

    Thanks. Can't go to Stony Brook (too far) and I am planning to apply to SUNY Downstate, but probably won't get in. I will have a few prereqs in the process when I apply and I was told I want to have...

  23. Do BSN/MSN combined accelerated programs allow you to postpone the MSN part?

    jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

    Thanks for the heads up. I heard something along these lines.... I will look at my situation in 2 years and see if I can afford to go to MSN. I wanted to work for a bit because I have a family and...

  24. Do BSN/MSN combined accelerated programs allow you to postpone the MSN part?

    jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

    The regular BSN is too long for me. Will take 2 years. Accelerated is what I want, but I think only NYU offers accelerated BSN without the MSN component. So that was my question. If I apply to NYU,...

  25. Do BSN/MSN combined accelerated programs allow you to postpone the MSN part?

    jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

    Well, there are few accelerated programs in NYC that only get you to BSN. I think NYU does, but Columbia, PACE, Suny Downstate all have accelerated dual degree programs. I would go to NYU, but I want...
