I am a similar boat and am wondering what to do. I have no desire to own a home, only rent which costs me $1400/mo. in a place that doesn't allow subletting. I was thinking of becoming itinerant, and taking the stipend/per diem as taxable all the ti...
I can't help you with the Kaplan book, but I took the NCLEX-RN on Thursday and the instructions said to round to one place after the decimal point (i.e. 2.2), but save all rounding until the end (in case you have a multi-step math problem) unless the...
Hi everyone, congrats to those of you who were accepted! YAY :ancong!: Kris EMT, I'm sorry you were waitlisted. You do still have a chance, though. There was one, maybe two, people in my class that were on the waitlist and someone didn't accept s...
No, nobody got kicked out. However, we started with 27 and lost 2. One went to pharmacy school (her dream, she only started at NJCU until she got accepted), the other left because he preferred to take a more holistic approach.
Hi, Congrats to those of you that were accepted! For those that weren't, I try to look at things like that as "meant to be" and something better will come... (((hugs))) Our professor told us that last year for NJCU the 1st time passing rate was 90....
How were the days? Do you mean the schedule? You're applying for the Jersey City campus, correct? I was in Wall, I know the clinical sites will be different, but I think the schedule will be pretty similar: We were in class most of the day on le...
I didn't work, but a bunch of people in the program did keep part-time jobs. You have to be really dedicated and study hard, so judge for yourself if you can handle it! I didn't have a problem with any of the professors...they were all great! I thin...
I just graduated from NJCU's accelerated BSN program (Wall campus). It's not the best, but it is the quickest/cheapest in NJ. When I was applying I was torn btwn NJCU and UMDNJ. Ultimately, I was told that UMDNJ's accreditation has been put on pro...
The trip is about a 10 minute drive. Not too bad, but it could get expensive if you have to take a taxi everyday... I wouldn't recommend it though, because there are some days were class will start or end early or late depending on the instructor's...
Hi LovingCare84, Congrats on getting accepted!!! We have a few students that are from north Jersey and the commute is tough for them, but they make it work.... Our schedule (Wall Cohort) the first semester generally went from 8am or 9am-4pm Monday – ...
"Redo"...sounds odd....The score on the HESI is not as important as who the person is overall. Even if you don't get a "perfect score" on the HESI, if you will be an asset to the program, you get accepted. I asked the program coordinator what they ...
Sorry I found this board late. Is anyone still here? I am in the cohort at the Wall campus. We just took our exit HESI exam (we are finishing in May). I agree with those current students that have already posted about the program being tough, but...
I am currently in the program down at the Wall campus. I suggest anyone interested in the program should go to the open house and ask lots of questions!!!
Hi KTV, I'm also in the program. We won't finish until May. How long has it been since you completed your pre-reqs (Chem, A&P, Micro, etc)? If you just completed them, the test won't be that hard. If it has been a while, or if you just want ...
The HESI has locations proctoring the test almost every day of the week. But the first step is to apply to the program, then they will give you the information you need to take the test. It definitely helps to have finished the pre-reqs before taki...
I believe it's 08-09 because the 09 school year begins July 1st for tax purposes. I'm not 100% sure though. I'm going to get my taxes done on Monday, and I'll ask her (if you can wait that long LOL)
Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know the feeling. I just got my acceptance letter for NJCU's ABSN program today. I just about tackled the mailman, I have been waiting for it all last week. What a happy feeling
