  1. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    I second that. I live in Manhattan and pay much less for rent. And Riles, you should try calling the financial aid office, they might be able to help you over the phone. Good
  2. Hey there! Do you guys know the website with info on the new grad program? Also, does anyone know which units they hire new grads for and possible starting salaries? I'm graduating in December and...
  3. I know what you're talking about, but as far as I know, I'm not affected by it. I wasn't a student at NYU when the college of nursing was it's own entitity, so I really have nothing to compare my...
  4. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    NYU's website lists different places to look for scholarships. FastWeb is one, I'm not really sure of others. I'm kind of lazy when it comes to that so I'm all about the student loans! :) Nope,...
  5. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    Yes there are. The college of nursing holds a job fair every december and hospitals from all over are there. You don't have to stay in NY when you're done, at
  6. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    Hey guys... My total for the spring semester: Tuition was $17,615. There were two separate college of nursing fees, one was $1,071 and the other was $192 and my student health insurance was $852....
  7. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    LOL, oh yeah my final... haha. Thank you! And you're so welcome. I very clearly remember being in your situation last year and how scary that was, so I'm more than willing to help if I can. Let me...
  8. As an outsider to your situation, it sounds like your leaning toward NYU... pretty much for all of the same reasons that I was last year. I really do feel like the adminitration and faculty care about...
  9. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    I've never used the service, but yes, it exists. It's offered through the department of public safety. This hasn't been an issue for me. I live in Manhattan and I've been lucky enough to get into...
  10. I'm not sure what my class size is. I'm going to guess it's around 150, but I don't really know. The 200 person lectures include second-degree and traditional students. You're going to get the kind...
  11. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    I took that number directly from my account summary, so it's accurate. That doesn't include books or transportation. Books have been about 500 a semester. An unlimited metro card, I think is about...
  12. Okay, so I know exactly how you're feeling. It sucks and it's not easy! The good thing is that they are both great schools so you really can't lose either way. I got my Georgetown acceptance and was...
  13. It's not competitive like someone will throw you under the subway to get ahead. It's competitive like everyone wants to do well. It's just like any other school you go to where you have those...
  14. Hey there! So, you should expect to be very, very, very busy for the next 15 months. In the fall you'll be taking classes every day, unless they've changed the schedule. You'll have clinical one...
  15. New York University Nursing program and HRSA Program

    Hi there. Are you interested in the accelerated second degree program? The prereqs for that are listed on the website. You need Anatomy and Physiology, Microbiology, Statistics, Nutrition,...
  16. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2009

    Hey there everyone! So I was applying for nursing school last year and I remember how overwhelming everything was and how helpful this forum was, so I wandered on back to see if I could help anyone...
  17. NYU Recommendation Letters

    I sent one letter of rec and it was from the doctor I was working for. She didn't fill out that form, she just wrote a
  18. Anyone accepted to Georgetown?

    I'm pretty sure that you have to actually go to the school to interview. The program is highly selective and I think they like to meet everyone. There's a group interview and individual
  19. Confused about how to proceed

    I think the only difference for you guys between ADN and BSN would really be money. It's cheaper to do an ADN program, but you'll make more money with a BSN. You have to decide if those extra...
  20. Anyone accepted to Georgetown?

    Hey there! So I ended up choosing to go to NYU because of all the reasons you've listed, pretty much. I'm from CA, and I couldn't commit to the three year scholarship at WHC. It was just too much...
  21. NYU Accelerated Nursing Program 2008

    I was in the same boat as you guys, and I emailed the dept and they told me that it would have to be in undergraduate housing. I did that for two years in my first undergrad and I can't imagine...
  22. NYU Accelerated Nursing Program 2008

    I put an ad on the offcampus housing website that I need a roommate. I've gotten a few responses, so I would suggest that to you. I figure that I'll learn about the city as I go along... Picking a...
  23. NYU Accelerated Nursing Program 2008

    Hey Duke (and banana)! I'm from CA too, so we're in the same boat! I've been away from CA for my first undergrad, so this whole moving across the country thing isn't quite as scary for me. I have to...
  24. NYU Accelerated Nursing Program 2008

    Yay!! Congrats Duke! And MsBridge! :) We'll all be in purple scrubs in no time! Anyone know how many they're accepting into the
  25. Can you train a MA that hasn't gone to school?

    I am working as a "medical assistant" but I'm not certified and I didn't go to school for it. I was fully trained on the job. I have a BS in biology, so that helped with learning the lab stuff, but...
