EMT, you sound awesome based on your stats. That's scary -- I expect a rejection letter coming my way soon. G'luck with your other schools and thanks for sharing your experience.

Hey ld109, i had my interview this past Tuesday as well. What time was yours? I wouldn't be too hard on myself. I'm sure EVERYONE was nervous and I'm sure the administrators understands that...especially since they were group interviews!

Hi Lulu, Unfortunately, there is a lot of competition everywhere for nursing so I would definitely try to bring up the GPA. The GPA isn't the only thing that counts, but its an important factor since it counts as 50% of your application. Also, cast...

I'm really sorry to hear that EMTLeen. Did you apply for other schools? Do you mind me asking what your stats were like?

i hope you hear soon! i hope i do too. i certainly hate having to wait until may to find out the news, but i dont think there is anything more i can do.

Hi EMTLeen1987, I applied as a transfer mid-Feb. i called yesterday and the student ambassador gave me the same answer I'm sure they give everyone else -- "transfer students can expect to hear beginning to mid May on a rolling basis". I told them th...

hi everyone, i was wondering if everyone that's still waiting for a decision are traditional transfer applicants or are there still accelerated prog applicants still waiting to find out? i applied before the priority date as a transfer student and I ...

Hi JLan, sorry to hear about your situation. Since you already have a BS, it probably makes more sense for you to go into an accelerated BSN program. you would end up spending more money and time in the long run. have you looked into stony brook? ...

Hi Elkpark & llg! thank you both for your replies. elkpark, do you mind me asking which nursing school you went to? I tried to PM you, but for some reason, i do not have the option to do so. thanks again for both your responses! :)

does it matter what school you go to for nursing? do hospitals look at your school and does that have any weight in getting a job?

Thank you for your reply, guiltysins! I appreciate you insight! Do you mind me asking what school you currently go to? I'm going to start applying to nursing programs soon and would love to learn about as many programs as possible. Thanks!

Hi Determination, I'm also interested in stony brook. I called a few weeks ago and spoke to someone. I asked them how many applications are received each year and how many are accepted. She told me that out of approx. 600 applicants, only 65-80 ar...

hi sandrita, i currently go to bmcc too. im not in the nursing program, but i do have some information on it. you can only take one nursing class each semester with the exception of nursing 415 which is nursing today and tomorrow. the nursing progr...

yep, you have to pay city tax if you live in any of the boroughs except for Long Island...not sure about staten island...

i am curious -- how many years did it actually take BMCC nursing program graduates to actually finish? is it hard to finish in 3yrs? is it possible to finish in 2.5yrs if all goes well? thanks!!

Thank you, PediatricNurse. I really appreciate all the input and information you have provided. It's a relief knowing that I shouldn't have a problem finding a job if I were to get my ADN first. That was basically the only discouragement. After talki...

hi everyone, i'm new to posting on this forum, but i have been lurking for quite some time now reading posts and trying to gain as much knowledge about nursing as possible. i've been thinking about going back to school to get a nursing degree. i am...

hi donster, the right side of the public profile advises that there is no contact information..

Hi Donster, i tried clicking on the member name to find other options, but i did not see any email options. The only options i have when clicking on the member name is: View public profile Find all posts Add ___ to your buddy list pls let me know if ...

RN Care & BunnyRN I see that you both have attending or is still attending BMCC. Do you mind e mailing me? I was accepted into BMCC to take my preclinicals for the spring semester and I would love some feedback from current/past students. I would...
