To those looking for housing, I'm from the Philly area (moved away 5 years ago, but still visit) and can recommend anywhere in Center City, Graduate Hospital (though still a little sketchy), Queen...
Wow! Thank you for sharing! What an amazing story and how inspirational. You just made my day, and after a week of rethinking nursing, you've convinced me that I've made the right decision in leaving...
tulips, i will have to leave nyc to go to nursing school (the schools here are too expensive for absn programs), but i would love to move back to nyc to work. is it typical to earn $100k as a new...
Hello, Congratulations to those who've been accepted! I'm planning on applying later this summer and would love to know what grades (previous bachelors and pre-req GPAs) you have, what degrees you...
Hi, I'm considering applying to NJCU's accelerated nursing program, but have some concerns about the safety of the area and the lack of doctorally prepared faculty. I'm mostly interested in attending...
I have to get my butt to work tomorrow in NYC, so I assume they might have to as well. They could also work from home. They need to deliver those notices on Thursday!!! Can't wait any
Thank you so much, caffreak! And good luck to you! Dingras, thanks for the info on the podcast. I will try to squeeze that in among my courses and work! Just a few more days to go! But at least the...
I almost fell out of my seat when I saw Jose's email last night. The subject line was a bit deceptive, since I thought it was my decision. At least my anxiety has subsided and I actually slept well...
Dizzy, I've had the same with people telling me not to pursue nursing. My uncle (a radiologist) told me not to do it! His wife is a nurse and told me not to do it, either. But my mom's a nurse...
I read the same negative posts. Even a woman in my office encouraged me not to apply, since her daughter hated the ETP program. When I told her last week that I had applied, she asked why after what...
MONDAY?!?!?!?! OMG!!! I really don't want to have to wait that long, but it is what it is. I just want to get this nervous feeling out of my stomach and figure out my next steps like, I think, Beth. I...
Thanks, dingras! I haven't lived at home in years, so I should be fine. And my income is pretty low, so that's good. Just counting down until tomorrow, which is when I think we'll find out. I'd be...
Thanks, dingras! I will work on it this weekend. This week is too hectic with schoolwork, work and checking email for the verdict! :) Nice to know Columbia's so generous, though. That's great news!...
I panicked there for a second, since I haven't done my FAFSA yet. I read the same thing about needing to complete it by Feb 15, so I figured I'd wait until I heard about my
Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one going a little nuts and checking email constantly and dreaming about it! I literally have dreams where I think, "I forgot to check my email! I need to check it now,...
I've considered Stony Brook and Downstate, but they have very few spots and many, many applicants. They also give preference to New Yorkers, minorities, and those with actual clinical experience, so...
Thanks for the suggestion on the Jersey school, Dingras, but I refuse to stay any longer in NJ - I despise it here! I work in Manhattan and spend my free time there and sleep in NJ. It's just much...
