  1. Lichson starting 2009

    Hi LICHSON hopefuls! I have not been on this thread in a while. I see lots of new applicants have been posting a lot of questions about the school. I will be graduating from LICH in 2 months and I though I would give you all my perspective on the sch...
  2. Lichson starting 2009

    I wouldn't stress too much. Your pre-reqs are very solid and I know several people that did much worse on the TEAS and still got in with good pre-reqs. I know it's stressful waiting. I feel like that was just last week for me! I'm sure you will get a...
  3. Lichson starting 2009

    Hi LaCana, Glad to see you got accepted. I was there waiting at the health clearence as well. And was two hours late to work. Had I know they were going to go in alphabetical order, I wouldn't have arrived so early.
  4. Yes Diana sg I am trying to remain positive lke you said. I guess some days are harder than others. But you are right. I just need to be patient and have a little faith.
  5. Hey all, Has anyone besides LaCana heard anything either way? It feels like it's been a while. Especially if interviews are over as honeycutts was informed. I can't help but worry that they have done all the accepatence letters and are now waiting to...
  6. LaCana - That's great. Did it say you need to contact them? It does seem stange that it's so small. They must be sending all the other info later. LadyT618 - Thanks for the heads up. I have called a couple times but always got a recording. But after...
  7. Anyone have any new news? It feels like this is taking sooo long.

    Villa0912 I am pretty sure you are not allowed to send private messages until after 15 posts. You should get the icons honeycutts was describing soon after that.
  9. As will I Diana. Hopefully we will be seeing each other in person in a couple months!
  10. There is also the option of private loans. The interest is higher, but if this is something you really want and you can't wait another year, they might be your best bet. Just make sure you read all the fine print before signing anything. And do your ...
  11. Hey Diana, We spoke on another thread. I am still waiting as well. I think they had a committee meeting this week. I still am not clear if the will be calling or sending through the mail. I am starting to get jumpy every time my phone rings. Please m...
  12. Transcripts

    i think this is a much different situation than the others discussed here. if you are unable to get a transcript then you are clearly not being dishonest. that is a separate situation from deliberately not submitting transcripts that you are capable ...
  13. Repeating a course?

    I know this is true. However, while I have never repeated a course, I certainly know people who have. Smart capable people who I know would be great in their fields (not all of them nurses). But I do understand the competition aspect of it all. And o...
  14. Repeating a course?

    I am confused as to why some people on this thread feel it's ok for someone to retake a class with a D or F but not a higher grade. If the point of view is that life should not get in the way of you getting an A than I would think that this view woul...
  15. Repeating a course?

    "the best solution is to start over. i also had a similar experience as you. went to college straight out of highschool and had something like a 2.0 gpa with at least one f on my transcript before i gave up. when i decided to go for nursing, i went t...
  16. Beth Israel Nursing School NYC

    Honeycutts - I have had an interview. On Tues the 12th. As far as I know they are not even close to done with the whole process. I was told that they will be meeting to discuss the people that have been interviewed thus far, next Tues or Wed. After t...
  17. Anyone applied to Lichson ???

    She says she likes it, but that you have to take a lot of initiative as far as your learning experience. I get the impression that there isn't a lot of hand holding. Sha hasn't had any horror stories though. I doubt it's as good as beth israel, but I...
  18. Anyone applied to Lichson ???

    I have heard that rumor as well. I assume that our chances are pretty good at this point but you're right, you never know. I have heard about confusing letters going out from beth israel. There is a thread on here about the school and someone was tal...
  19. Anyone applied to Lichson ???

    No, just Lichson. I had planned to apply for a couple school in 2010 but then the recession hit and my job got it's hours cut back. It made me realize I needed to start figuring things out sooner rather than later. I figured if I applied to one place...

    Hey Honeycutts, Have you had an interview at LICHSON yet?
  21. GPA- ack...! 1.82 or 3.1?

    I think it also depends on the school. Some schools only look at the courses that they feel pertain to their program (mostly sciences). Others look at your whole GPA. Also it might work in your favor that you have gone back to school and shown a clea...
  22. Anyone applied to Lichson ???

    I believe that they have a committee meeting next Tuesday or Wednesday to discuss the people that have been interviewed so far. But I don't know when after that they give notice. Or if they do it through calls or snail mail. I am hoping to hear somet...
  23. Anyone applied to Lichson ???

    I had my interview last Tuesday the 12th. I think it went well. The professor was very nice and made me feel very comfortable (although I was still nervous of course). He asked about what drew me to nursing and what I though my strengths and weakness...
  24. Beth Israel Nursing School NYC

    Hello everyone, I wanted to write and say thank you for all your posts. I have been following this thread for a while now, even though I applied only to LICHSON. All your comments have made this whole process somewhat bearable. It helps knowing I am ...
