  1. BMCC - - Pre-Nursing Students.....

    elleNY replied to nycNurse2b's topic in New York Nursing

    Good luck with registration and getting things done. This is a DO IT YOURSELF school..you have to be VERY persistent. Not an easy task to get in to classes,

  2. Student Loan Debt?

    elleNY replied to marten's topic in General Nursing

    If I may add a few things to keep in mind... 1) Where would you be working after grad? Nursing in FLA or a low paying state would make loan debt unbearable, however states like NY/MASS/CA start grads...

    elleNY posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hi all, I am in the process of applying for an accelerated BSN program and I have the misfortune of not knowing any Nurses very "personally". Although I can bounce ideas off of friends/family, it...

    Thank you all for the responses! For the sake of my privacy, I am going to private message the essay to the interested parties (and anyone else), as some personal information in my essay might...

  6. How to Apply for NYU 15-Month Program

    elleNY replied to MEM718's topic in New York Nursing

    Congratz! But honestly..everyone KNOWS about the tuition before they apply so I don't see why so many people act surprised once they get accepted.. if people are not willing to pay, they shouldn't be...

    elleNY replied to sandritanyc's topic in New York Nursing

  8. 3.91 GPA, my A&P class is going to shatter it

    elleNY replied to BloopBloop's topic in New York Nursing

  9. BMCC - - Pre-Nursing Students.....

    elleNY replied to nycNurse2b's topic in New York Nursing

    I'm actually applying to NYU also, I'm just taking the pre-reqs at BMCC..My B.A. GPA isn't high enough for downstate what with the large applicant pool and major competition :-( Im worried about the...

  10. 3.91 GPA, my A&P class is going to shatter it

    elleNY replied to BloopBloop's topic in New York Nursing

    The physical therapy degree is now a doctoral level degree.. I believe that's four years of college and four year of post graduate doctoral work...I can't imagine that that's easier, but perhaps I'm...

  11. BMCC - - Pre-Nursing Students.....

    elleNY replied to nycNurse2b's topic in New York Nursing

  12. How to Apply for NYU 15-Month Program

  13. associates in nursing is pointless

    elleNY replied to kkia123's topic in General Nursing

    Kkia -- I think the best route depends on what kind of masters you want. For NP and the likes, there are many schools that accept associates rn with bachelors in other field so it might make the most...

    elleNY replied to kkia123's topic in General Nursing

    Not a nurse yet so I can't speak authoritatively on this issue, but I have spent hours researching and supposedly in New York (Manhattan anyway) there has been a move toward BSN-only in the private...

  15. Son wants to be a CRNA, but wants his ears guaged

    elleNY replied to topher-67's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with everyone that, unfortunately, he may be judged on his outer appearance and nonconformist (or perhaps for his peer group conformist) choices... But I think you shouldn't harp on the...

  16. Look in to your crystal ball: predictions for when the market recovers!

    elleNY posted a topic in New York Nursing

    Hi all, I hope this subject isn't too "tired", but I was wondering if anyone had any predictions about the state of nursing in New York for when the market recovers. Will there be a renewed...

  17. Look in to your crystal ball: predictions for when the market recovers!

    elleNY replied to elleNY's topic in New York Nursing

    Thanks to both of you for some great insight! Although these questions may seem redundant, for those of us currently outside the health care realm, this board and nurses like you provide us with a...

  18. Not a Nurse but an IT Geek

    elleNY replied to drama1628's topic in General Nursing

    UMD (University of Maryland, a good school!) has a MS in Nursing with a specialization in Nurse Informatics. This program requires a BSN in Nursing and RN..Thus, you would be advised to do an...

  19. Winter session

    elleNY posted a topic in New York Nursing

    elleNY replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

  23. Anyone else accepted to NYU?

    elleNY replied to jlan79's topic in New York Nursing

    elleNY replied to elleNY's topic in New York Nursing

    Thanks for the advice, although the commute from UWS Manhattan to Kingsborough might be a deal breaker! I will look in to it! Thanks again,

    elleNY posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students
