  1. Stony Brook BSN - Summer/Fall 2011 Applicants

    Six people didn't show up to orientation last year. We spent the first hour or two introducing ourselves, and the Professors marked who wasn't there. Once they had the list, someone immediately left the room to call alternates. So keep your chin up!
  2. Stony Brook BSN - Summer/Fall 2011 Applicants

    Last year, I called around and was told the deposit was due by April 1. I don't believe there's a hard and fast deadline, though.

    You should call the school of nursing directly to ask, but generally they do not accept any transfer courses. Congrats to everyone who got in! For those who have yet to hear, good luck!
  4. Stony Brook BSN - Summer/Fall 2011 Applicants

    Last summer, there were about eight different clinical rotation groups to chose from. Some had clinical the same day every week, and others had them some weekends and not others. Every group does clinicals at SBUH in the summer. If you're in a speci...

  6. Stony Brook BSN - Summer/Fall 2011 Applicants

    It's nowhere near that expensive. I'm out of state. Tuition is about $26,000 from start to finish, including health insurance. If you already have a degree, as you will if you are applying to the one year, you get limited government loans. Independe...

    1) The teachers are definitely loads more helpful when you get here. I remember before I started it was impossible to get information from anyone! But I think they may be using all the resources to help the students who are already in the program, so...
  8. Stony Brook BSN - Summer/Fall 2011 Applicants

    We had a 10 day vacation at the end of the summer session, and a three week vacation at the end of fall, followed by three weeks where we had classes only twice a week. From now until mid-April we're in school full time, four to five days a week, and...

    Good Luck everyone! I'm currently in the 1-year program, so if you have any questions about anything feel free to ask.
  10. Stony Brook U ABSN - Summer 2010 Applicants

    The student health form is separate from the nursing health form. For the student form the physical isn't required, just immunization records. If you call student health the nurses there are very friendly and helpful--they'll tell you what to do.

  14. Stony Brook accelerated BSN - Summer 2010 start

    From what I gather we're booked six days a week, something like 9-5 class schedule four or five days a week with an 8 to 12 hour clinical day. I'm not 100% sure on that, though. If you've already got a commute of an hour and a half, it might be kinda...
  15. Accelerated Nursing Program @ Stony Brook Question :)

    Orientation is June 28 and 29. The program officially starts June 30. The tuition deposit is due April 1. We have to have our admissions packet (health form, malpractice insurance, CPR card etc) mailed in two weeks before the program starts. And t...

    The deposit deadline is April 1st. I've heard stories of alternates being called up to the first day of the program, though.

    https://www.nso.com/quick-quote/page1.jsf Also, HPSO and NSO are the same org, I don't know why I got different quotes
  18. Stony Brook U ABSN - Summer 2010 Applicants

    haha ok scratch that. I thought malpractice insurance was gonna be an ordeal to sort out but its actually cheap and easy to get--$22.50 for NY residents with HPSO and $29 with NSO, and we can apply online.
  19. Stony Brook U ABSN - Summer 2010 Applicants

    So I did a little digging and found that the tuition deposit is due April 1, for anyone wondering. So whats the deal with the malpractice insurance? Is there a recommended plan or are we expected to find some for ourselves?

    Sorry to hear that, officeworker. Good luck with the two-year. Did anyone submit the scholarship letter? I mailed mine yesterday, hopefully it got there in time...
  24. Accelerated Nursing Program @ Stony Brook Question :)

    Did anyone apply for the scholarship? I sent my letter by express mail yesterday... I hope they got it :\
  25. Ha I'm in the same boat as you, pymschrs. Rochester doesn't have a waiting list, so I imagine they wait to fill the class before they send out rejections... bleh
