   Just took the NCLEX-PN this morning. I shut off at 85 question. I was freaking out thinking I must have failed. Came home and tried the trick and got the good pop up!!

2. Anyone attending Mildred Elley in N.Y.C?

   The first class graduated August 2009. That is why only four took the exam. A lot of students waited so they could study more or had to wait to save up the $300+ needed to take the exam. The nursing program is new.

   I guess you can sign up to get a laptop but financial aid told me to just request extra money for living expenses and buy it out right cause it's cheaper. I have started my clinicals. I only have one more mod to go, I'm done Dec 3!!! Clinicals are g...

   Welcome. :) I'm not sure about placing the new grads with jobs. They have a career office that will help you find a job. I'm not sure of the outcome because I have not talked with any of the new grads. One came and spoke with us. She works at one of ...

   Ok I guess the ATI test is our exit exam. They just told us it was a predictor for the NCLEX, so that's why I did not know what you meant. :) For my class which is graduating December 2010 there are now ten of us. We started with about 30 maybe more....

   Hmm not really sure what this "exit exam" you are talking about is. I do know that you take an ATI test before your graduate that predicts how well you do on the NCLEX. I go in Albany and I'm graduating in December. I have not heard about about any e...

   As far as I know, no you do not. We do take a class right before you graduate that helps you study for the Nclex and you register for it. They take the money for the test right out of your boards.

   I am not attending in NYC but I'm sure they do things the same in all of the schools. Orientation-They will tell you any missing paperwork you have, you will get your schedule, meet you department chair and get a tour of the school. Books-Someone fro...

    I am a student at the Albany campus. They just opened in NYC so I don't think you will find very many students here. Have you called and talked them? They are great about giving information when you want to enroll.

    I have seen this comment on 2 different threads about Mildred Elley. Yes they are Accredited. The one in NYC is a satellite school operating from the Albany campus.

    I think NYC is about three and a half hours away from Albany. I'm not sure of the price but $30000 sounds a little high. If your doing LPN it's only 16 months so I can't see it costing that much. I was able to get financial aid and federal loans. I'm...

    I attend the Albany campus on the weekends. :) There are a couple students that travel from NYC. I think they have somewhere they stay on the weekends we have school.

    Your Welcome! The test is very easy. Not like tests you would take at other schools. I don't know much about the new campus in NYC. I do know that they can't guarantee that you will be able to finish everything there. They say you may have to travel ...

    I currently attend Mildred Elley. There are good things and bad things about the program. A few things I like: -I can attend on the weekend and still work during the week -They split up the semesters into two "mods" so the course load is lessened. -L...
