I feel like I should leave a follow up comment with my experience, in the interest of full disclosure, related to this facility. The DON was replaced shortly before I started, not very long ago. I was hired as a New Grad RN to the subacute floor. ...

That sounds awful- when you are able to pm message me so you can be more candid. I'm happy to say -so far- my experience has been vastly different but I appreciate being able to go in eyes wide open.

Did they let you decide how much orientation you got? It appears that they are more "together" now but I appreciate your input and sharing your experience. What floor were you on?

I'm orienting on the meadows side currently- PM me if you don't mind! I'd happily share my experience thus far and I would love to hear more about yours! When you were hired was it still a Kindred facility?

Where did you find the 2 week free trial for PassPoint? EDIT: Just kidding, my googling paid off and I finally found the page!!! Good luck everyone!

You have 3 days per week in the PT program: clinical from 230-1030pm (various days), lecture from 4-9pm (Tuesday or Thursday) and a lab (Monday) which will eventually drop off- they split the class between a 4-6pm and a 6-8pm. They let us request whi...

My pleasure!

That, I have no idea about. I'm sure a wait list will eventually be formed, perhaps after the deposit deadline? I would not say it means anything definitively either way.

Quincy has historically extended deadlines even when enough applicants have responded, in order to garner more application fees- some may say...

I have a prior degree, so I'm only eligible for loans- but I've never had a problem in that department. I would suggest contacting financial aid and perhaps FAFSFA and MEFA way in advance so you can get the ball rolling.

The part time schedule is lecture one night, usually Tuesday, from 4pm-9. To start, there are 2 labs from either 4-6 or 6-8, you get to pick. Then, a few weeks in you start at clinical from 230-1030 and drop one lab. Hope that helps! FYI, spring seme...

Congrats!

Congrats!!

No problem! Let us know how it goes!

I don't know how many spots there are for the full time program, but I'm sure it is also competitive. The part time program is extremely competitive, so if you may want to consider not only applying to both cohorts but also to both campuses. In the p...

I've heard letters won't be sent out until the end of the month. Good luck!

After many years in law enforcement I've seen a few doozies: Precious, Princess, Sonny Bono... But the best is Kashmoney. Yep, with a "K."

The criteria for applicants at Quincy College recently changed so I think those that had to take the Teas are currently receiving their letters. I can say I am a current student -pre Teas- with a 3.7 gpa. Feel free to pm me if you like. Are you int...

Yes, 100%. I think the first group of applicants under the new criteria are going through the process now. Unfortunately I'm not sure when decisions will be made so I can't offer better info for the OP... Sorry, good luck on your applications though...

It's hard to say for Quincy, until recently admissions were based solely on the Accuplacer score.

Try to be flexible, apply to any program you think you can make work. You never know which program you'll get into (hopefully multiple!) and how your life may change in the time spent waiting to begin. I wish you all the best, good luck!
