Sending you love and hugs. My situation wasn’t the same, but I can offer some insight I’m hoping. I live in NYC. At 21/22, I got into a nursing (RN) program and was over the moon because that was my long life dream. I’ve worked very hard for this acceptance. I had to put everything that I had into that school because it was private school and cost a lot! A family friend offered to help me and said that I could stay at their place for 3 years to finish school since I running out of funds for school and to support myself. I jumped to the opportunity. Oh boy, his kids (Around my age) severely bullied me that I couldn’t breathe and pushed me to a deep depression that cost me so much. They were pure evil and made it their mission to torture me every single day. Going into semester 2, I couldn’t finish because I was being bullied and Failed out of the program. I couldn’t leave the place because I didn’t money to pay for another place. I got out a year later after getting a job. Now at 27/28, I applied to another school On New Jersey and mention all my struggles in my letter. I got accepted (RN program). I have exactly a year left to graduate. I did get denied in other programs due to my previous failures. I’m so sorry that you are going through this. I can’t even imagine what this must be like. Please don’t give up on your dreams. There is a school out there that will understand because everyone has a journey. Sending you love and hugs.

Hello everyone, Now this is a story everyone heard. I don't to blame anyone, but myself. Last spring I started nursing school part time. Now I should have wait until I was in a better place with myself. I am 22.I am supporting myself completely, and my mother who is aboard. Last spring everything went down the drain for me, my mother got sick so i had to be sending more money and support myself, I got raped and truly that the first time i am admitting it (currently in therapy). I got so stressed and depressed that I didn't want to live anymore and was going crazy. I acted like nothing was going wrong. Now i had my share of struggle in NYC. With only that being said, I was doing well at school. I did well on the first exams but after that I couldn't keep my focus. The week of finals, I had to fly home cause my mom got worst. Upon coming back I was allowed to take them but on their terms which I had only 2 days to study for all 3, but we all know nursing is hard that wouldn't work out well. I took 2 of these exams. One i got a C and the other i failed and the other I just didn't take. My gpa went down to a 3.0. I wasn't dismissed from the program but i withdraw and changed my major. Nursing is my true passion and that is the only career i see myself in. After thinking hard all summer I decided to go back to finish my BS in science which i got one more year to go. My question here and concerns is will other nursing school accept me? I have my eye on NYU accelerated, Colombia accelerated program , Pace and many other private school. Please, please, please give me advice. People who had apply to those schools too, or went back to nursing I am not the smartest person , but i am driven, strong and can achieve anything. Please give some advice anyone.

Omg, I am so glad. Hi Chris, I am a pre nursing student who plan on transferring to NYU for nursing. What is the gpa that nyu wants to be in the program? Do they have an entrance test? How was the program? How long did it take you to find a job. It would help a lot! Thanks

This may! It would be, but I want to get more info. No one seems to know much or can help :/

I am from NYC. I have been looking into chamberlain for a while now. I am willing to go there, but I have questions. Can anyone please tell if they are also out of state student, and how was it going back to your state? Was it hard to find a job? Do other schools accept Chamberlain credits ? Is anyone from NYC that went there? Please help??!!
