1. C's in Pre Reqs? Am I doomed before I start?

   BrooklynJulie replied to lunacarellz's topic in New York

   Congrats on pursuing your dream. I would say that because your prerequs are part of your undergraduate degree it isn't as bad as if you took them on top of your degree and got a C. If you can get As and A-s in your sciences it will go a long way to...

   BrooklynJulie replied to dove01's topic in New York

   For those still waiting, I felt the same pain last go around. I got a "yes" decision close to 8 weeks after the notifications began. Also, we are all in a "cohort" and will take the same classes and have the same class schedule. They auto-registe...

   BrooklynJulie replied to dove01's topic in New York

   Hi realdream - classes are all over. Look for Union Square and Washington Square Park on a map and that is the campus footprint. But once the nursing school moves I think it is close to 30th and 1st ave. And there is really no dream commute. It is ...

   some more real estate thoughts: It may be a 15 minute ride on the Path train but you might be looking at a 10 plus minute walk from the Path to NYU and also a 10 or more minute walk to the Path from Hoboken or Jersey City. Plus the wait. So you easi...

   About the review process, I actually think (this is total theory) that when you email them your materials it is sort of easier for them just to review at that time since they have your file open. Or put back on the top of the stack in which case it ...

   Hi everyone - you can fax them a handwritten note or a screenshot. If you call them, you will likely just tell you to send to the main admissions email box. Try to get a name. Tell them why you think it is important. Sometimes when you call you g...

   Regarding stats, at the open house last Fall they said they admit about 35% of applicants. My advice to those still waiting is to send them any mid-semester grades you may have for courses you are taking. Maybe a screen shot or letter from your prp...

   BrooklynJulie replied to dove01's topic in New York

   Hi Everyone! I am starting the program this January as well and have lived in NY since 2000. As for real estate guidance, I would strongly push for BK or Queens. I lived in Manhattan for 7 years but love living in BK. And think of the commuting ...

   Hi Everyone - I am currently admitted into ABSN program finishing prerequs at NYU this semester and will be starting the 15-month ABSN portion in the Spring. I don't know exactly when but the Nursing school is actually moving to a brand new state of...

    BrooklynJulie replied to livelovefierce's topic in New York

    Gosh, that's a tough call. Have you spoken with any admissions counselors at the colleges you were not accepted to? They may have better advice. My personal advice would be to retake Chemistry and get an A or B. I know Chem can be really hard bu...

    Whether you are applying to a 1st degree program with prior credits, or a 2nd degree program with an undergraduate degree GPA plus prerequs, I think you need to do the following: Looking at all your transcripts, add up the combined total grade points...

    Hi Everyone - I was admitted this past round but need to finish two prerequs this Fall at NYU before starting the 15-month ABSN portion with the Spring 2014 Cohort. I am taking A&P and Micro in the Fall. Let me know if anyone else has those cl...

    BrooklynJulie replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in New York

    I got my acceptance email this morning at 8:55 AM. I could not be more excited and relieved! I won't start the 15-month program until the Spring as I have to finish up Prerequs this Fall at NYU. Anyone else admitted for the spring 2014 cohort? I wil...

    Welcome to the board! I just realized that the email address is the same one listed above for Kervin Pillot. Any one else going to come out from "Guestland"?

    @mgolikov55 - so sorry to hear this. They seem to be on a rejection bender lately. Did you get the email this morning?
