  1. Lehman or Hunter College for employment in NYC

    Hunter's accelerated program is much more competitive than the generic. So that would seem even less likely as an option. You will be just fine going to Lehman. Clinical placements in Manhattan CAN help create job connections but I know very few peop...
  2. HUNTER Accelerated Fall 2018

    You will have no options or choice in your clinical placements. Locations for my class included the VA, Bellevue, Memorial Sloan Kettering, NewYork-Pres-Cornell, Metropolitan, Lenox Hill etc etc. Clinicals are getting more and more challenging for ...

    "When your NursingCas application is totally complete.........."
  5. HUNTER Accelerated Fall 2018

    I just graduated from the accelerated program. When your NursingCas application is totally complete, you will be able to see it and download a pdf copy. They do ALL kinds of GPAs, different years of school, different subject areas etc, and then one O...
  6. HUNTER Accelerated Fall 2018

    You don't need to be a matriculated student at Hunter to apply. That always confuses people. You are allowed to have TWO prereqs still being completed when you apply. You have a very strong application, both NLN score and GPA. I would expect that you...
  7. I don't know what the average NLN scores are (nobody really spoke about that). But I know that Maria Mendoza, the pre-nursing academic advisor, says that a score in the 150s is a great target. Hunter uses NursingCAS for applications and they calcula...
  8. If you can get into Hunter, go to Hunter. There is absolutely no reason to take on all of the unnecessary debt of another school like NYU. Hunter has an excellent reputation and extensive alumni in NYC hospital nursing management. The accelerated cla...

  10. NLN RN Pre Entrance Hunter College

    Thank you! I heard through the same email that I used on my NursingCAS application, which is NOT my Hunter email. It's the same email that I received the "thank you for applying to the program" email from Hunter when I submitted via NursingCAS.

    I have no doubt you will hear today or tomorrow!!

    I'm getting this directly from Maria Mendoza at the School of Nursing: "The School of Nursing will send admission decisions in late May." This was yesterday, May 18.
  14. NLN RN Pre Entrance Hunter College

    If anyone is following this thread, Hunter nursing admission decisions will be coming LATE May now.

    Maria Mendoza told me that it would be mid May this year. I know that last year was right about now but she told me this about 6 weeks ago.

    Excellent advice here: https://allnurses.com/pre-nursing-student/nln-pre-rn-534088.html

    I'm curious if you ever received a response from Hunter giving you a sense of your chances.
  18. Hunter College NLN PAX scores 2016

    I'm not sure how far along you are in your prereq study but you can retake the NLN every 6 months and Hunter will take your highest score. If you are applying to the generic program at Hunter, 126 is a bit low. If you are applying to the accelerated ...
  19. NLN Pre-RN/PAX Tips and Strategies

    Thank you for taking the time to post so thoroughly and thoughtfully. I took your advice very seriously and the result was a 166 on the NLN. Grateful for your post!
  20. NLN RN Pre Entrance Hunter College

    I'm applying for the Hunter accelerated program with a 166 NLN and a 3.83 from Nursing CAS. I was told it would be mid May for decisions.
  21. How To Get An "A" In Any Nursing Course

    "Make sure to proofread any assignments your turning in too as a last accuracy check (I can't tell you how many last minute mistakes I find in stuff!)
" Some great advice but this was funny.
  22. How Do I Apologize to Professor?

    Probably not the best time to correct her misuse of "emergent".
