Hey I also applied for the 2021 lpn program! Anxiously waiting !

Hey guys I decided to join this chat although I only applied for the Spring 2021 lpn program. I was wondering if you guys heard anything yet ? I know that I won’t have an answer until you guys hear something first .And I wish you all the best of luck !

Ok great congrats again ! And best of luck to you !!!!

Oh wow that's great! Congrats I didn't apply until March/April ...if you don't mind me asking , are you In the fall associates program? Also do you know if any other threads on this topic ?

Hi, I also applied for fall 2017 .... I've been calling to check the status of my application but the last answer I received was that the board will be making decisions sometime in June..... have you heard anything back from the school as of yet?

Congrats on your acceptance to St. Paul's! !! I haven't back from them yet........Give yourself alot of credit because they chose you out of alot applicants. I say go with your heart/gut when making your decision. I came across this post from a current student thought you might be interested as I know you know you've been looking for someone to give you clear insight. https://allnurses.com/new-york-nursing/st-pauls-school-963148.html Congrats and good luck again

I apologize the accreditation website that I used was http://www.acenursing.org

Ok the accreditation website I used was Coming Soon - Future home of something quite cool the website for excelsior/st. Paul's partnership is http://www.excelsior.edu/web/partners/saint -pauls and I also have to take back what I said about adelphi it states that diploma graduates must take and pass 24 credits from excelsior college.....this is the website RN to BSN | Nursing Programs - Long Island, NY

Good evening, for some reason I can't figure out how to reply through my laptop but anywho I have kind of a great update. I didn't get a chance to speak to hr yet but I will definitely do it tomorrow. I did a little more research and discovered that spson has a partnership with excelsior college for rn-bsn, MSN etc..(think it's online not sure but it's located in albany), which is fully accredited by the acen. Also a different route would be to go to adelphi university with is in long island I believe ....it says if you have a degree or diploma from a non accredited college you have to earn 24 credits from excelsior college.....I will try to give you the links in a few. Also I received an email last week regarding cpr classes so I called and asked if it has anything to do with being accepted and she said no its a class they give for everyone. I also called admissions today and asked when the acceptance letters will go out and she said that they will be making calls to the people who were accepted since it's so close to the start of the program. She also said she is about to go on vacation. Hope this info is of help..........

Ok it's great to hear positive feedback finally! Yes i work for a city hospital also, that's how i found out about SPSON. I recently began seeing students from there doing clinical so maybe you are right because i also see students from bmcc doing clinical at my job. I'm thinking in the past maybe SPSON wasn't as strict in their admissions process which is maybe they do not have such a great name right now. I will ask the nursing department if they hire/have hired graduates from SPSON and let you what they say if you like. Good luck on getting accepted! You'll probably get in , it seems like they are really interested only students who take nursing school very serious. I'm not sure when the acceptance letters go out but this waiting process is very nerve wrecking which is probably contributing to my doubts.....but anyway good luck again

Hello, I also applied to spson for spring 2015, like many, I was excited at first because I passed the hesi exam and also feel i did really good on my interview with the director(early November 2014). I am , sadly, confused as to whether I should pursue an education, if accepted, with them because of the scary stories I keep hearing and coming across. I currently work at a hospital where they do their clinical and I get mixed reviews about the school after asking current students. I am also confused to whether they are accredited by NLN or not because they are listed as a member on their website. Has anyone heard any positive reviews of the school? Know any graduates and where they got jobs after graduating spson? Or even got in to rn-bsn programs? I am just afraid to waste time and money.
