Did you get an email regarding registration info for orientation? The welcoming packet noted that we should receive instructions but I haven't received anything.

ok, i was also thinking the same thing.

Also, did you get your BLS certification yet? if so where? I think I might do mine at Phelps hospital.

lol seriously! I applied to the accelerated program at the riverdale campus. I have a graduate degree but somehow i think this might be my biggest challenge yet but I can't imagine applying to the traditional program. I know someone who graduated last may and she told me it was a hot mess but surprisingly she passed the NCLEX. I'll definitely be at orientation this Wednesday maybe we can try and meet up. Am I wasting my time going to the info sesh? should i just wait until orientation?

I totally understand where you're coming from as it relates to choosing a school. I've "kinda"settled on CMSV. I haven't made my deposit yet since the school is having an info session today as well as orientation on Wednesday. The information I receive will be the deciding factor as to whether or not I make the commitment and submit a deposit. i plan on asking about the NCLEX rates, the nursing educators and NCLEX preparation as well as clinical sites etc. Will you be attending today?

Hi Everyone, I was accepted into CMSV's accelerated nursing program for Fall 2015. Has anyone been accepted? Anyone plan on going? I've been reading the review about the program as it relates to NCLEX passing rates and the nursing staff at the school which has been extremely negative for the most part. Is anyone currently in the accelerated program that can shed some light on this. I am very worried. I also got into Dominican College's 2 yr accelerated program for May '16 and will be applying to Pace's 1 yr program for January '16. Ideally, i was planning on going to Pace but they are very expensive. However, although the program is very rigorous, i attended an info sesh and found out they have a very high NCLEX pass rate.
