Saint Joseph College Brooklyn Spring 2018

Published

Good Morning everyone,

I am so excited that I finally got into Nursing school. I got an email this morning from SJC advising me that I got accepted to the nursing program for spring semester. I originally applied for Fall'18 because I was told by the admissions that they only accept Fall admission. But low and behold a few weeks later I got an email from them stating that a few spots opened up and if I would like my application put in for Spring '18. That was a no brainer, so I dutifully accepted and the wait almost killed me lol. Finally got an email this morning and I began screaming. Finally guys, it's been a long grueling journey that I thought would never end. I have all As and a couple of Bs in my prerequisites but my overall GPA is 2.9 which is pretty low and I had almost given up on getting into any program. I also got accepted into a weekend program in Dominican College but the transportation was a little to much to go upstate and I had a few more prerequisites that they needed me to complete. Please if anyone got accepted or is an alumni I would love to hear your thoughts on the program and any feedback is appreciated. Thank you.

Ah ok. Thanks for your reply. Wishing you luck. I know it's hard.

Thank you so much. Yes it's difficult, but with some prioritizing it's doable. I'm getting a little better with prioritizing such heavy loads.

Hi , @sweetkeish how are the classes at st Joseph college ? How are clinicals? Which hospital do they use for clinicals. I applied for the spring 2019 on Brooklyn campus as a transfer student. I been place on the waiting list for the spring.

Hi. Congrats. When did you apply and how long did it take to get an answer?

@michiboo I applied in September for the spring 2019 and I received a letter in the mail by October saying that I have been placed on the waiting list for BSN . I won't get a final decision until December or the first of week of January because classes start January 16. If you looking to apply you still have time but it's fills up a quickly . The earlier the better

Hi, @foodprincess1 how are the classes at st Joseph

Ok that's not a bad wait. Only one month. What gpa did you get in with? I have really good score in my sciences A and A- it's the stuff prior to me deciding to go into nursing that has my gpa at a 2.8 now.

I was also intially told when I inquired at SJC that a 3.0 is needed and only accept students in the fall.

@michiboo they keep saying that they accept fall only when they take spring applicants also. My gpa is 3.3. There are some people that got in with a 2.9 GPA. You have s good shot in getting in . You should apply

Ok thanks so much. I will give them a call tomorrow and pay them a visit. #verynervous

@michiboo which campus the Brooklyn or Long Island? Don't be nervous you'll be fine. Let me know what they say tomorrow.

Thanks. I'm interested in the Brooklyn campus. I tried calling numerous times today. I will pay a visit this afternoon.

@michiboo how was the visit?
