Anyone accepted for the Fall 2008 semester? I just got my acceptance letter!!! Yay!!! :) :yeah:

I'm on Long Island too, I'll be driving to and from classes. I'll have to drop the kids off at daycare first though of course.

I wonder where the new clinical sites will be?

Hey

i did my cna through Boces.... do u currently live on Long island...will u be commuting?? if so will u take the LiRR.

Will u be a day or evening student??

Yes I'm in Smithtown now. The LIRR + metrocard (bus) pass is around $300/month. Like stiltarget mentioned, they were looking at a new location (I was told closer to Nassau) so I'm waiting to hear on that before deciding on commute. I'm a day student.

the website is worthless it has no info your best bet is to call the school for any info..the school will be changing its name, location and clinical sites soon, it will no longer be catholic medical center. my class was official the last cmc admitted class....

personaly, BSN is the way to go. in the distant future i really want to get my CRNA so BSN---MSN is my route. NURSING HOME?lolol, not for me since i already work at Mt Sinai and a few other hospitals i am offered intership in there ICU or emergancy department. a few of my old friends are in the ED and they really like it so im gonna try my way with the hospitals..i really belive LTC is a graveyard for graduating RN's( no direspect to nursing home RN's)so when your done try your best to get into a hospital.

one friend of mine as a new grad ADN started in the ED making 71,k with night diff another is making 69,5 days in the ICU..

Ok so I'll definitely will go to a hospital...plus u'll utilize your learned skills more. so what schools r u looking into...and how soon after u graduate r you going for your BSN?? also how does a CRNA differ from a doctor doing anesthesiology... hows job opportunities for that? so MT Sinai is a pretty good hospital...thats where your friends started making 70K?
