Stony Brook Basic BSN Fall 2012

[kitkats4breakfs]

Hello everyone!

I applied to Stony Brook's Basic (2-year) BSN program 3 weeks a go and thought it may be helpful to start up a forum.

If you are:

currently applying or plan on applying, a former applicant, a current SBU student, I'd love to hear from you!

Has everyone finished their perquisites? Does anyone else have a not so competitive GPA (like me)? Does anyone know who is considered a competitive applicant? Where is everyone else applying?

I look forward to speaking with everyone and hopefully entering the Fall '12 class together!

ashe7, I applied to the 1 year accelerated as well,and after I received my decision from that program there was a "Admission Decision Response" link on the main Solar Page. Out of curiosity, today I clicked it and I found that I was able to view the decision for both the 1 year (which had been there since I got my rejection) and now for the 2 year as well!

sproutandbean, when you apply to Farmingdale you are required to take an entrance exam at the school. When i went to take the exam, we were told that students who already hold Bachelor's Degrees that get accepted to the Associate Degree program will have to option in January to join their first Accelerated BSN program, where it will take 3 years to graduate as an RN with a BSN. I decided to take that option because even if I applied again next year for Stony Brook, I would be graduating at the same time from Farmingdale in their 3 year program. I also know a few nurses who are graduates of Farmingdale and it seems to be a great school!

I'm crossing my fingers for everyone who is still waiting!!!!

Thanks for answering my question dollface4k6. Good luck in Farmingdale:) How was the entrance exam? I got into Molloy's nursing program but I have to take an entrance exam, has anyone taken it? Does the math include algebra and trigonometry?

[sproutandbean]

My last name starts with a B, and I found out VERY early this morning.

[cookies143]

i don't understand why they wouldn't do it all at once

[Dollface4k6]

Alphabetical wouldn't be the case as I am an M and you guys are L and O haha. I would not have found out before you if they ere doing it alphabetical. You'll find out soon enough!

[BioD1234]
