SUNY Downstate Summer 2016

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hey all! Wanted to start a thread for others who've applied to SUNY Downstate for the accelerated program in Summer 2016. I submitted my application back in August, and am finishing 2 final prerequisites this semester, and am anxiously awaiting a decision!

My application status says, "Application Sent to Committee." Have other folks applied and/or heard back yet? Would love to know if people are starting to get admissions answers, or have a sense of when that might happen.

Good luck everyone!

Yes I put negative. On the other page I only filled out the first one and in the email I adviced them I would resend it with the following doses after I receive them.

I need to update my HepB vaccination as well as my titre was low for that. So, when you filled out the health form, you marked off "neg", correct? And then in the vaccine dates you put the one you just got, and what about in the other two dates? "TBD"? I'm wondering how I should best have my doc fill out the form so I can get it in to SUNY asap. Thanks!

I didn't mark anything, my doc just put the date and series of the shot.

Hurry up, they have to clear you ONE MONTH before orientation which is on 6/7.

Well, I wasn't told to do that, but when I get my second shot I'll send them info

We had the choice to deny the vaccine all together so I don't think they're being strict about this one. But at the bottom of my checklist I have the

I finally got my health forms in last week. Regarding the Hep B thing (in case anyone else is still getting the forms together), my doc just put the first date of the new round of shots. The folks at StudentHealth said I have to get my 2nd dose in 1 month and to send documentation. So, I've been cleared. Now... I wait. Has anyone else that's on the waitlist been contacted yet? Any good news to share?

Anyone else on the alternate list have another school lined up or just waiting to hopefully hear back from downstate?

I did this mistake last year, applied just to SUNY. This year I applied to 3 more. Waiting for their respond. Nothing from SUNY yet. Going to get my second HepB shot today and fax it to them.

I did the exact same thing last year too. This year I got into two other programs one that starts at the same time as downstate and one that doesn't start till September.
