Course Registration
The Office of Undergraduate Programs will randomly assign you to clinical sites and register you for ALL of your required coursework during your nursing sequences. Students in the BS program have their off-campus clinical experiences in a variety of settings throughout the New York Tristate area. You will receive a confirmation email when your schedule is complete and available in Albert.
The Office of Undergraduate Programs and Academic Clinical Affairs put a tremendous amount of effort into securing clinical sites and creating each student’s schedule. Our random process for clinical site selection results in a fair process for all students enrolled in our program. Due to the requirements, policies, and procedures established by our hospital/agency clinical partners, we are unable to make changes to student clinical assignments, unless required by our hospital/agency clinical partners.
