Graduate student info and resources
Prior to the start of the semester, you should carefully review the information on Binghamton University's Graduate Academic Support and Success webpage. Also visit the New Graduate Student Information webpage and complete next steps as required. Additionally, you will find information about the many campus resources available at Binghamton to help you transition to graduate study.
If you have a felony or child abuse conviction
If you have a felony or child abuse conviction, your prior criminal history may impede your ability to complete the requirements of the Decker School of Nursing and/or to meet licensure requirements for nursing.
If you are concerned about this, contact the Decker College of Nursing and Health Sciences Division of Advising and Academic Excellence, the graduate nursing program director or the Decker College Dean's Office.
You are required to report felony convictions while enrolled in the Decker School of Nursing, as it may change your progression.
To learn if a felony/child abuse conviction will negatively impact your ability for licensure, check with the State Board of Nursing in the state where you plan to practice.
Could you be considered an individual with a disability under the law?
The definition of disability is very broad under the law and you may not realize you qualify for accommodations. If you have a diagnosis (physical, psychological, learning or other) that is impacting your academics OR if you received accommodations in high school, contact Binghamton University's Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) Office for a consultation to discuss potential equal-access accommodations. Read the guidelines for requesting accommodations.
