I am a current GCU nursing student, a previous transfer hopeful. I am not sure how difficult it would be for a transfer student to get into the program, especially in light of recent events.... However, I would not become too discouraged! My fingers are crossed for you! !!

Lioness-

Do you mind telling us what your pre-req GPA was and your HESI scores when you applied? Just curious how mine compares. I'm hoping to get into the Fall 2015 fast track. I was part of the summer hopefuls that got let down :/ really praying it works out this time

Hi everyone! I actually just got off the phone with an advisor for transfer students as I am applying for fall as a transfer. I was told that the Hesi score is 70% and you are now allowed to take it 2 times max for each application but only 4 times max total for life. That the transfer student application is now a lottery with a 70% Hesi score and 3.25 GPA. Hope this helps and good luck to everyone, application date is just around the corner!

I was told hat chemistry was taken off completely from the GCU Hesi list but you have to have at least 70% in A&P and 80% in everything else.

I'm taking the Hesi on Monday and will apply at the Tucson campus. My overall GPA is 3.9 with a science GPA of 3.7. They haven't calculated in two more As yet so that's were I stand so far.

Right, the chemistry and bio are not needed for gcu hesi. But my advisor did mention that overall hesi only had to be a 70% now and they just made that change last month. I'm touching base with my advisor again on Monday and also looking forward to the webinar next week for confirmation on what it looks like for transfers although from what I hear it's not bright:/

I'm retaking my HESI on Wednesday because I did better on my HESI at Estrella because I studied the math portion so I know I can do better on my GCU HESI. I'm scared because this one will be the one that counts regardless if the score is worse ðŸ˜³ but that won't happen! I'm studying everyday!

I just took my HESI today I got an overall of 85.6% so reading these comments made me feel better! I also am transferring from GCC and was awarded the Presidential Scholarship? Curious to see if anyone else has recieved this? My GPA is 3.8 so hopefully this with my Score on the HESI gets me in this Fall! Good luck everyone!!

Erika,

I also received that at EMC but I think it only matters if you will be going back to GCC. Congrats though! That's awesome ðŸ˜Š

Oh no this is a new Transfer Program Scholarship they started a couple years ago and it's awarded to anyone that has a 3.5 GPA or higher. I also recieved a letter confirming the scholarship being awarded. Does anyone know how long it takes to get a reply on acceptance into the nursing program?
