I am new to the site and will be applying to CSN's RN program in March. I wanted to start a thread and see who will be applying with me and how things are coming along for everyone. :) I have all pre-reqs completed with a pre-req GPA of 3.58. I took the TEAS about a month ago and I passed, but wasn't thrilled with my score, particularly in science. I got an adjusted individual total score of 74.7%. Reading: 92.9%, Math 70%, Science 60.4%, and English & Language Usage: 76.7%. I barely passed the science portion and have signed up to take the TEAS one more time in February. With my current TEAS score, I have a total of 29 points for my application. I'm really hoping to get a better score and another point or two from the second TEAS!
Please let me know if you'll be applying in this cycle. I'd love to exchange advice and information and just connect with *hopefully* some future classmates! :)
I haven't heard anything...no information to share, but I certainly am getting antsy! I know they've said it could potentially be the end of April when we we hear, but I really, really hope it doesn't drag out until then! :-/
Hmm...so, I read somewhere this morning that there are 3 mandatory orientations before the first semester begins, not just 1. Still trying to plan a trip home and was aiming for June since everyone seemed to say that orientation was in May. Now I'm worried to buy a plane ticket at all if there are 2 others and I have no idea when they are! Does anyone know anything about additional orientations?
In other news...I'm now officially afraid to check the mail. LOL, so scared I'll find an envelope from CSN!

I dont know anything about the extra orientations, it sounds like it could be possible to have more than just one but i'm not sure...but i still think we have about two weeks to get phone calls then maybe some letters anyone else agree...but i think in a couple of weeks this thread will start buzzing about phone calls...so dont be scared yet.....
Thanks guys! For anyone else who is interested or maybe trying to make summer vacation plans, I got to meet a friend of a friend yesterday who is getting ready to graduate CSN's RN program and she said they have the orientation in May and then one other that will be shortly before the start of classes. She said June and July are pretty clear as far as any mandatory meetings. :) Just about 2 more weeks, yay!!!
So it's the 16th? Do you all think we'll find out next week? Wish it was this week! Has anyone heard anything else about how many are being accepted and the point cut-off's?
