UNCG BSN Summer 2018

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

I just wanted to start a thread for prospective students applying to UNCG's BSN program starting in Summer/Fall 2018! Has anyone else submitted their applications yet?

I'm not sure that having experience or not really matters, I know I mentioned it in my two short answer responses on the application but I know they are mainly looking at our overall GPA, pre-req grades and teas score. I would say being an EMT definitely helps as far as basic assessment skills in a pre hospital setting, plus I get to see some cool stuff and coordinate with nurses daily, but in terms for applying I'm not sure it helps much. I made an 86 on my teas on the first try, but I took it so late I couldn't retake it with enough time. I was told a mid 80's score would be preferred. Hopefully it's good enough, I was really hoping to get at least a 90. Fingers crossed!

Oh wow that is good! I was up all night before mine because I have the worst test anxiety xD

I also don't have any CNA experience, but I have volunteered at a local hospital in a patient contact role. I surprisingly scored in the 99th percentile on the TEAS without much prep, but I have a "lower GPA" (around 3.6) so I hope they balance each other out.

I only have a 3.62 GPA with 84.7 Teas score. Not so confident about getting accepted tho. Do you mean cumulative GPA or prered gpa?

I'm talking cumulative GPA, I think my pre-req GPA is a little higher but I don't know the exact number. Overall I have a 3.64 cumulative GPA and a 93.3 teas, so I'm also not so confident about getting accepted...

I can't believe they send out letters tomorrow... I'm freaking out.

Hopefully with me living locally it will get here pretty fast (with the answer I'm hoping for lol).

I'm so nervous, too!! I wish they would email them instead of having to wait for the snail mail.

I know, I'm only five minutes away from their office xD

Does anyone know if you can go to the on-campus post office and pick it up early or something? My OCD is kicking my butt about this letter xD

Not sure but you could always call and ask! But if they mail them first thing tomorrow I wouldnt be surprised if you got it the same day!

I'm going insane xD My entire future is literally in that letter
