Accelerated BSN TAMUCC summer 2019

Published

Hi everyone, I'm going to be graduating this semester with my bachelors in Biology and I plan to apply to the Accelerated BSN program at Texas a&m Corpus Christi. I really hope I get in, but my gpa is pretty low. My overall is a 3.3 and my pre requisite gpa is a 3.4. I do, however, have CNA experience in home health, telemetry, and the NICU. I also have lots of health care volunteer hours.

Does anyone know any inside details about the accelerated nursing program like how many students get accepted, how competitive it is or what you think my chances are? have any of you been accepted and can give me some advice?

The accelerated program isn't requiring the HESI anymore so I can't really make up for my gpa by getting a high HESI score so I'm a little sad about that. I really want to get accepted and I'm going to pour my heart into the personal statement but i feel like so many programs only accept students with stellar stats.. :(

You have really great stats! I’m sorry to hear. Everything happens for a reason but you’ll get there one way or another. Good luck!

I’ve emailed them twice with no response :( I wonder what’s taking so long! And I really hope you get in!! Did they give you a date as to when you should know if you’re in or not?

Hello! I interviewed 3/10 and got accepted 3/12. I was just wondering if anybody accepted from this group started a GroupMe or a Facebook page so we could be connected. If not I’m willing to start one!

I’m applying to he summer 2020 accelerated program at TAMUCC and worried about my college gpa. They said it’s cumulative but I took dual credit in highscool... and did it just to pass. And my core classes were terrible. But my actual undergrad like my major gpa is a 3.5

Science gpa:3.5
