Any applicants for Stanislaus Fall 2012

Cali_Nurse_209 · Feb 29, 2012

I applied and wanted to see if I actually have any chance. I had applied for spring 2012 but didnt notice that I had to take statistics which I am now in progress. But everything seems good. I just want to hear and compare my application. My TEAS score was 83.5 and my prereqs science is Micro B, Physio B, Anatomy C, Chemistry Organic/Biochemistry A, Intro to Chem B. My other prereq: English, Critical Thinking, Speech are all A's. So what happens to my statistics do they make it into a C or B for now or how will my points be for having one in progress. I have over 100 hours of volunteering and speak Spanish. The sucky part is that i dont attend STAN STATE or live in the area.
I had worked in a clinic as an Medical Assistant for one seasonal term.
Do i have a chance? please advise.

Hey, I have applied to the RN program at Stan for fall 2012. I have an A in Anatomy, A in Microbiology, B in Physiology, A in Critical Thinking, A in English B in Comm, B in Statistics, A in Organic/Biochem. lecture, and currently have Organic/Biochem. lab in progress. Teas V score was 72 : ( I got all the extra points except for being bilingual. I would say I do think you have a chance because it all depends on the grades of the applicant pool. Some semesters grades/gpa may be lower or higher. Right now, my overall GPA is a 3.79. I'm jus trying to stay positive about everything eventually I'll get in somewhere. Stay positive even if you get on the alternate list because they could possible go up into the 20's : )

Wow will you are ahead I me for sure. I had a c on anatomy but my teas was an 84

Cali_Nurse_209 · Feb 29, 2012

Oh, and as for your in progress class, from my understanding they calculate your points based off of what you have completed. Same goes for my biochem. lab that's in progress now.

Cali_Nurse_209 · Feb 29, 2012

Yes, so I think you have a chance. Reading older posts and other people's stats I know of a person who got in with a 74 teas score, had a few B's and none of the extra points. So, I don't know how that went.

Your teas score could make up for your c in Anatomy. Seems like all your other grades are good so you should be fine. They said that letters should be coming out mid May fingers crossed.

Good luck. I can't wait to hear. And if I do get in (which I'm getting way far into my self) I would need a place to stay and I don't think housing on campus is cheap. So yea. Let's stay in contact here til the suspense.

They aren't just accepting students from their university right? Because I know they did that in the past.

Cali_Nurse_209 · Feb 29, 2012

Ok yea that'll be cool. I think it's good to be confident though, you never know you could be accepted. Sometimes I get ahead of myself too lol. But atleast we are in a position to apply to nursing programs, it took me 3 yrs to get to this point.

Cali_Nurse_209 · Feb 29, 2012

I believe they did that back in 2009. But now they are accepting people from everywhere not just current Stan State students.

Took me two but not getting accepted and trying again is another year

I know they say that they base acceptance solely off of grades, gpa, etc but I wonder if that's really the case..? I've had people tell me they had like 4.0 gpas but weren't accepted or they were put on the alternate list. Some people had lower grades than me, but the extra credit points and were accepted... So I wonder.
