That's good to hear that a 75 on the TEAS was sufficient for them! I'm taking again on Wednesday. They are accredited in that when you are done with the program, you can sit for the NCLEX...they are going through the steps now to get approved by NLN. You need like 1 or 2 graduating classes...so they can't be accredited yet. But the people of NLN have been there and will be there visiting again as needed...that's what I was told when I went to the info session.. I had asked about that accreditation.

O.K. well I wish you the best of luck....since you are re-taking the exam, look at the print out that they gave you back from your previous test and look at what areas they recommended you work on, this really helped me out a lot my second time around....I focused more on what I messed up on and also was just a little more relaxed...I wish you luck and hope that you will be joining us in the program.

Awww..thanks hon! That's exactly what I'm going to do. I've been reading the ATI book and tomorrow I'm going to look at the print out and just go over those things.

I sure hope I will be joining you guys too! fingers crossed!:)

@ sburnett.....I got an email from them saying they will be in touch on what the next steps are. I assuming we will get out packet in the mail soon. At least I hope soon! I am super curious about everything!

@ Smokey.....hey! good luck on the re-take!! I got a 79 on the teas. Which I didnt think we good enough, but apparently it was!!

Same here....I have so many emotions going on at the same time curious, happy, nervous, its so crazy. Have you been able to speak with any other students about the program because I have yet to find any forums from student who are in the program at Northwestern.
