well, i decided to start this thread to get all of the arizona state bsn majors that are applying for the 16-month summer program starting in may of 2011 together. i went to the advancement workshop on 11/12/2010 and saw so many people there. i can't even imagine how many people will be applying. with only 100 seats open, it's going to be tough, although that's probably an understatement. the advancement scores for summer cycles have been lower than the traditional 24-month program in the past, but with all the changes that asu decided to make , i think things will be different this time around. i don't think my chances are very good compared to other applicants. i have a 3.81 gpa... realistically, i'll probably have to get like a 92% on the teas to be competitive against students that have a 4.0, which seems like most do. i don't think that's possible...but i gotta stay optimistic. with replacement course for sciences being virtually impossible to take (seeing how you need so many pre-reqs for them which the nursing program doesn't require), i'm starting to worry:crying2: .however, all i can do is study my butt of for the teas and see what happens.
anyhoo..... feel free to share comments and stories, ask questions, and connect with other students that are applying for the summer 2011 program. this is just a way for us to get through the long wait until april arrives and to provide encouragement for each other. :heartbeat
Did anyone else notice the information under their programs tab change? It may just be wishful thinking, but it looks like mine changed to reflect placement in the downtown phoenix nursing program. Would somebody let me know if this happened to them too or if I am just crazy?
Did you guys know that they changed the requirements for the fall semester? The multiplier is gone! I guess that was expectant since ASU changes their program every week.
I am really tired of all these constant changes. It is really, really frustrating. I think that it has gotten out of hand and after four years of ASU, I think I am personally ready to look at other schools. But, just venting here lol:lol2:
Sorry, what is the multiplier? is this the deal that gave ASU students the advantage? Does this mean the same rules apply for fall applicants as did before?
Yeah the multiplier was the thing that gave ASU students an advantage. The GPA will be the same for Fall then. I think they still have the rule for Fall where you can only use 2 replacements - 1 ENG and 1 other.
. Yours didn't say that before?
