Hi all, I was wondering f you guys could update the thread on whats happing now....after test and interviews? I am applying after the summer because I have to take chem...but I am almost done with all the other classes. Just have A&P in the fall/spring. Do you think having these classes done gives you an advantage?

Thanks

No update, just nervously waiting for a letter in the next few weeks... :bugeyes:

Well good luck to all of you. Please let us know what happens. Have you guys did any pre-reqs yet? Do you think it helped with app? Do you know want the ave gpa is? How many seats are open, how many apps? Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks

If by pre-req you mean classes required prior to application (Chem lab, Algebra, etc.) that is a requirement prior to acceptance, and not really a factor for comparison. If by pre-req you mean classes that will be required during the program, then I'm SURE any of the curriculum classes you have completed will help. The advisor told me that because I did not have any (related and transferrable) college credits or a more recent grade history, they only had my TEAS score for evaluation.

(I'm going in cold - high school classes only) She did, however, encourage me to take 2 courses (like sociology, psychology, etc) this summer to lighten my load, should I be accepted.

I do not know the avg gpa.

I do know that for the fall, there are a little over 200 applicants for 100 seats.

Thanks! Let me recommened Dr. Plume at J. Sarg for Soc, and Dr. Riefsteck for Psy. Both are awsome teachers, and easy As...you will learn alot. Not sure where you plan on doing your pre-req, but just a thought. As for pre-reqs, i did mean most of the classes that are reqiured except the nursing classes. I have has everything except Chem, A&P,and Mth 120. It sucks that have to wait until after the summer to apply because of Chem!!! Anyone heard of nursingabc.com? They suggested it for Chem.
