choosing a school for nursing

I don't know where you live but I go to Ivy Tech in Ft Wayne and there's no such thing as a wait list there. You either have enough points to earn a seat or you don't. It's simple, there is so many seats (I believe 60 per semester but don't quote me on that) and they go in a points system based on your A&P 1 and 2, Engl 111, and PSYC 101 grades us TEAS V score. Don't get me wrong, it's highly competitive. If you can pull the grades, you shouldn't have a problem getting a spot. Hope that helps some! I don't know anything about ITT but I've read on here that it's super expensive.

Thank you for your information and I live in south bend, IN. So when do you take the TEAS test after your done with the prereqs? Before applying to the nursing program?

You're very welcome! You can take your TEAS whenever you want but it can't be more than 3 months prior to applying I do believe. Most people wait until they've at least had A&P 1; however, some are just naturally great at retaining info and take them straight away while others like a lot of prep time. I have a few people in my class doing pre req's part time and aren't taking theirs until after A&P 2. I'm just about done with A&P 1 and will be applying in April for fall 2013. I have waited to take mine because I've been out of school for 15 years and really needed to almost relearn most of the science. I'm taking mine in January so I have all of the break between semesters to study and will take it before I get heavy into A&P 2.

HTH! : )
