Clayton State Fall 2010 BSN

blackbarbie83 · Apr 22, 2010

I'm not in the program as of yet, but I'll be attending Clayton State University for the first time this fall. I'm hoping to apply for the Spring of 2011 and I just wanted to know what should I expect during the application. My GPA is pretty solid at about a 3.25 or so because of mistakes that I've made about 8 years ago. I'm really nervous and I just wanted to know what to expect. Anything would help! :confused: And BTW congrats!!!!!

I too would love to know any info. I applied 2 times and got rejected both times. I have a 3.1 but have 4 A's and 8 B's in the prereqs. I think maybe it was my TEAS and maybe that they wont consider you if you haven't taken patho?

Hello,

According to the advisors, the admissions criteria include your overall GPA, your math/science GPA and your TEAS scores. I don't know what the average TEAS is for accepted students--mine was an 88.2 if that helps.

They said that to be most competitive, over a 3.25 GPA is best.

It might be worthwhile to make an appointment to see one of the advisors to ask about what you can do to strengthen your application. That way you have a firm plan :)

Also--apply, apply, apply--everywhere. More chances to get into a program.

I applied to 4 nursing programs :)

I don't think patho is a problem--I've not taken it yet--and doing so this summer...

Hi Klea,

I'm at Clayton State as well and should be enrolling in the Fall 2010 Program. How was the interview and were the questions hard?

What was your overall gpa, and your science and math gpa? I have an overall gpa of 3.32 and 80 on TEAS...I'm so nervous. I just sent my app in to Clayton a few days ago? Think I will get in?
