Cochran School of nursing Fall 2020

Published

Hello All!

I noticed that there wasn't a thread for this year so I wanted to start one.

I live in near Hartford, CT and I'm 25 and I want to start a career in Nursing.

I have a BA in Psychology with a low undergrad GPA of a 2.51 ?

So I'm taking the longer route to eventually become a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

I do have a high pre-req GPA due to class retakes at several community colleges and I've also completed all of the pre-req requirements too.

Teas score of 76, and experience as Americorps state member at a health education site with 1700 hours.

Im hoping to take the kaplan test soon so any advice would help too! Admissions stated that they would give me a May 19 or 20th test date.

Anyone know when we will hear back from admissions after taking the test?

Also what score is competitive?

thats awesome have you guys heard anything I applied to Monte and got denied for their evening. So I wanted to know about CSN because I applied for their evening for Fall 2020

Specializes in MA.

My friend applied to Cochran shortly after me and she received an acceptance letter yesterday.

Thats amazing news! How did you guys do on your Kaplan??

Hi everyone I applied for the day and evening program, and I got my acceptance letter yesterday for the day program. I wish everyone well this coming up week. I was told next week they will still be I touch but they sent mine in yesterday.

Does anyone know the books to get for the first semester??

Was it an email or letter?

I got an email from them yesterday.

I received an email, it said a letter was sent out also. And I’m not sure about the books yet, Congratulations on your acceptance!!

Thank you so much congratulations to you too!! its been a rough road as I'm sure everyones has been, I recently had a horrible experience with Monte so this took me by complete surprise I had to hurry up and retake my Kaplan because CNS wanted it done with them and didn't want the one I took in July 2019. But since I'm new to the thread I didn't want to pop in like that to the convo. I didn't even join it in the beginning because I really didn't think I was going to get accepted since everything was moving so fast.

CONGRATS to you 2 that got accepted! Could you share with us how you did on the Kaplan?

Thank you! I am glad that you at least pulled through, I went to Monte open house a few years ago but I always wanted CNS, this is my second application my first was 2018 but I was missing classes, this year I took wasn’t expecting to get in I applied in May last minute Becuase I could not get a hold on anyone, but I understand the frustration behind it and I truly wish everyone the best! Do not get discouraged because this is my second attempt and I was able to improve my GPA and Kaplan score. I hope next week is filled with positive news for all of you!!

On the Kaplan I got an 81, my first attempt a few years back I got a 77 or 78 so I improved this time around.

Thank you so much! I got a 71 the first time I took it and a 76 when I took it with CNS not the greatest but I also had all my pre reqs done. how did you do? did you take all your pre reqs?
