Csuci nursing fall 2019

oh no! yeah I remember that being there but it hasn't been on the supplemental criteria for months. I took the CLEP exam last week for Spanish and it wasn't too bad!! if you pass the CLEP, will you still be in the 20s?

Jessasaurus27 · Nov 19, 2018

I think with the CLEP I'm looking at being right around 31 points. How did you prepare for the CLEP? Are you a native Spanish speaker? I'm nervous about taking it, I know you have to score around 85% on it to have it count for the supplemental criteria right?

I went into it blind. I didn't study at all but I am a native speaker. It isn't too bad! Nope, if you check on the supplemental criteria it says you need a 68 or higher for the credit.

Isn't that 68/80 score though (85%)?

pedsnurse2626 · Nov 19, 2018

It isn't out of 80, there are over 100 questions. When you finish the exam you are given a score, not a percentage but yes, I see what you mean. I believe they convert it to a scale of 80 max but it isn't out of 80 questions. You'll just see a score and if it is over 68 then you are good!

I plan on living at home. I can’t afford to live on campus ? but I wish I could! Having a nursing dorm could be fun!

I know! it adds so much but I live an hour away without traffic so I don't know if commuting is the best thing. Im conflicted ?

Hello everyone!

I am a sophomore hoping to get in. I was told 32-33 points is the minimum, and 34-35 is golden.

I hope I get in this year, next year it will be harder to do so because they will be conducting interviews.

I heard that they’re changing a lot of aspects in the supplemental.

My points are:

Overall GPA: 3.77, 6 points. (Lol barley made it)

Pre-reqs GPA: 3.86, 10 points.

TEAS score: 9 points.

Enrolled as a CI student: 4 points.

Work experience as a caregiver for 200+ hours: 6 points.

Proficiency in another language: 4 points.

Academic Accommodation Member: 1 point.

That puts me at 40 points.

Hopefully all of my documents get accepted, I was told that sometimes they could be picky. ?

Hello!!

You sound like a perfect candidate, I don't doubt that youll get in with that score! I have 33 points and am super nervous that Im barely on the edge ?

I also had difficulty with the paperwork, I have volunteering hours and they made me resubmit all of my letters because they weren't detailed enough.

But I resubmitted and now my application says it has been reviewed. Now we just have to wait until the last week of March!!
