CT-CCNP 2020/2021 APPLICATION

[mousey129]

OK, let's get ready to rumble...

I'm applying to Gateway's program this coming fall.

A&P 1: A

Nursing GPA: will be about a 3.6 when I complete all the requirements. I took all the co-requisites or they transferred from my previous degrees. I have two B+'s and one C and I don't think it's financially wise to re-take them, because Gateway said they will take the average of the two grades and that won't bump me up too much, so it is what it is.

TEAS to be taken Oct 2020. Goal score 80 or better, hopefully I will only take it once.

They said at orientation they have 96 seats and get close to 1000 applicants ?

Nursing will be a 2nd career for me. I know they look at my whole educational background, and I have a 3.388 (cum laude) for my BS and a 3.504 for my MA. No F's but I have two C's and one D+ in there. Hoping they see these grades were earned almost 20 years ago and don't count it against me too much.

Study hard and good luck everyone!

I don't have a back-up plan right now but I want to start brainstorming something not too expensive or time-consuming if I don't make it.

Just applied to gateway new haven. I’m an LPN and hope to bridge. 3.67 GPA. Only class left is Micro and I start that this Spring. Very nervous 

I just submitted mine to Gateway too. I have all my prereqs and coreqs done except for AP2 and sociology which I'll be taking in the Spring. 3.41 GPA, 74.7 TEAS score. Good luck to you!

I was #32 at NCC but the next LPN in line.

Do you happen to know how many people were called off the waitlist when you were accepted?

Unfortunately I do not. I’m sorry.

Decisions are posted!

I got into Gateway.

For reference, my stats were:
A&P1: A
TEAS: 88
Nursing GPA: 3.6something, depending on what stats course they used and whether they included an elective in the calculation.

This will be a 2nd career for me I already have a bachelors and masters so I will probably only need the core nursing courses. After that I want to complete the BSN online at Southern and hopefully I can re-use some of my credits from my former degrees.

A little off topic but I got accepted into Gateways program for this fall. For any of those who are in this thread and are currently in a CT CCNP program. What kind of shoes have worked best for you for clinical rotations? Thanks in advance!
