Cuesta College Nursing Program

Published

Has anyone recently been accepted to Cuesta College's nursing program in California? If so what was your GPA, TEAS score and accumlative points if you do not mind sharing. I am finishing up the last of my prereqs and I really want to be as competitive as possible.

Hi I took my sciences and passed all with C’s (I was working two jobs so it was the best I could do without failing) do you think it’s still possible for me as long as I am to score high on my teas score?

If your GPA is under 2.5 for anatomy, physiology, and microbiology combined, then you HAVE TO retake something to bring it up. You aren't eligible to apply if it's under 2.5 (so I'm assuming it is 2.0 if you got all C's in anatomy, physiology, and microbiology). For every retake you need to -5 points from your total points. It will be difficult to get in even with a really high teas score, but if you apply 3 years and don't get in, they will add 10 points to your score the 4th year you apply. This makes it possible if you can wait that long to get in and really want to go to Cuesta. I'd look at the point break down and see how you can get every point you possibly can.
