I didn't see anyone here on allnurses that posted about SUNY Farmingdales advanced standing transfer Nursing B.S! I applied at the end of July and so far have received a letter that i passed the first round of admissions! YAY! I thought maybe we could all support one another and say our GPAs and Prerequisite grades for anyone who is interested. I have scheduled my TEAS exam for October 2nd. If anyone is interested in knowing, I decided to go with the TEAS at a PSI center and not at farmingdale so that I will be able to send my scores to other schools if I choose. I am really hoping to get in! Nursing is my dream. :)
I already have completed all the pre req courses required by farmingdale. I am currently a senior at a CUNY school studying Health Science.
Overall GPA: 3.65
Pre Req Course Grades:
1. A and P 1 = B+
2. A and P 2 = A
3. Eng. Comp 1 = A
4. Math (Pre Cal) = B+
5. Psych = A+
6. Three Liberal Arts Courses: (will vary among individuals)
A. Eng comp 2 = A-
B. Music = A
C. History = A
Pre Req GPA: 3.7
Quick questions for anyone who got this info from them:
1. Does this years TEAS exam have a calculator? And are we allowed to use it during the math section?
2. Is this a rolling admissions type thing or do they review applications AFTER the deadline?
Thank you everyone! I hope everyone interested gets in!
Congrats i know you were so worried still havent heard anything, reallt depressed right now lol. What time did you notice the change?! Just so i know when to look
I have a feeling u will get in. There were people in the past semesters who got in with low 70 TEAS...even if u get waitlisted there's still hope. Tons of people applied to different programs as well. I only applied to this one because I don't have microbiology and farmingdale didn't make it a prerequisite. To take micro at my school all the professors are awful and most people get D's in it. I didn't wanna Risk it lol I'm so happy to be out of Brooklyn College lol
True! As of now, I am still wait listed so I guess that is better than nothing, it's better than denied. I hve applied to other schools too but its pretty much down to FSU or waiting until fall for York College, which is gunna be horrible to keep waiting on lol. Ill post back if I hear something, I'll try to stay possitive in the mean time.
Did u get into FSU? And damn york college nursing is really hard....I called like last year for info and they told me u gotta have like a 3.8-3.9 in pre reqs! Once I heard that I hung up. Damn. FSU is a really good school. Is it in Florida? If ur thinking of Florida, why not try Valencia?? It's one of the best nursing programs out there and it's cheap
My friend was apart of the Valencia UCF connection program and she ended up at UCF after her asscoaiates. UCF has a GREAT nursing program. Cheap school and cheap dorming as well. I was gonna apply actually
Just wanted to let everyone know, admissions is starting to deny people. I was denied! Oh well i guess Adelphi it is !! Congratulations to everyone who got accepted!!
It's all good guys. Im happy going to adelphi, it's closer to me and overall great school. This year the applicant pool was really competitive for Farmingdale. A 3.79 gpa was not enough. The teas score is weighted heavily since I thought i was going to be fine with a 76. To future applicants, make sure your teas score is above the 80's!
