I didn't hear anything yet. Hopefully Monday we will hear something back. I was told that we will get an email.

Thanks, Britt. I applied for the 2nd bachelor's, but I assume they notify everyone in the same way. Finger's crossed for both of us.....

Yeah I'm sure they will just email everyone. What are your stats? How did u do on the TEAS?

Last year we heard on the 11th. They sent everyone a letter. Last year I had a 4.0 all TEAS points and didn't get in. I took my pre reqs over at EMU this past winter and got A's again. I have done everything I could so I'm hopeful this year. Good luck to everyone.

Hi Tommy2001,

I also applied last year with about a 3.8-3.9 gpa. 15/20 on the TEAS and most of my prereqs taken at eastern. I didn't get in. I am hoping to get in this time around. I retook the TEAS and got 20/20 and I also now have job experience. My lowest grade is a B+ so there is really nothing for me to take over. Last year were all of your classes transfer classes?

Hey Brit, Crazy isn't it. Ya all my courses were transfers, so I re-took them at Eastern this past semester to get my points. I read my rejection letter like five times last year. I thought there was a mistake!! lol...You must have just missed it last year. I know I was five points from the cut off. I have a feeling there isn't going to be as many apps this year and we are sitting in a better position. I will let you know if I hear anything we should know this week. Keep your fingers crossed!

Tommy2001,

Yeah I know last year I think I had about 146 points and if I had gotten 20/20 on the TEAS then I would have been accepted. It was such a bummer. But this year my application is stronger so hopefully I will get it this time around. Not sure what I will do if I don't get in this time. Do you know how many points you had last year?

Ya I had 145 I think if I remember right the cut off was 150. Either way I remember being five points short. I'm thinking its going to be at least the same this year just with fewer applicants. (my opinion) I think a lot of people who were in my boat decided against retaking pre reqs. I think you'll have a hard time getting in without taking classes at Eastern. In fact even if you have a 4.0 and TEAS points your chances are slim. At least last year it wasn't possible unless you had healthcare exp to add. I don't know what I'll do either. I thought maybe something would have come in the mail today but nothing. Did you say we should get an email? I didn't get one last year did you?
