FGCU Fall 2015

Published

Hello everyone ! I'm new to all nurses. I haven't seen a thread posted yet for FGCU fall 2015 so I thought I'd start one even though we still have a while until applications are due (Feb 1st). My stats are as follows: GPA 3.6, adjusted Teas 85, program percentile 90. I hear they recalculate your GPA for the nursing program so I think that my GPA may be a lot lower than that since I've retaken a few classes. I'm considering retaking the Teas to make myself a more competitive candidate just in case my GPA turns out to be a lot lower. How many of you are thinking of applying ? If so what are your stats ?

Hello everyone, I was wondering what the application consisted of (essay, listing volunteer work, etc.)?

I am going to be applying soon for spring admission.

You can find all the info on their website. No essay or volunteer work required.

Does anyone know how they inform you of their decisions? Is it through mail or email or maybe even phone call? I'm new to this forum. I applied but I don't even know if I was considered because of my statistics class. I'm not sure if it was a high enough statistics course for them. At UCF where I took it, it was STA2014 but it shows on FGCU as STA2023 so I'm not sure if that transferred over. Every time I talk to someone at the nursing school they tell me they'll get back to me but never do so I gave up honestly :-( idk what to prepare myself for lol

The confirmation receipt when I sent in the application said we'd be notified approximately 10 weeks after the deadline via the United States postal service

Has anyone received anything in the mail yet? I am checking every day, but nothing so far. I am hoping to get something by at least next week!

Last year most of the notifications seemed to go out on April 9th, so I'm not going to start obsessing about checking the mail until at least another week.

Nope, nothing yet. I called to see if they've been sent out yet and they said the applications were still in review by the admissions committee. I hope they get sent out next week. I'll start to panic if I haven't heard anything by the 15th lol.

Hi All. HAPPY EASTER! The board must have a lot of applicants to consider, since they are still reviewing applications. :-(. April 11, will be 10 weeks exactly. I read 8-10 weeks to receive notification, however it seems like it will be the latter. We are anticipating optimistically to hear if our daughter is accepted. Let's post when we receive notification, so everyone will know they are being sent out. Have a great day!

Should be sometime this week, but sounds like it'll be near the end if they're still actually reviewing them. I'll make sure to update the second I hear anything as I'm starting to get anxious with the mail!

FGCUEAGLEMOM,

Where are you located? I ask because I'm wondering which of us will get the mail delivered from Fort Myers sooner. I am located in Citrus County, FL (three hours straight north) of Fort Myers.

Is anyone else's GPA on Gulfline for the prerequisite classes weird? Mine is only listed as a 3.6 something, but it's actually over a 3.9 as I received all "A's" and one "B+" in the prerequisite coursework and only took each class once.

Also, don't run to your mailboxes as I was informed just this morning today that applications are STILL in review. I sent an email asking about my prereq GPA and asked if applications were still in review and was told a simple "Yes," so looks like it may take longer than 10 weeks? It does say "approximately 8-10 weeks" after the deadline, so who knows :(.
