FGCU Nursing Program fall 2011

[Rebeccakaye]

I just applied to get into the FGCU nursing program for fall 2011. I am so stressed out and worried about whether I will get in. I got an 83% on my TEAS with an overall score of 75% for the science portion but my GPA is only a 3.13. What scores have people gotten who have gotten into the program in past semesters and who applied to get in for the fall?

I'm now in my second semester at fgcu and I love it! It's definitely really hard but I am learning SO much, especially now that I'm in clinicals. I would recommend going with the bsn if you have the opportunity. You will thank yourself down the road for not having to go back to school. But it's really up to you. If its really inconvenient to go to fgcu it may not be worth it. But I would get it all done in one shot if I were you. You're gonna be so tired of school by the time you get your degree, you might as well end with a bsn. But I do really love the program at fgcu! Lemme know if you have any other questions )

Does anyone know hoe FGCU looks at your grades I had an F in a class but took it over and recived an A how would fgcu look at that??

Is it bad to have a higher gpa than the average one they admit? For instance, they said the average is 3.5-3.6 and by the admit period I'll have a 3.7. Do you think they like to accept lower gpas because I see a lot of people with lower gpas getting in like 3.3-3.4? Also, does anyone know how many people apply each year?

I don't think it's bad. I have a higher one. I think those with higher GPAs may just go to other schools that are maybe ranked higher? And it's not just the gpa that they look at
