FGCU Nursing Program fall 2011

itsjlarious · Feb 27, 2011

Applying to schools is a long & stressful process, I know exactly how you're feeling right now. I was admitted to the FGCU BSN program last semester (Fall 2010). I scored an 86% overall on the TEAS & a 76% on the science portion, and my GPA was a 3.3. The average GPA was between a 3.4 and a 3.5 last semester. There was a girl who got in with a 3.0 but she had in the 90s on the TEAS. I would say you're right at the cutoff & it could be a 50/50 chance. DEFINITELY apply to more than one school, I applied to three or four w/ only one acceptance. Even apply to community college associates programs...you get paid the same as a BSN RN!!

Hey I applied to FGCU too. When did the Fall 2010 applicants receive their acceptance letters last year? I'm anxious to find out if im in or not. I have a 3.5 science gpa and a 3.46 overall GPA and a 84 TEAS score. Any advice?
