FSW Fall 2016 Nursing Applicants

Published

Hello everyone,

I wanted to create a thread for those of us that are planning on applying to the nursing program for fall 2016. We can post about studying for the HESI/TEASE. FSW has changed from the HESI beginning Febuary 2016, so those of you that haven't already taken it you must take the HESI before Febuary 1st. If not you will need to plan on studying for the TEASE. Application deadline is May 15th. We can post about our points, most of you know what that consist of. Students are admitted off from a point system, the higher the points the better chance you have of being selected for the program. Our points is based off how many prerequisites we have taken upon application, our gpa for those prerequisites we have taken. And finally our HESI or TEASE score. For those of you that haven't taken the HESI or TEASE we can plan a study group either online or in person. I'm a in my final class required to apply (AP I), in another school. I will have 7 courses completed upon application so that gives me 29 points for that. I have not taken the HESI yet so I don't know my points for that yet. I haven't been able to figure out my final gpa yet because I'm in this last course. But I hope to get to know some of you and I hope one day we will even be in class together!

Yeah my score right now is 64 points but I hope to bring that up after retaking the teas. It's encouraging to know people have gotten in with 54.

i have all pre reqs done. I wish they'd give more information also. I want to know the date I can start applying.

I was told April sometime. Givr them a call. Edna shields is really nice and she will be more than glad to answer questions

I just took my TEAS today! Does anyone know if the score sheet counts the percentage we got, or is it the percentile we scored in? FGCU takes the percentile so I was confused.

Did you guys hear, they are no longer offering a part time at Lee in the fall!! They are switching up the curriculum, and going to see how it goes with Full Time, and MIGHT have the part time available again in spring or fall of 2017! Straight from the mouth of the Nursing/Health Coordinator Pam Comstock.

Does that lower our chances of getting in since less options?

I have been attending this school part time since 2009 trying to complete pre-reqs to take the HESI. I am taking my final pre-req this semester and they already screwed us by switching to the TEAS. I paid the $110 to take the TEAS exam so that I could apply for the part time progran. I have so much time and effort wrapped up into that school it makes me sick. How can they just change things without notifying the people who have been busting their ass to try to make it into that program. Im a full time employee, full time mom/wife. Its unrealistic for me to be able to do the full time program. This really burst my bubble.
