Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

Starting a new thread for any Georgia Highland applicants for the Fall 2013 nursing program. It's been a long road getting to this point - waiting to find out if IN for Fall 2013

Hey new applicant also now it's time for waiting game! We will have to wait til 2nd week of June until we here a response back! ;(

Trying to stay busy and not think about it...not doing a good job of that obviously! Very excited to be at this point, lots of hard work getting here and ready for a little pay-off....like an acceptance letter! lol

I also applied fr acceptance into the fall 2013 nursing program! The waiting is almost torture! We still have anywhere from 6-8 weeks before we will get letters! How does everyone feel they did?

I think I'm in a good position but who knows?! lol - Gotta hold onto the faith. I have all my prereqs done as of this semester + a few extra. 3.8 GPA and an 80 on the TEAS with 78 in Science and 88 in math. Crossing fingers :)

I've applied too! Currently at Chattahoochee tech finishing Micro. I'm hoping my transcript will make it on time to be counted. If not, I'll have to reapply in the spring.

Just a tidbit of information, I am also a Chattahoochee tech student, just got accepted to the GHC bridge program... the transcript thing was a nightmare, so take this advice.... GET ON THEIR BUTTS AND STAY ON THEM until they send your transcript. Speak to the registrar herself... They have the ability to send electronic transcripts right then and there with two clicks of the mouse. They don't tell people that because then everyone would be in their faces. They will help you if you implore them to, and let them know you are on a strict timeline! Hope this helps!!

Dose anyone know the average of points they accepted for spring 2013?

I'd like to know the Spring points cut off also.

svckxb01- are you liking Micro? I took it at CTC, loved the class.

Thank you for that advice. I am going to beg my teacher to post my grade on banner by Friday May 10. Then go to the Registrar and beg them to send right then! Lots of pleading! The good news is that GHC has a hold on my account waiting for this grade so they know it is coming!

Let's just say I've learned to like it. The nerve racking part was trying to identify my unknown. Now that I have that, smooth sailing. I have a teacher who is not very helpful. Had to learn a lot on my own and help from other classmates. The open lab assistant was terrific though!

I remember the terror all semester worrying about the unknowns....huge relief when done! Now to just finish up this semester ...only a couple more weeks to go. :)

I applied for Fall 2013... I'm still a little nervous. My GPA is decent (3.3) but I did really well on the TEAS (99th percentile - 100% math and 93% science). I'm just worried that because my GPA isn't a 3.5 or better that I might not get in. Even though my worksheet score is 1150. I emailed a nursing advisor and she said last year they accepted a worksheet score of 1000 or above. What is everyone else's worksheet score?

Sounds good, I was wondering what the average cutoff scores of those previously accepted. Mine is a 1261, pending expected grades for this semester. Studying for finals this week, Ive had about enough! lol

1261 is a great score! Like I said, last fall the minimum score was around 1000 (high 900's). Waiting sucks!

I think your worksheet score is great and you should be good to go with an 1150 worksheet score :)

They really are not sending letters out until mid June?? ouch!

Hi everybody!It's been a very long road getting to this point, so whether I get accepted or not I have no regrets. I applied as well for fall 2013, but I highly doubt that I will get accepted. I'm finishing up my last class now, medical microbiology. I love the class honestly!! My lab instructor was phenomenal!! My lecture professor is tough and challenging. The pressure is on for the last test and the final.

Good luck everyone!!
