Hey peers,
I wanted to start a thread for pre-nursing students who applied for admissions into the spring of 2020 program. I was denied for admissions into the Fall of 2019 and my application was updated by the admin for consideration for the spring semester. I am re-taking the TEAS-exam over this summer to boost my chances as only 60 students are selected for the spring and 80 for the fall.
My stats when I applied for the Fall of 2019 was:
3.8- General Ed
3.45- Science
3.72-Overall GPA
Teas- 70.5%
My Stats for the Spring of 2020
3.88-General Ed
3.57-Science
3.74-Overall GPA
Teas- Retaking
As of the Summer of 2019- I will have all nursing pre-requisites complete, including the new Psych 2103- Intro to human development. I just graduated on the 7th with my Associate of Science degree with high honors but it seems to me that having all pre-reqs complete and a high gpa doesn't guarantee admissions as long as your Teas score and science gpa is competitive.
Thereon, share your stats ladies and keep God in your prayer as he has chosen us to pick this field and nursing is very rewarding, working as CNA and Medtech for 4 years has really opened my love for the field. Yes at times the workload is very heavy and draining but I wouldn't give up the time I spent with my patients,nurses and their family members for the world. Caring for others is my calling and I know God called each of us for this ?

Atlanta tech program is accredited my cousin goes there and I know someone who went there for prereqs and applied with us because of this same reason. Best of luck to you, and I know we'll both get in with the next round.
Sorry for the bad info on the acceptance packets guys! They must have changed that since last semester. I know that would've been heartbreaking to see...
My husband still hasn't checked our mail yet so not sure if I have any news yet. Congrats to those of you that got in, and there is still hope for those with a denial! I recommend contacting Renee about it and asking what you can improve for next time. She's very good with sharing that info! Or you'll get lucky like me, and find out that you got a denial letter by mistake!
And Chattahoochee Tech has very similar requirements to Perimeter. It was my backup option, since other places have such different requirements.

Sorry I meant to say Atlanta tech isn't accredited. No, I also applied to Middle Ga State and Kennesaw but I won't hear back from those until October which also feels like forever. I had my heart set on BSN but not at the cost of Chamberlin. Are you considering them?

The way I see it is at the end of the day we're all going to be the same nurse. The patients don't care what program we go to, our teas score, or our GPA all they care about is feeling better and trusting that their nurse knows what he/she is doing so if that where your heart is I say go for it.

@Jeanie Devine Congratulations!!! My heart sank when I saw mine was a regular sized envelope. I am so excited!

@Kuvesh86 thank you! Don't give up. I hear that they send out more letters again in November so stay positive!
My stats are:
3.91 overall GPA
4.0 science GPA
83.3 TEAS
@Kuvesh86 and @Tonisha90 add me to your list... I didn't get in either. Maybe we'll make it in the next go around. Hopefully November will be our month. Congrats once again to those who did get in.

Hey girls what are your stats. My best friend is in the program and honestly I feel like I don’t have to the GPA since the program is so competitive.
