Goodwin University Spring 2021

[Nicole Wade]

I wanted to make this for everyone applying this Spring! I attached the point guide to the post!

I just submitted my application and am waiting to sign up for my TEAS. What is everyone using to prepare? I have very bad test anxiety and horrible ADHD but have managed to make it this far with decent grades. What do you guys have for points? GPA’s? I’m really intimidated by the point system because I didn’t transfer in with 60+ credits! I read through some of the old posts for applicants and I’ve seen people being accepted with points as low as 15 so I’m crossing my fingers.

I KNOW!! It’s like, congrats on doing great and making the Deans list, an awesome score on the TEAS, and knocking all of the prerequisite classes out of the park...but you’re still not good enough. And forget all those classes you took elsewhere, they’re not important???

I didn’t have an Informed Delivery email this morning, so no mail for me today ☹️

Seriously! I found out I have lower points than previously said I had. Ggggrrrrr. I have a great GPA, and my TEAS is OK too...I hate the point system! I’ll have my BS end of this semester. With all my prerequisite and micro/AP’s done...with all A’s. But noooooo, points are a big deal! Wah. Negative Nancy pants are on today! It’s Thursday and I’m hoping for some news In the mail...please! 

How did you find that out? Where did you lose points? Now I’m freaking out about my points LOL

So they’re mailing them tomorrow? ?? That means they won’t come until like Tuesday ?? That’s too long of a wait!

I highly doubt it’ll come by Saturday as much as I want it too. Maybe earliest would be Monday!

Is the bridge a different program or do you guys all group in with regular nursing students with different career backgrounds?

They offer this to persons who are already LPNs I think. You get to skip the first 2 semesters and then join in the 3rd semester

Oh that’s awesome! I also only got 15 points so fingers crossed our GPAs help get us in to this cohort ?

[Ijustwantin]

Fingers, toes and eyes! LOL

I'm praying it is enough.  I did so well in my classes I can't believe I did do that well in the TEAS
