Kennesaw State Nursing Spring 2018

Published

Anyone else out there applying to KSU's nursing program for Spring admission? Post your stats and whether you are applying for accelerated or traditional. I just submitted my application for traditional.

My stats are:

Overall GPA: 4.0

5/7 GPA: 4.0

7/12 GPA: 4.0

TEAS: 88%

Competitive Score: 87.6/90

****Total GPA- 20 points (multiply your GPA by 20 then divide by 4)

Top 5/7 - 30 points (math and science GPA only, multiplied by 30 then divide by 4)

Top 7/12-20 points (same as total GPA calculation)

TEAS 20 points - multiply by 20 then divide by 100

This gives you your competitive score

It's definitely this week or next, because I have early registration for Spring classes in early October...

The committee has met so it's just a matter of time. Ksu screwed me over again by just now telling me I wasn't an active student so good luck to everyone else.

That's very strange. How are you not an active student, but you can apply to the nursing program on Owl Express?

Wondering the same. I'm not technically a KSU student because I'm not taking classes there, but I had to be accepted to the university before I could apply to the nursing program.

I haven't been "active" in 3 semesters (I'm a transfer student) and there's apparently a rule that says if you aren't you're inactive. And I asked why it was possible for me to apply so they just now put in a safeguard for students who need to reapply. My owl Express says I'm an active student though so I'm just not sure how I was supposed to know

I think that's normally how it goes. At many schools, you have to apply and be accepted to be an "active" student in order to apply to their nursing program, even if you are not taking classes. This status lasts for some amount of time (depending on school). If you are not taking classes, it eventually expires and you have to reapply to be considered "active" again.

That really sucks. Is there any way you can appeal that?

I haven't ever heard of that and was never told that by an advisor. There's no indications or holds on my account. Knowing about it now it makes sense but there was no way for me to know. There's no way to appeal it since the committee has already made their decisions

Wow. I'm in the same boat I've applied there was accepted to KSU but I'm a student at GSU. How does one know if they are active or not.

If you applied recently you're fine

I saw on last years Spring 2018 there were multiple people that had lower GPA and TEAS than me, but I am pretty sure it is getting more and more competitive by the years. Anticipation is killing me

Me too. I look at my scores and I would have got in last spring, but then I'm still worried because it could easily be more competitive than last year

.

What email will they use to notify us? Ksu or personal email?
