Who all has applied to Kennesaw for BSN Fall 2014 entry?

Probably have more luck in the Georgia forum.

I applied there but do you know when we hear about acceptances? And does anyone know the average TEAS/GPA?

I found another forum that other people had stated that they were told acceptance letters were going to be mailed mid-march/april. As far as the average TEAS and GPA, it varies. I have read about people with TEAS scores in the 70s accepted, and I have heard stories of people with TEAS scores in the 90s get rejected. I do know that Kennesaw will no longer be doing interviews as part of the application process, so I guess it is all about your TEAS score and GPA. As long as you applied you have a shot!

Yeah my gpa and teas are average.. A 3.4 overall and 80 in the TEAS but I go to the university of South Carolina as a pre nursing major so maybe that carries some weight?

I really do not know what carries weight with them. I honestly think its strictly GPA and TEAS

KSU usually has about 1000 applicants and only accepts around 120. It is very competitive. They also take preference to KSU students if applicants are close.

Do you know anything about the accelerated program as far as number of applicants and how competitive?

klm332 · Feb 25, 2014

I do not know much about the accelerated program. I know that accelerated students are counted in the 120 spots that they do have. It is usually something like 80 traditional and 40 accelerated spots.

I applied to the accelerated program for the fall of 2014. I received a 92 on the TEAS but my overall GPA from Georgia Tech is a 3.1. I heard from advising that they weigh the GPA of the prerequisites more heavily than your overall transferred GPA. I really hope this is the case! In addition, did I read correctly that they are no longer doing interviews?

Yeah there is no more interviews. There is actually another thread on here for KSU nursing for fall 2014 that has a lot more comments. You should check out that thread.
