LSU Fall 2018 BSN

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hello from California! Thought it was time to create a thread for those applying for LSU's 2018 Fall BSN program. This thread is set up for hopes of meeting (comparing info) with future students, and would love feedback from those that have applied before and or are currently in the LSU BSN program.

Couple of questions:

Where you from (though I am sure most are from the LA area, I am coming from San Diego, military spouse)?

Where are you currently going to school?

Have you taken the HESI yet? If so how was it? Study recommendations?

Are you currently an EMT/CNA/RNA or any other form health provider?

I am personally super excited, beyond nervous, and honestly have my head down working my bum off to get up to this point.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone. Also I know myself and others would GREATLY appreciate any information (average GPA's, HESI scores, personalities, interview process, essay questions) from current or past students.

Alrighty *fist bump*, we got this!

Yea. I just did a 4 paragraph essay

Was it exactly 2 pages or just your 4 paragraphs? I tried to do this but my last body paragraph was almost done and I only had like a sentence or two for my conclusion since I didn't finish. Dang guys I'm really anxious about all this stuff lol

I think you're overthinking it. My guess is they just want to see if you can articulate a thought and compose sentences.

Yeah you're probably right. I hope we all get accepted. It would be awesome go in knowing some people

Does anyone know what the average HESI score for LSU? I ended up with an 87% I only studied the day before as it was a last minute decision to apply. I have a 4.0 GPA and currently taking Microbiology and Sociology at UNO. The essay question threw me off and I didn't have enough time to go back through and spell check. I am so nervous :/

It's an 87%. And I'm in the same position as you GPA, HESI, and essay wise. I didn't finish my essay but I know I had little grammar errors. I should have a 4.0 GPA if they use my calc grade.

Hi everyone! I have also applied and did my interview and essay, and I am so very anxious! Does anyone have an idea about when we will find out??

I hope we get word soon. The board met Monday right?

I feel like they'll start making decisions next week and maybe we'll get our letters no later than the week after that.

They said about 4 weeks.

They said mid april so yea should be this upcoming week

Whew, I'm really anxious everyone. It feels like time has dilated waiting for these letters. Does anyone if we get the letters by email or physical mail?
