National University Cohort 64

[LC912]

Hi everyone,

I thought I'd start a thread since I hadn't seen one yet.

I plan on applying for the May application date, however I need to retake the TEAS exam. With all testing centers being closed right now, does anyone have any insight as to how/where I can retake the exam? I've heard some places may provide remote testing, but nothing for certain.

Thanks

Hey majoves,

if you have a 2.75 cumulative GPA you are able to apply. They only look at your science and math GPA for admission though. So if you have a 2.75 GPA but all As and Bs in your stats, A&P, and micro courses, you should be good. You could always retake those classes to boost your prereq GPA too. That part is 40% of your “points” to get in.

40% is the TEAS. So if you have a great TEAS that’s really helpful as well!

If you are among the top 90 applicants from these two areas, you’ll be invited for an interview. The interview makes up the last 20% of the criteria to get in.

I was really drawn to NU because I could get a bachelors degree in the time it would take me to get an associates at a community college. Other BSN programs are 3-4 years and have more prerequisite requirements. I talked to a few people who attended the nursing program at NU and had excellent experiences, and really enjoyed the once course at a time format.

hope that helps ? good luck!

Thank you for that information!

I am a little nervous about the science portion as I got C's in them...So I'm hoping to do well on my TEAS to at least compensate for it. And I was also drawn to NU for the same reason. They have minimal prerequisite requirements in comparison to other schools.

Do you know how many they accept for each cohort and if you're denied for that specific time if you can reapply for a different cohort?

Thank you again for the thorough reply!

I believe based on other people’s answers, they interview top 90 but only 48 get in.

National University only allows 3 attempts total to apply for the nursing program.

Have you applied or thinking of applying?

I'm hoping to get in the program.. I really do want to be a nurse ?

If I take the TEAS on Monday June 29th would it be too late to submit to National before the deadline?

I think I got my results the same day so I wouldn’t think so!

Thank you very much. I wasn’t sure if it took longer for ATI to send electronically to National.

Hello everyone,

who has taken their TEAS online? Is it proctored by a person watching us all the time or do they lock the computer screen?

Also, do you guys think the A&B practice assessments had some of the actual TEAS exam questions?

Thanks

Hello there!

Yes. If it is an online proctored test, then they do watch you online. They basically have access to your screen and is proctoring your screen. You also have to bring your camera/computer to show your testing area.

The assessments A & B may have similar questions, but not exact questions. I have taken it a couple times and I haven't seen the same exact questions.
Hope that answers your question ?

I just retook my TEAS this morning and submitted my score - 89.3%.

About one week left until we found out! I'm super nervous y'all. How's everyone else feeling?

Hi,

Does anyone know what the grading point system is for the TEAS scores? For example an %80 is worth how many points?
