Nursing program acceptance question

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

I have questions all the way around. I called the Nursing department and talked to the secretary to try and find out about when the applications open up for the part time evening RN program and couldn't get a straight answer, I was only told to keep watching the Nursing page for the announcement. To at least know a time frame would have been nice. I'm trying to build an estimate of when I may be able to graduate, knowing this information would help also knowing how long it actually takes to get accepted would be nice too. I have heard from so many that it took them two years to just get in the program from the time they started applying. This has me seriously stressed since I'm already 50 this year. I have all my biology classes out of the way, finished math and will take English this semester. I still haven't taken the teas yet, I plan to study for it and test this summer. I worry waiting to do the TEAS this summer may be a mistake since it will push my eligibility to apply out to 2016.

Does anyone know approximately when they open up applications and how long it usually takes to get in?

Nobody here is going to be able to answer that question, since it's highly dependent upon how the individual school or program does things.

Depends on your school. My school deadline for Fall 2015 was December 15, 2014. So as long as all your info was submitted by that date, you could turn in your application whenever. I'd be a little worried in the school if they can't give you details on when to apply. Usually all that info is clearly spelled in on th website

I realized after I posted this I should have put it in the students forum, and put the name of the college. I can't seem to find an option to sort for which state, not sure if there is one.
