I submitted my app;ication. Now I wait...again.

I have completed all required and other classes. The only thing Im missing is a humanities but its not required for admission just for graduation once in the program. I have the rest of the other classes to get extra points.

Thanks for this! also, what is the time limit for teas scores? Meaning how old can they be to use them?Do you know?

Do you think alot of people take the additional cor requisites for extra points?

Honestly I dont know because everyone situation is different. In regards to the TEAS score they are good for Jan-Dec of the year and only 3 attempts. The main thing is that you meet the minimum requirements: classes, and TEAS scores.

Yes if you are not applying until Jan then the Sept 11 score wont count. Wait until Jan to take it. Also you have to wait atleast 30 days between each attempt.

I believe scores are good for the application year you are applying. Check out the above links. You will still have 3 attempts next year.

Edit- The first link says scores are good for 3 years. So you should be good but you will still have 3 attempts just in case you need them. Good luck

Good luck everyone!

Kind of a random question, but what are the assignments like in Nursing school? Are there essays or is it mostly memorizing for exams?

Thanks

I think once we all learn our fate, we should all go out for a drink and get to know each other! If we get in, we will be spending a lot of time together, after all! Thoughts? ?

I’m down! I’m kind of new to the area, so it would be really cool to get to know everyone!

^ Oops. Excuse me for that completely random post ?

Fellow Spring 2020 applicant here as well. I am curious to hear what others have based on the selection criteria. Perhaps we can streamline the process and make it easier for current/future applicants.

• Prerequisites: BIO 141, PSY 230, TEAS
• Co-requisites: BIO 142, BIO 150, CST and Humanities elective
• When did you apply?

Im down too and meet up!

As far as what I have grade and score wise, I'll just say that I met all criteria. Call me superstitious but this round I don't want to indulge my scores until I get that acceptance letter lol. It wont matter if Im not selected. All future applicants need to know is try your absolute hardest to meet the requirements and you should be ok. Although, sometimes the programs makes exceptions based on availability of open seats. I have seen people get in just under the requirement just as the ones that are at the very top of the score and grade category.
