Piedmont College 2013 Nursing Applicants

Dwmoore · Jan 25, 2013

I received a call from Piedmont about an interview for their program. My overall TEAS was around 78%, that was because my science was fairly low due to the fact that I had not taken chemistry before that. My GPA is 4.0. I only applied to Piedmont and Brenau. I was accepted into Brenau. You should also try applying to the former MCG/GHSU, Georgia Regents University. Their app closes in a couple of weeks. Good luck to you!

I also got an interview! Good luck to you two!:) I was so nervous about getting a call! Now we just have to survive the interviews!

So, how did your interview go? I felt so intimidated, but I think it went well!

I was VERY nervous! Even though I think I gave good unique answers and I was prepared, I could tell my voice was shaky & my mouth was dry. I hope I didn't sound like a rambling idiot! I don't know how to feel about it overall, both interviewers were very nice & smiled, but I didn't really get much of a "vibe" one way or the other. I was really hoping I'd have a huge sense of relief when the interview process was over but I'm still just as anxious waiting for a letter haha. So what did you think about it? Also, did you say just Demorst campus or both? I said Athens 2nd choice but I really want to go to Demorst so I'm kind of wishing I said Demorest only.They told me 2-3 weeks, 1st week in march worst case scenario, so we will see! :)

I had my interview in Athens as well! With the dean and another woman! Talk about nerve racking! I got there early so they let me go early. I was scheduled for 1:20 and went at about 1:05ish. I am not sure how I feel either! :nailbiting: I gave the best answers I could but I am just not sure how I feel. The waiting game is so nerve-racking haha. But, hopefully we all did well! :)

I saw where you applied to GPC. I have as well, and also Kennesaw State.

My competitive GPA is 3.6, overall a 3.72. Teas 88.7

I have no idea what's competitive or good enough. Just praying I can get an interview.

They said last year the average Nursing GPA admitted was 3.4 to 3.5, Piedmont only looks at the Math & Reading scores of the TEAS, not the overall score, but I am not sure what is considered competitive in terms of those scores. I studied my BUTT off to get 90+ in both, to make up for my 3.44 GPA lol. Stephanie, e interviews for Piedmont were last week, did you have your interview then? Or are you talking about GPC? At this point I have all of my nerves riding on Piedmont, it's my 1st choice. Fingers crossed!!

Jesse, I had mine at Demorest with eye Dean too!! A lot of ppl II talked to said theirs was really relaxing and they felt like they nailed it...so I am glad Im not the only one who had mixed feelings!! I think it was just the nerves, like I was literally still not feeling normal the rest of the day! Haha. It's like a blur to me now! Lol. Are you hoping for Demorest or Athens?

Jesse_An · Feb 5, 2013

Hey Nicole! I am hoping for Athens, but I will go to Demorest if they need me to lol. I was so nervous in my interview, I tried to keep calm and for the most part I think I did, but I just don't know. Haha, I am trying not to over analyze because it seems like forever until we hear back! But, the dean was very nice, she really did have a comforting nature about her I felt, however I was still a little nervous. But hopefully we both did well! Fingers crossed! :)

Nicole0721 · Feb 5, 2013

Yeah she was so sweet! All of the faculty has been great, that's why I love that school! If they put us on opposite campuses maybe we can switch! Haha I want Demorest. I'll figure out how to send you a private message so we can talk :)
