Prereqs for NCAT ABSN program

Published

Hello Guys and Gals,

Just wanted to start a thread for those interesting in applying to NCAT ABSN program for 2018. I have about 5 prereqs to complete. I'm signed up to take Anatomy and Global Nursing this January. I'm wondering if there are any more out there like me so that we could possible start a support group :) AGGIE PRIDE!

Thank you !!!! Wow! Okay, so where do you find the ABSN curriculum? (The start and end dates). I've been looking everywhere for it !

Hey Everyone!

So I wanted to see what you guys thought are the chances of me being accepted into the ABSN program at NC A&T for the upcoming 2018 cohort. I've seen that many of you on this thread have already gotten in. Congrats!! I know you all are excited! Anyhow, here are my stats on my application, the good and the bad:

Healthcare Experience: CNA in Burn ICU, Medication Technician/CNA at an Assisted Living Facility

Volunteering: Monthly Commitments as a Spanish Volunteer at a Community Free Clinic

TEAS Test: 97.3% Individual Score; Subject Scores in the mid- 90s

Essay: Decent Enough I Would Hope

Prerequisites: Taken All Courses. Made A's and one B in Chemistry

Here is my downfall.

Cumulative Graduating GPA: 2.82

Now, let me explain this one a bit. So during undergrad I was a transfer student from UNCC. My GPA there was a 3.8. After transferring to UNC Chapel Hill, my new GPA was a 2.82. I graduated from there. Therefore, my classes from UNCC aren't factored into this GPA which puts me at this abysmal GPA. My hopes are that they take all of my courses and average them giving me a GPA of 3.3. What do you guys think? Is anyone else applying having been a transfer student? If so, how was your experience? Also, where is everyone living? If I do get into the program, I will be living in Mebane, NC which is about a 30 minute drive from Greensboro. Would anyone want to carpool and such?

Also, if it makes any difference, I am a male Hispanic applicant. Maybe this will give me a bit of an edge in the application. Anyways, give me some tips, comments, or thoughts!

Sorry just to make sure, they have not yet confirmed about your acceptance right? Does Not mean that they have rejected you.
