Hello, Im starting the end of August as well and a bit nervous. Are you working while going to school. I work nights at a psych hospital it isn't too busy but the sleep deprivation is what I'm nervous about since classes are in the mornings. I am planning on moving to prn and doing two nights a week. Has anyone had the same struggle? How did you cope?

I don't know how they figure in accepting applicants to FGCU because I see that there are people here that did better than I in the TEAS and got denied. I really don't think the numbers are all that gets you in. For me this is my first time applying to the fall 2017 BSN program, I am a non-traditional student which means I'm older currently work as a mental health tech and was majoring in psych at fgcu. Switch directions this past year and finished my pre-reqs with a 3.4 GPA, overall 3.72. My TEAS score was a 74 and i was accepted into the program. I wish everyone luck and do not get discouraged.

@ninav30 I got in for the Fall with a 3.4 gpa on prereq's and an overall GPA of 3.7 but i had a lower TEAS score of 74. I definitely do not know what they factor in deciding because it seems everyone had similar numbers. I feel maybe its also what classes you have taken, previously. I was majoring in psych and recently switched to nursing, making psych my minor, but who really knows. I wish you the best of luck
