If you’ve met the requirements, then why not apply and see what happens? You’ll have to get your BSN eventually regardless if you want to become/stay employed at a hospital (and many other facilities) in CT, and if you could jump right into doing that then you’d say yourself time and money in the end. Why are you having reservations about it? If you don’t get into their program, you have NVCC as a back-up.

That’s great! I’m sure they’ll call you off the list. Congrats!

I got the email at 9:37

Just found out I’m 60 out of 222 on gateway’s waitlist. Probably too high. I got into St. Vincent’s and am waiting to hear from U of Bridgeport.

I just submitted mine to Gateway too. I have all my prereqs and coreqs done except for AP2 and sociology which I'll be taking in the Spring. 3.41 GPA, 74.7 TEAS score. Good luck to you!

I decided against it. It would be online; everything is online currently. Thanks for responding though

I have a 3.37 nursing GPA and all A’s and B’s except for my math. I took intermediate algebra 3 times and never got above a D, I took intro to stats and got a C+. If I could pull an A in stats that would bring me to a 3.55. But this would also be an accelerated 2 week Winter class... should I bother?

I am not sure how the transcripts situation works, but you could email someone in admissions or nursing dept. to see. I’m applying this round too. Good luck!

Hi! I’m considering applying to U of B this next application cycle and I’d love to know stats of people who have gotten in, if you don’t mind sharing. Thanks!

Well, I can say the people I know who did Yale’s program have paid off their debt. Those who did Uconn’s have not. Don’t know why exactly or if that even holds value to say LOL, just something I’ve noticed.

I’m in Southern CT. We did really well (compared to most) with PPE throughout the pandemic despite having 400 Covid cases in the hospital at one point. We’re back to using PPE as normal and have been for a few months.

Yeah, all around the state (CT) it’s around $110-120. I assume the price is jacked up because it’s being proctored remotely via Proctorio. Until recently, only testing centers have had available exam dates and they all cost $117. My school just put up 2 dates (which sold out immediately) and they were $70, if I’m not mistaken. Still more than the $50 my school’s website states it would be. One of my coworkers was telling me last night she only had to pay $35 to take hers there a few years ago. Crazy.

I think the problem might be that it’s not allowing me to enter my institution like it has in the past. It shows me exam dates in different towns, but none are at any of the colleges.

Can anyone tell me how much it cost for them to take the TEAS? I went to sign up and the price is $117. On Gateway’s website, they claim it’s only $50. Did the price increase due to the pandemic, or does Gateway offer some sort of discount or something? It’s odd to me that the price is more than double what they tell us it is.

Does anyone know if the price for the ATI TEAS increased? My school claimed it would only cost $50, but when I go to sign up, they want at least 100, I think it’s $117 exactly. Is this due to Covid or was my school just wrong? I was so shocked to see that it’s double the price I thought it was because I was considering taking it soon and then possibly taking it again later on after improving in whatever areas the first score would show I’m lacking in.
