Update... I passed! Such a relief!

I took the NCLEX-RN yesterday (Tuesday 6/29) at 1pm. It took me about 90 minutes and shut off at the minimum of 75 questions. I had 33 SATA!! I did not do the sample questions at the end. I tried the Pearson Vue trick a couple of hours after getting the email and got the "results on hold" pop-up. It has been over 24 hrs and the PVT is still saying the same thing, and my license has yet to appear on the BON site. The testing site did lose power for a second when I was a little over halfway through. It took them a few minutes to go around and log everyone back in. From what I've read online, they are probably reviewing my exam because of the technical issue..? Has anyone ever failed in the minimum with 33 SATA? I'm dying of stress for the 48 hr mark tomorrow afternoon. I just need to know!?

I took Nutrition and Pathophysiology through Portage. VERY easy. Do at your own pace. I got A's in both classes without any effort.

Awesome! Yes I just RSVP'd!

I found out about March 5th. I heard back after only a couple weeks. But I was in contact with Megan Norlfeet a lot a few months prior about applying. Contact her, she is very nice and helpful. Honestly, every staff I have talked with so far has been so incredibly helpful and friendly. So excited! Seems like a really good team of educators.

Who else is admitted to the cohort that begins this Summer? So excited!

Hello! I will be joining the Summer 2020 class from Tampa! Anyone else in Tampa or nearby?? Anyone have good sources for scholarships & aid that isn't a federal loan? Thanks!

Just want to double check with those that have gotten decisions... My status finally changed today to decision made, but no email assigned or background check form listed. Were there people who got accepted but didnt get an email or background check right away? When Nori called me on Monday she stated that my admissions paperwork is on its way so I am hoping that means something.

Okay, I have only gotten the phone call saying to expect admissions documents. My status has not been updated on the AU website.

I got a call this morning from someone from the college of nursing letting me know that I should expect admissions paperwork in the mail within the next 2 weeks. I'm assuming that's a good thing then? For everyone who has gotten the background check form... Did that come from admissions or from the nursing program?

Hello! I am applying to nursing schools and want to get some suggestions of schools I should look into. I currently have a B.S. in animal science from 2015, so anything accelerated is ideal. I have taken both the GRE & TEAS and have only 2 pre-requisites to complete this coming spring. Looking to start Summer or Fall 2019. I am located in Aiken SC. I have already submitted applications to Augusta University (Augusta, GA) for both the MSN-CNL and BSN programs. I am really hoping to get in to AU, but I believe in backup plans. I have also looked at Northeastern University's Charlotte, NC campus ABSN program and like it so far. I have spoken to someone from South University's (Columbia, SC) ABSN program but the reveiws I have read are awful. USC Aiken is right down the road, but their curriculum looks like it would take over 2 years to complete a BSN. Let me know suggestions!

This was probably already asked but.. My NursingCAS status says verified. Will it change to Under Review on NursingCAS or the AU website? On AUs website it says incomplete because of GRE scores and a transcript, but all of that was received according to NursingCAS.

Question - does my GPA from undergraduate get combined with GPA from the pre-requisite courses I have taken this year?

I know that the acceptance rate was mentioned earlier in the thread.. But are there any other statistics on acceptance? Of those that did not get accepted what ranges were their GPA, test scores, date application submitted, etc... Just out of curiosity.

Hello! I am almost ready to submit my application.. for those than are currently in the program my question is - does timing of application submission make any difference? I am currently in CNA training with 4 weeks lefr. I kind of want to wait until I get the certification and apply for work to mention it in my applicstion. Let me know thoughts! Thank you!
