Thank you so much! How do you like FGC and how has your schedule been, if you don't mind me asking? Oh yes that extra semester has definitely been on my mind... but the shorter commute almost makes up for that I feel like! I am hardly 30 minutes from FGC and a solid hour from Sante Fe. :/ Thank you for responding, it is so hard with everything being shut down to communicate.

Hi everyone! How have you liked Sante Fe so far? I live about 45 minutes away and am a little worried about the commute, but have heard great things and just want to confirm that! Looking so forward to starting in the fall. ?

Those who got in how are you enjoying Sante Fe? ? I am currently at FGC and was accepted into both programs with about two weeks left to make my final decision. I have heard great things about Sante Fe, but first hand input is always great!

Hi everyone, I just got my acceptance! I can’t wait until you all hear as well. ?

Hi everyone! I will be applying to UNF for Fall 2020 also and I’m not sure what a competitive cumulative GPA would be considered? I have a 3.50 cumulative GPA and a 3.96 Pre-rec GPA, but I’m afraid my cumulative is low? If you guys don’t mind sharing I would appreciate it so much! ?

That would be amazing! I wonder if they are going to extend the application date since we aren’t able to test through all this going on? ?

I feel the same way! Are you local @Bquinlan and @Fawzia Elgamil? It would be great if y’all wanted to try to get together and prep for our TEAS retake and talk things over! I planned to attend the nurse workshop again coming up, but with everything going on with the virus it’s been canceled.

Thank you! 327 TEAS and 3.96 prereq GPA. Your TEAS is great! But I definitely understand, I’m hoping to improve my TEAS too since Fall is especially competitive. ?

It’s best to stay positive! So much happens between now and then, there is such a great chance! What was your TEAS score? I will be retaking mine also and reapplying for Fall, and I would be a transfer student myself.

@Bquinlan, I did not get in either and felt confident in my interview. ? @Courtney050, If you don’t mind me asking, what did you change most from fall to now? Did you improve your TEAS score or just focus more on the interview? Congratulations to everyone who got in and for who did not! I’m definitely not feeling it but am trying to remember it’s going to be okay and we are just a few months away from another shot at it!

I was 10:30 group 7! ? I planned to try to head to bed early and....sleep in a little bit.... Which has still yet to happen ? We are so much closer to Monday now though! It’s so nice having you guys here, my family is so done with me going over and over the details. ?

I still have no idea how I am going to get through this weekend, LOL! I hope everyone did great also. @Courtney050, what group were you in? I think we may have interviewed together!

So I haven’t actually been to the ballroom the workshop is in, but at “so you want to be a nurse...” the sign in table was before you walked into the room to sit down, so in the front when you walk in near the sign in table? Since sign in doesn’t start until 12:30 anyway, as long as we are there early I don’t think we will have a hard time finding each other. ☺️

Sounds good to me, See you guys tomorrow then! ☺️

OMG that is so true! ? What would a good color be or would you guys just want to meet at the front before sign in a little early (like 12:15 maybe)?

Hi NurseLex, Would love you meet you at the workshop also. ? I can’t believe it has snuck up so fast and is THIS SUNDAY. Looking so forward to meeting everyone!

I sent my RSVP/got confirmation back and have not gotten an invite to the workshop either.

Wow that makes three of us for 10:30! Whoever is attending the interview workshop we should plan to sit together! Congratulations to everyone also, this is so exciting! ☺️

Yay! We have the same slot! Are you going to be at the interview workshop? Would love to sit together if so!

Me too! I am at 10:30, what time slot are you? I’ve been soo nervous since invites went out a few days earlier last year...haha

@Aspiringcoffeeaddict Thank you for keeping in touch! I (last minute) decided to take it one last time today and scored a 329.3! Hopefully we all make it to interviews and can continue to help each other along the way. It’s been great so far!

Hey everyone, Just wanted to update, I only managed to improve my TEAS to a 310... We are getting so close I wish you all the best of luck, it really has been great having people who understand to speak with. ?

Hi Courtney! Oh no, my nerves get to me every time, I could not even imagine! I’ve been telling myself as long as I make it to interviews I will be okay (I am not a confident person either once so ever). I’ve absolutely loved being able to chat with everyone on here even if it’s not a whole bunch of people, I know my family is beyond tired of hearing me talk about this process...haha Congratulations on your score! If I don’t do as great as I’m hoping tomorrow I would love to study over break if you are local. I’ve had zero luck finding anyone else preparing for the TEAS either. I was thinking the same thing too if we made it to interviews and could group up at the workshop! I went to the “allnurses” event twice and managed to not meet anyone, but there was a ton of information to take in! I appreciate your response though and wish you the best of luck with everything coming up. ?

Jess1020, Thank you so much for the tips, I hope your test went amazing! Trying to keep calm myself for tomorrow. Haha

Hi Jess1022, That is a great TEAS score, but the best of luck on your retake and your class! Would you happen to have any study tips? I am retaking the TEAS the 20th (Friday) for the third time. Are you applying for Summer 2020 also?
