TEAS score
Hi! Current roseman student here, I got a 89% on my TEAS. I know people in my cohort who got much lower though. I think as long as you are above the national average or get a decent score you should be okay if the other aspects of your application are good! They just want to make sure you are good at taking tests as a large portion of nursing school especially Roseman's program is based on how well you can test.

Roseman Oct 2022 Cohort
Yep! So if you pass then you just have a few day break. It really depends on the block you are in. 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10 are really heavy on labs so when you have a lab/assessment you have to be on campus. I would say though other than block 2 which is every single day on campus its no more than 2-3 days per week. The day to day normally consists of a zoom lecture and then time to study

Roseman Oct 2022 Cohort
Hi! I am also a roseman student. I personally bought the textbooks that they gave you in the email but I would not do that again if I were to restart the program. I hardly used any of them other than the Fundies book and the Med Surg book. You could 100% get away with renting a digital or physical copy. The med surg book is the only book that will come back. You use that in block 5 and then again in block 10 so if you wanted to buy a book it would be that one. The fundamentals book you use block 2 & 3 and then never again.

Roseman Oct 2022 Cohort
Hi! I am also a current Roseman Student. Shoes - Quite a few students have those clove nursing shoes. I thought they were uncomfortable personally. Also, you only have to wear them to lab and clinical and I am 100% not going to wear mine when I finish school and start a job. I would get whatever ones are the cheapest but still white and non-permeable. Some of the professors on SJ campus in the beginning of your program are sticklers and you get called out if you do not have white shoes after the first day of lab. Stethoscope - Most students have at least a Littman 3 classic, I would get one that is not crappy because it is so hard to hear the blood pressure beats without. If you know you want to do ICU or something in the hospital that you know will require you to have a stethescope I would even say to get a cardiology or something a little nicer. If you want to do a field though that does not require that I would say something about the caliper of a Littman classic would work great. I have a case from amazon that works great for that and our pen lights that you have as well, it makes it easier to just chuck in your backpack or clinical bag. Tips -- You will get a mentor when you start. It will be the cohort right in front of you about 2-3 people you can ask questions to. They will be the most helpful in how the professors and the classes go. I would just make sure that you attend lectures on zoom and stay on top of it every single day so nothing builds up. If you get behind the courses are so fast paced it is hard to get caught back up. You can do it! If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
