No, I wasn't accepted for the Spring semester.

Hello, sorry this is years late LOL but I wanted to know if got accepted into the nursing program or did you retake the TEAS? Thank you !!

I'm not sure if official transcripts are needed prior to the deadline, but I submitted all of my official transcripts including HS anyway just to be safe. And for the TEAS, I took the exam last Monday and requested ATI to send over my score that day. It is currently Wednesday night and it still says they do not have my score in on the portal, however, ATI says the school should receive it about 2 hours after the request. I decided to email nursing admissions this morning to see if I am missing anything because I really do not know since the application portal doesn't update too often if at all for me. They haven't gotten back to me yet.

I just took the TEAS exam today and got a 71%. Not confident in that score but we shall see in a couple weeks if they accept it. Good luck everyone!

If you want to work right away, I say do it. ADN programs help students get their feet out the door quicker than traditional 4-year BSN programs, and they are much cheaper as well. ADN and BSN graduates both sit for the same NCLEX exam and go through the same foundation courses an RN must know. The only main difference is that BSN has additional training in leadership and management courses. Once you work as an RN with an ADN, many facilities also help pay for your BSN program which is about 1-2 years long and since you already established knowledge well into the field, it should come quite easy to finish. The cons about doing ADN is that depending on your location, many hospitals will prefer to hire someone with a BSN, but can grant you the position with your intention of going back to school to get your BSN. Also, RNs with BSN degrees earn more money on average than those with an ADN. I was accepted into an ABSN program last Summer after completely changing my career path a year or 2 ago. Im 29 with a bachelors in social science. The program was SO expensive, but I had to leave my 2 jobs in the education field to become a full time student. I failed 2 classes and was dismissed from the program. I fell in love with nursing and I don't want to give up, so I am currently in the process of applying to a community college that is well within my budget to get my ADN.

Hey! I am in the process of applying to the Spring 2025 semester as well. I have not taken the TEAS exam yet, but I will hopefully next week and I will lyk. An 82.7 is good!
