I'm not sure what they accepted but I was sitting right at a 3.0. I will tell you I already have a degree.. I'm not sure if that helped me or not. I scored decently on the TEAS.. Nothing exceptional but not horrible. I would say you have a good chance at Hattiesburg. It's accelerated too! I'm not sure if requirements vary by campus or not..

I applied to the University of Memphis as well but didn't get in either!! My friend is currently in the program at U Of M so I hear all the horror stories and honestly I think we dodged a bullet; they don't seem to be very organized. I'll let you know what I think about William Carey. I'll be attending the Hattiesburg campus though.. Not sure how different it will be from the campus you're planning to attend.

I'm so glad to hear that!! Thanks:) I already love the people in the office, they have been so sweet and helpful!

Thanks and congrats to your wife as well. I am doing the fast track as well! I agree, I wish we had been given more notice. I am moving from TN so the short notice is not ideal but I am grateful to have been accepted! I will be attending the Hattiesburg campus. What campus will your wife be at?

Yes. I wasn't expecting to hear anything till next week but I received my acceptance letter on Monday. Hopefully you will hear something soon!

Anyone starting the nursing program this Spring at William Carey?!? I am moving to Hattiesburg from out of state to attend so Im hoping to meet a few people before we start:)

Hey!! I can definitely relate to your frustrations. It's very disheartening when you are punished for mistakes you made when you were young. I am also applying for the Spring 2013 semester at LSON. I am nervous because from what I have heard it is based almost purely on GPA which seems a little unfair considering I will be compared to students that have only completed a few semesters of college... I am sitting right around a 3.0 but the fact that I stuck college out and finished my degree doesn't seem to mean anything in the Nursing School world:( Hopefully it will all work out. Keep your head up and maybe we will All be in School together in the Spring:)
