Hi and thanks for responding. I am married already and have two girls 5 and 3. My oldest goes to kindergarten and the youngest is home with me all day. I have been very fortunate to have a husband who wants to have me home and fulfill my dreams as much as I can. If I am not accepted this time like I said in the other post I will be retaking the TEAS along with applying for both programs. My youngest will be able to go to VPK so I will be able to take the classes for either program throughout the day with more ease than with having to put the youngest in daycare (cost wise its cheaper when she is 4 because VPK is fre). I am determined to do this because when I was having my second child I wanted to do what those nurses were doing, help bring life into this world. Also three months after I had surgery to have my gallbladder taken out and my nurses were accompanied by PHCC nursing students who were doing there clincals, so that was another boost towards doing this. Sorry for all the backstory, but when you put your mind to it anything is possible. surfergirl: county residency is counted as a percentage for your overall score they compile. Your score consists of TEAS, overall GPA, pre request GPA, and residency. Those who are residents receive 5 more percent if I am not mistaken. hope this helps! good luck

Hi everyone! I have too have also applied for the2014 Spring RN program. I have been applying to the program the last three semesters Fall 2012, Spring 2013, Fall 2013 and I have applied to the Spring 2014. I have been denied for the RN program every time and I have a GPA of 3.3 and a TEAS of 70% (this was my best out of two attempts, first one got a 66% studying just the TEAS book and 70% a month later after looking into other ways to supplement the book). For Fall 2013, I applied to both the LPN and the RN program and was chosen for the LPN as an alternate, and then chosen for the program once someone did not accept the LPN seat. I did not take the LPN seat because I have completed all the coursework for the RN program and all that would be left for me to do is the Nursing program classes and clinicals. LPN route for me would be the scenic route to RN and RN is the straight path. If not accepted this time around, I will be trying to take the TEAS test again before the next deadline for Fall 2014. Good luck to everyone who has applied and best wishes!
