I GOT IN and start this August! Thank you all for the encouraging words!

Congratulations! I too got in for Fall 2017! I am super nervous but excited to begin this new journey!

Congratulations!!!!!!!

I am so nervous, they still have not received my transcripts and I sent them at the beginning of this month.

For me, the thing I think about most is continuing education. I am always taking a class to further my education in nursing and if you want to be able to do that, you can't with this job. You will have NO time to study or go to class because you have to be there all the time. This would be a good opportunity maybe for a married couple or someone who is willing to dedicate their lives to this job. You are young, and I always encourage people to keep up with their education, always move forward. You are on this website so I am going to assume you want a future in nursing. Nursing school, college in general are very time consuming tasks that may not go so well with this sort of job. Look at all aspects of your life and see if this is a good fit for you. Do not worry, you'll make more money down the road when you finish your education.

Who are you replying to reallynervous? Has anyone received acceptance letters yet? I know the time is coming up very soon...

My mother says the same thing about Nursing school, it was one of the hardest things she's had to do. I believe that 100%. I will keep your advice in mind, especially embracing challenges. That can be hard for anyone but hard work pays off, I have seen that firsthand.

Thank you so much for your words. I have always had the "Get it done" mentality but this process is pretty emotional. I appreciate you taking the time to reply, it brought me to tears because I envisioned myself at the finish line. One day I will be there and you are right, it's going to feel so good. This moment in time, the uncertainty of which program will accept me is a bit of a roller coaster ride but it is temporary. I agree with you on mentality, I am learning it is super important to keep your head straight in any circumstance. Thank you for your insight, it is appreciated x100.

I am completely done with prerequisites. I have applied to only two programs so far, and got my first rejection letter. My stats: took TEAS V twice, highest score was a 74% (Not good at all) and my prerequisite GPA is 3.67. I am literally in tears because as I am reading more and more about requirements for different nursing schools, some seem so out of reach! I knew this field was competitive but I am gaining more and more frustration and stress as I realize it is going to be pretty tough to get into nursing school. I worked my butt off for this and I thought I wanted it so bad!! I know deep down I still do and I have to remind myself why I am doing this, but this whole process really has me feeling every single emotion. I am on the verge of tears because I just want to get in SOMEWHERE. I think the application process and applying to different programs really has me on my toes, and I know I can't be the only one feeling this way. It's like one minute I'm excited and happy that I finished my pre-reqs and the next minute I'm questioning if this is for me because it seems like my hard work wasn't as good as I thought. . . I haven't even been accepted into a program yet and I am feeling so overwhelmed with emotion. Will I be good enough for this? Can I do this? I am one of the most positive people, and I am usually the one encouraging others but this process has me flipped upside down. I know I am GOOD enough but these rejection letters really stab my self confidence.

I have not signed up for orientation. Are you talking about the general new transfer student orientation? I have to make an appointment with the nursing division. I am nervous...not sure what to do next. I am attending csub for the first time this fall.

I am following this post because I am curious myself. I took the TEAS V twice already with the highest score of a 74%. I know my score needs to be much higher but before I retake it, I am curious how the new version will be, and if my TEAS V results will no longer be valid if TEAS 6 is in effect. I'm very concerned how this will play out for people like myself who have taken the TEAS V a couple of times and are on their last attempt...

Hi, I recently submitted my Fall 2016 BSN application and I am a little bummed that I only have 43 primary points. My GPA is a 3.53 and a 3.62 for math and science. My TEAS was a 74%. I am really nervous I won't get in. I took the TEAS twice already....I have one more shot but sadly after August, the TEAS exam is changing so I do not know what to expect. Does anyone know what the lowest amount of points was that got accepted into the Program?
