Sac State Nursing for Fall 2018- NEW CRITERIA

Published

Hey everyone! I am starting a new thread for the students applying for FALL 2018. I decided to apply for this coming fall 2018 instead of the previous (spring 2018). I wanted to finish my bio prereqs first. Anyone else here applying for Fall 2018 at Sac State? If so, what will be your new calculated points? gpa?

I am also curious about this! Since the new criteria has maximum 100 points I am curious how low (if it does) the cutoff points will go. For the past several years it has been around 75-78.

I will actually be applying for the Spring 2019 semester, but I'll post my stats here anyway.

TEAS 95

Have taken it twice with a 78 last time (I admit I crammed studied, won't do that again), I will have one more chance to take it and ideally I am aiming for a 95.

GPA: 3.88

I am repeating 3 classes, in the end I will have a 3.88 GPA.

Optional Criteria: 12 points.

Total (ideal!) Points: 80

That's awesome!

I know how you feel. I'm curious what the point cut off will be like.

If you looked at the point cutoff for Spring 2018, there is a large increase in average TEAS scores which makes me kind of nervous :/

Hi everyone!

Here are my stats so far.

Adjusted GPA:

if 2 grades omitted- 4.0 (50 pts)

all grades included with microbiology in progress- 3.917 (45 pts)

Teas: 84.3% (11pts) I will probably retake it lol

Optional: I believe I qualify for 4/5 options (16 pts)

If I choose to omit the two grades I will have 77 points but if not, I will have 72.

Hopefully retaking the teas well help boost my points.

Hey, guys!

Like mamakitty94, I'm not applying until SP19 but I have been keeping an eye on the threads to see where I sit. Tough break for the Spring '18 group, I would have been heartbroken. I wish the Fall applicants better luck... we'll see how it goes with the new criteria, I guess. Fingers crossed for you all!!!

Adjusted GPA: 4.0

TEAS: 92.0%

Extra criteria: +8 points

Total: 80 points

I am probably going to retake my TEAS... that's a decent score, but I don't feel it's quite competitive enough. Especially since I'm seeing others get more points in the Optional Criteria section.
