I'm getting ready to apply and just took my TEAS V. Didn't do as well as I would have liked. I'm a litle bummed and was wondering was some of the nursing students TEAS V and overall points were for this upcoming Fall 2013 year now that the lowered the number of students to 40.

Thanks :specs:

Dont we have to fit uniforms first before we can order? Or it doesnt matter?

Im confused with the packet they gave. Especially on the vaccines section!

Yup Tucaymarissa, we don't have to order until Dec 3 and we can fit first before we make the order. Just saying if we all work together we can save a bit of money. :)

Not looking forward to all the costs :(

They never gave an estimate of how much everything will cost for the program! Im guessing about less than 5k for the whole prog. But with bogg waiver fee and financial aid its pretty much free! Im worried about cost of living for me tho coz im from sac.

Yeah lets order together so we can get discount!

Yah, didja check out the crazy $438 for ATI we have to pay? That's not including the books we have to purchase. I think uniforms will be about $150 ish (estimating). Background: $87. Skills Lab Kit: $152. One probably needs a stethoscope. Transportation of gas. Patches on uniform. Eeekkz. Well, hope everybody has saved a bit for this program since it all adds up.

Ik wth! In sac city they estimated at least 4k for the whole program, doesnt include cost of living tho. Im worried about the vaccination section requirement. If you have tuition waiver it will def cut out the cost.

Are you from stockton? If you are, what are the SAFE places you would recommend to live at?

Yup, I just applied for the BOG waiver. That was easy. :)

I'm not from stockton, sorry, couldn't be much of a help there. But definitely do your research because I think there are some places in Stockton that is ghetto and you don't want to be in those areas (not saying Stockton is all ghetto, just some parts).

There are several safer areas that might appeal as well as many areas to avoid. Also, lots of nice areas with pockets of not so nice areas. Depends on if you are looking for a house or an apartment. There are also options around UOP renting a room with other students who go to the University.

I had the same problem with not getting the email, and it was also due to lack of space in my email... go figure!!! my score was 61.5 and I was accepted into the program thank God!!!! Hope that helps for those reading that are hoping for next semester, as I used this site in previous years just to get an idea of what I could expect and if I had a shot. My points breakdown are towards the beginning of the thread if interested. :) hope that helps and gooood luck to all applying in the future!!!

I'm totally interested in getting together to find anyway to cut costs. We should exchange info. Is there a FB page yet??

Hi guys! So i didn't get an email yesterday. I called today. They were really helpful. The reason I didn't get an email was due to my email box being overfilled. I had to clear space for my email. Then I got the email after a few email exchanges to the Health Science Apps @ delta email. I got in. :) It was an email that has this big fat packet as an attachment. So, for those who have the problem - clear your email, delete emails that are huge and then give nursing office a call and tell them to resend the notification to you guys.

Congrats to those who made it! *yippee*

I was looking at uniforms and my thought is it'd be cheaper if we all bought as a group so we can save on shipping as well as the 20% discount (You get 20% discount on the 2nd and more items, just not the first.) So it would be to our advantage if there was one transaction. I am more than happy to make the transaction if you guys are interested in paying me back via cash or paypal.

And I would hope someone start a facebook page. :)

Stats:

I got 86.7 on TEAS. I got A in Physio, B in Anatomy, A in Micro (2nd time I repeated it after 10 years ago of C for Micro (lecture) and B+ for lab). I don't know how they calculate my GPA due to my repeat of micro class (i don't know if they include both grades or just scrap my bad grades 10 years ago). I got 3.4 GPA for NUT & ENG (A in Nut and B in Eng). Got a bachelors. Speak a language. And had another set of points of special life circumstance category. Sorry, don't know if that helps you guys or not.
