I will be applying to the nursing program this Fall 2018. Is there anyone who was accepted the last two semesters? If so, what was your prerequisite GPA and what campus did you apply/get accepted to?
If you are applying this same semester what is your GPA and have you completed all nine of the prerequisite courses?
I am trying to determine my chances on getting into this program feel free to leave any advice and comments :)
I went to an info session last Tuesday and this is what she said
- At the time they had received 300 applications. There were people who applied though who weren't necessarily qualified, some didn't even have all the prereq's or minimum gpa. She thought there were so many this time because they got rid of the TEAS requirement. Because of that she thought next fall they might add some other kind of admission requirement.
- 140 applicants so far had all prereq's and gen eds completed, so they automatically have admission priority. There are 80 seats available, 40 at each campus, so there will probably be people with all 9 classes who still won't get in. This was also 1 week before the deadline so that number has probably gone up.
- They will rank by prereq gpa first, and then look at overall gpa from there. She said if you have a 3.0 you probably won't get in, a 4.0 you probably will be coming in. But anywhere between that, like a 3.3 or 3.2, she couldn't guess. Someone also asked how many applicants in the past have had 4.0 and she said not a lot, maybe a few.
When I attended the information session, she said Bradenton was very competitive, however, if you had all requirements completed and there was a seat available at Venice, it would be offered to the Bradenton applicant if all selected location seats are filled (she said they give you about a day or two to decide). With that being said, the 25th can't come any sooner. I'm continuously checking my email several times a day- you know, just in case lol. All 9 classes are completed with pre-req gpa 4.0 and over all is 3.9 but I'm still shaking in my boots! I'm praying for a seat! Hope we all get accepted. Best of luck to all!
