Sentara BSN 2015

Published

Anyone out here applying or reapplying for the 2015?! I thought I'd just go ahead and get this thread started :)

Riverside offering a diploma is another factor for me not wanting to attend, but you do finish half a year sooner. ODU offers concurrent enrollment with Riverside. My sister-in-law graduated from Riverside a few years back and had nothing bad to say about Riverside. She works for Riverside now but will have to obtain her BSN within the next several years. I believe all new hires at Riverside who do not hold a BSN will have to obtain it within 5 years of employment or risk losing their job.

lakmom12-I don't think that will be a factor. I remember them telling us at open house that they put your GPA and TEAS score in a formula, and take the top 80-100 ( I think they said 100 but I can't remember) on the list. They don't care if you have a degree, experience working in the healthcare field, or have classes to complete before Jan., they just look at GPA and TEAS.

I wish we knew the algorithm so we knew what our score was and their average scores of people who got in! Life would be a little tiny but less hectic!

Sentara's 2014 accepted student averages were 3.7 for GPA and 84%+ for TEAS.

The minimum TEAS score for Riverside is 60% or 65%. I can't remember what was said at open house.

Of course this year's averages will depend on this year's applicant pool.

I took Spanish because it was one of the humanities courses we had to take. So I just decided to take Spanish since I already know Spanish lol.

Nice! That's why I'm taking women's studies. Easy class, but I wish I would have gone with the film appreciation instead lol

Ladies I just received my letter EARLY and I didn't make it in which sucks so much!!! I'm guessing because of my teas v score of course. Good luck to you all!
