Hi everyone! I’m starting this thread so we can share our application criteria points with each other! I just turned in my application today. I have between 85 and 88 points. I have 3 B’s on my science prerequisites :((, 4.0 gpa for all the general Ed courses. I have fluency in Spanish, an associates degree, CNA, and volunteer experience. I scored an 88 on my TEAS! I hope they can look past my grades in my prerequisite courses and I get in!!! I hope we all get into this cohort! Good luck everyone

Hello guys, I hope i get in...

80 points total, 89 on teas, 3.3 gpa, LVN...i have read in other posts people have gotten in with mid 70s. I guess we will see.

Also as far as i can tell, usually people get invited on mid feb to take the dosage test early march and get acceptance letters mid march.

Let me know any updates or what you guys heard.

It's a dosage calculation test. Probably math no harder than the teas.

@Bunnymarie it’s a math test for LVN applicants only.

hi! i'm also an LVN that applied for the bridge program. i heard we get emails mid February as well for the dosage test. we can only miss 1 question, anymore than that and we're already disqualified. my friend was accepted and they started last June, she said there was about 30 LVN applicants. so we have a smaller pool than the generic RN program.

Eventhough there is a small applicant pool there is also a smaller acceptance. I believe they only take as many LVNs as the number of RN students that drop out.
