Just wanted to post a topic for all of those applying this fall for the Spring 2018 nursing program at Forsyth Tech. There have been plenty of times I've had questions about what to do and I thought we could support each other. I'll start, how do nursing classes work? do you take one per semester or a few?

Hey everyone,
I look forward to hearing from everyone. I'm applying to the spring 2018 program as well. I applied for fall 2017 but was short points. I've retook the TEAS since and made a little higher but I'm still in the 140s with my points. Has anyone else already applied and got turned down?
Hi everyone! Application time will be upon us before we know it! I've emailed to ask when our MAR packet will be available for our application. I haven't received a response yet. I'll be taking the teas this fall and applying this fall. Hopefully the timing works out for all of this cause I don't know deadlines but they're normally sometime in September. Is everyone getting excited?
*update*
I just received a reply. Here is the link she sent and a photo of the email

Nursing & Allied Health Admission Requirements - Forsyth Tech
MAR packets are now available online, everyone. I've spoken to admissions and they said that the online information session should be up and running within the next week. We are eligible to do our MAR review anytime after August 28 (if enrolled in summer classes). Our applications for the Spring are due by September 21. Good luck all! If you'd like to post your points here after your review, you're more than welcome :).
I have 85 before the TEAS :)
I have 91, with my current Teas score I have 156 points total. Hopefully my chances of getting in are good. Have you heard if it's easier to get in in the spring opposed to fall?
It looks like the fall is a bit more difficult based on the average points scales. I believe people prefer fall enrollment so it's a little mode competitive, but that isn't true for all semesters :)
Just to let everyone know, the online information session is now available on Forsyth Tech's website. It takes about 30 minutes to complete. Our MAR reviews can begin August 28 and it cannot come soon enough for me. I'm so excited!

Hey everyone! I'm applying for Spring as well. I can't do my MAR until the end of August because I had to take a class over the summer. I applied over 5 years ago and was placed on the alternate list with 147.8 points. Apparently I was near the bottom since I never got a call. My TEAS scores are expired, but if I make what I did last time I will have around 160 points. I hope that's enough....the range from those accepted this fall has me nervous.
