SUNY Downstate Accelerated BSN questions

Published

Hey there!

I want to apply to Downstate soon and wanted to know the GPA and TEAS scores of the recent accepted students. I have a 3.6 overall GPA and a 3.5 science GPA. I volunteer, take care of children and do psych research. Do those that got accepted think i have a chance?

I'm at Downstate now finishing my first semester. Downstate only looks at your math and reading TEAS score (I have a 95% total score), and your GPA matters, I had similar stats and ended up getting in off the waitlist (there were a lot of people who were accepted off the waitlist this year). It's hard to say exactly what they're looking for since every applicant pool brings different stats - get good recommendations, write a strong essay and take pathophysiology if you can (they'll give you credit for it and it will make your first semester a lot less stressful). Their applicant pool changes from year to year--some people apply twice before getting in and some get in on the first try. Hope that helps.

Also, look at old threads here and you'll see stats for people for previous incoming classes. I pretty much read every Downstate related thread here and it was really helpful.
