UIW BSN Spring 2023

When I went back to school after 5 years my GPA was 2.20 but after a year in school I brought it up to a cumulative 3.06. My UIW GPA is a 3.94 though I think with a 2.95 science GPA. I have not gotten lower than an A- for the entire year. I also got a 74.7 on my TEAS. I bought the study TEAS book and was getting 80% or above on the sections in the practice test but I guess TEAS anxiety got to me. I was able to write a statement to uiw about my bad grades I’m not sure if they will consider the statement though….

I did as well! I am a nervous wreck waiting to hear back!! It's the only program I applied to this Spring! 

Same!! all my eggs are in one basket. I am taking government classes this fall just in case I don't get in the first time, so then come next cycle I can apply to UIW again and UT health too. But just hope we get into UIW the first time!! I think we won't hear back until September which really sucks 

Ugh I was wondering when we would hear back I check my nursing Cas everyday haha!!

Me too!! But after it has been verified it says to check with your programs on the application status. I don’t want to do that though and be annoying to them  haha 

Me too.  I have only been accepted to UIW but have not got decision from Nursing School. Is this the same situation for you guys?

Yes same for me…

Do you know what this means? Do we have a chance of being rejected? I'm so worried.

I am sure we do have a chance ? I can’t find any stats on the admittance rate of the nursing program for UIW. I wonder if its as hard to get into as UT 

We keep update here ? Good luck to everyone

So I’ve been going to UIW since Spring 2021. My advisor there told me they like UIW students who apply to the UIW nursing school. I’m not sure if that means u get more of a chance tho ?‍♀️. UT is harder to get into. On their admissions website I’ve seen them wanting to accept people with high GPA and high TEAS. I will say there are probably outliers who do get into UT without being like a perfect student. Have u guys been going to uiw?? Also my advisor said based on past people who got into UIW I had a good chance of being an alternate ?. Then later she said I think last year they did accept one person with a 3.0 and 80% TEAS but that person was trying to get in for a while. I’m scared! I’ve been working my butt off this past year. I was pregnant for half the time in school and went back to school with a 6 week old  and 7 year old in Spring 2022. And I’ve been trying to make up for my bad GPA from 2016 when I was a irresponsible teen mom. Also not sure if any of u are vets like me but UIW likes vets so that might be an added chance to get in.

I can feel your hard work progress and dedication over the years. I visited the campus last week and it's really beautiful. I hope we can all get good news and study together in the future.
