I can't find anything on average GPAs though :/ What about you? I'm a bit under 3.4 and worried it's not competitive! I did however read a thread where a woman said she got in with a 3.01gpa and 62% on her TEAS.

Same here! There is nothing about GPA's or TEAS scores...but I do have a friend who got in with a 3.1 GPA and a 79 TEAS! The worst that can happen is that we don't get it...or we get an interview! What are your stats? If you don't mind me asking :)

My GPA is a bit under 3.4 and I did a bit under 70% on the TEAS. I had to prepare in a short period of time and JUST finished my prerequisites. :/ I have three more classes though so I'll take it/apply again next cycle if need be! What are yours? Is this the main school you want to get into?

That's pretty great! My GPA is a 3.3..I had a rough semester this Spring. I took my TEAS back in December because I wanted to apply for fall 2016, but I still needed to take Public Speaking! So, since they only take TEAS scores within the last 6 months, I have to retake it! I made a 73.3% in December, but I hope to do better this go around! I take it this Friday, so I am kind of nervous! Did you get that email today about the deadline coming up? It's so surreal now!

That's awesome! My GPA was really high until I started A&P, Chem and Stats! Those classes are no joke! I wish I had the time to retake the TEAS! :/ I don't think you'll have an issue getting in even with a 73.3! Either way, good luck! I'm sure you will do great! I did get the email also. Every time I see UIW in my inbox I get butterflies lol! I wonder how long it will take to find out if we got in or not!!

No joke! Those classes were pretty tough! How are things going with NursingCAS on your end? They have me so frustrated!

Also, just realized I overlooked your question about my school of choice! But yes, UIW is! I have also decided to apply to UTHSCSA as well. Their deadline is August 1! So, there is a little more breathing room there!

I have a little over 60 hours and they are all at San Antonio College. I think that helped the whole NursingCAS process go smoothly for me. It was processed within like two weeks! What's going on with NursimgCAS on your end?

That's good! I am glad that process went well for you! When I was in high school, I took dual credit classes for college and obviously I had to send NursingCAS an official copy of the transcript...well I did that a little over 3 weeks ago, and it still hasn't been processed! I'm starting to get a little nervous that it won't be processed in time. I'm not sure when UIW says that the "NursingCAS application should be completed and submitted by July 1st", it means transcripts need to be completed and reviewed by NursingCAS or just simply sent and postmarked by July 1st. Do you have any idea?
