[lunalovegood]

Hi everyone!!!

Hopefully some people are in the same boat as me out there! I'm applying to University of Maryland School of Nursing, Baltimore for Fall 2015. I currently go to university of maryland college park. I was wondering if anyone knew what kind of GPA range (science and overall) umb accepts? I have a 3.0 science and around a 3.5 overall and i would like to know where i stand with other applicants. I have don't a lot of work in health, nursing intership/volunteering in hospitals. Could anyone tell me from experience or know of people who were excepted and what you/their GPA (science and overall) and TEAS scores were?

any other information about the application process would be very helpful!

Thanks!!!! :)

A little delayed in this chat but I am applying to UMD, George Washington, Georgetown, and Towson for Fall of 2015. All of my apps are in and I'm just waiting on my last professors letter of recommendation. I am a second degree student (already have a BA in Human Biology) and have been working full time for the last three years in NoVA.

I always knew I wanted to do something in healthcare, but I tossed around the ideas of physical therapy, PA, and Nursing. Nursing was the winner! I loved some of the volunteer work I sid, and have met so many incredible people recently who are nurses themselves! I am so so excited for decisions to come out in March ( and so so nervous!)

My stats are 3.5 GPA overall, 3.6 prerequisite GPA, and 91.3% on the TEAS V. I think Maryland asked for a minimum 3.0 science and overall GPA with TEAS V scores above 70%.
