I searched to see if anyone had already started a topic on applicants for the UNG Fall 2017 cohort since applications just opened at the beginning of the month, but didn't find one. Please feel free to move this if I missed it!
With that being said, how many of you have applied for the program already? I just wanted to have a place where we could all chat and share our anxieties while waiting on acceptance (hopefully!) letters!
I'm Heather. I just transferred to UNG so my first semester will be this coming Fall. I have about 6 more classes to take before the program starts and am currently studying to take the HESI next month. I have 2 children, 12 year old boy and 2 year old girl, and work in the service industry. Tell me about yourselves!
Also, for what it's worth, when I was at orientation the nursing advisors said averages for those accepted last semester were 3.6 GPA and 87% on the HESI. Obviously, those numbers vary greatly depending on the applicant pool, but it does help give some idea about what we should expect.
Hey everyone!!! This is my first time applying to nursing school and I have lots of questions and lots of anxiety!! My over all gpa is 3.51, my UNG gpa is 3.66 and my hesi score was 89! I wanted to kinda see what everyone thought my chances were! I made As in all sciences except second Chem and I made a B! But back in 2007 I goofed off and failed an anatomy so I have that F on my transcript, of course it's an A now but I'm thinking that's going to haunt me!! I've worked so hard and really pray I get in!!

Someone posted a point scale that they use a couple pages back, that may help you.
Hopefully that F won't haunt you too bad. I have an F in anatomy from 2012 and it's still haunting me. Been trying for nursing school for 5 years now!!! Good luck!!!
