Is anyone else applying this June for the Spring 2021 Cohort, either the AO BSN or the BSN?
I'm currently taking CHEM 1451 and STAT 1308. If I pass these classes all I have left are Path and Pharm. I received a B for Microbiology, so I will be retaking that I think, and most likely CHEM & STAT. I received a C for the HIST 1312 US History since 1865, I took it at UTA, if I retake it at my local community college can I ask to replace the grade? Additionally, does anyone know if an Associate's in Science counts as a previous degree?
Don't forget!
Check your vaccinations! Start getting them squared away now! Especially the Hep B titers.
If you're from outside the US and have had the BCG vaccine, you will need the T-Spot or QuantiFERON blood test (which you probably already knew).
TEAS should be taken no later than 4/1/2020 (per the advisor).
If it makes you feel better I did not get called off the waitlist until two days before Thanksgiving, around the time that grades were going in for Patho and Pharm. As much as it was a bummer that people were failing those classes it was an opportunity for me to start nursing school. I had an 8.435, unpartnered, no patho/pharm preference and am in DFW. People get weeded out super quickly with the vaccinations, which is mind boggling
I am at an 8.172 (unpartnered) and currently taking patho (doing well so far)...will take pharm over the Summer, so who knows if I even have a chance. (So assuming that I continue to do well in patho, if I reapply in June, I will be at an 8.67.) It seems like the averages I am seeing here are high 6's to low 9s. Yes...very frustrating about the vague waitlist.
Your scores seem great, I think you’ll have a really good shot. I was told pre-covid that a 7.5 score was competitive but there’s been so many more apps in with people being off work and such, it’s just bad luck for us.

This is trying to get people to get a degree in public health which guarantees acceptance to the nursing program.
