No, unfortunately, my husband has to stay behind in Texas to complete his orders. I am going to be on the lookout for a rental for me and our dogs. My parents live in Pensacola in Perdido key though so I have been to the area a'lot in the last 5 years. If you have any questions 

[jonhin]

Awh! I’m sorry, that’s hard no doubt. It will fly by you’ll be so busy with school and you’ll have your dogs! I think I found a place this weekend. IDK how to message on here but I’d love to stay in touch as info comes out before we start ? 

[S_Ary27]

It is! We definitely have told ourselves it is just temporary. My husband got a date for the State trooper academy in Florida when he's done with his time in the military so definitely sacrifices have to be made. I am not sure either, but you can add me on facebook if you'd like.  Samira Horqque.

That’s a good attitude! I don’t have facebook but I put my email address on your page, I think haha 

[S_Ary27]

I got it! Here is mine [e-mail]

I'm applying for Summer 2021. Does anyone mind leaving their stats that got accepted? I'm worried about my TEAS. I'm taking it Tuesday, but I'm 35, with 3 kids, and a deployed husband so I haven't got to study much and some of my classes are older so not fresh in my mind. 

My stats are:

Pre-req GPA: 4.0

Total GPA: 3.8

TEAS: N/A yet

Prior Bachelor's, with Soci/Psych combo and Med Term, no volunteer work recently enough to count.

[S_Ary27]

Hey! Good luck I am sure you will do great. I also did not have time to study for my TEAS as I was taking course work, working, and had to drive 3 hours for school. We are also military! I would highly recommend you do some volunteer hours (on base would be glad to have you most of the time) just because when you fill out the application on NursingCAS you need things to fill up at least three spaces. Your Stats are amazing. Plus that bachelors may help you too! Here were mine;

Pre-req: 3.6 

Overall: 3.7 

TEAS: 80%

[hillsb]

Which part of the NursingCAS are you referring to that needs 3 spots filled out? I'm not noticing any areas that are not filled in on mine.

Do you mean under experiences?

[S_Ary27]

Yes under experiences/achievements. I meant three spots as a rule of thumb for a solid foundation in those sections. 

[hillsb]

Ah OK, It said employment counted. So I listed my employment. I'm not currently employed, but was before kids. My Bachelor's is in Healthcare Admin. Hopefully, that will work. 

[S_Ary27]

Yes! I know that UWF did not mention this, but a different school I applied to said that employment is just as weighted as volunteer work. Some people can do volunteer and that's great but others just don't have the time or a place to do it.
