Western Kentucky University LPN to ASN Program - HESI scores

Updated:   Published

Hey! I have recently applied to WKU's LPN-ASN program and was wondering if anyone on here has been accepted in past cohorts and could tell me their HESI scores? I'm wanting to see if I have a shot. Thank you!

I did! I’m currently in my second semester. I made an 84 overall on the HESI.

Congrats! I just submitted my application with a HESI score of 88 so I’m hoping that I get in. Is it the hardest thing ever or do you find that having gone to LPN school previously has helped?

I actually told you wrong, I just went back and checked and I got an 88.67 on my HESI. You will def get in! It’s not bad actually. You just have to go into it already knowing your study style. I have had the same study partner since PN school and it has worked for us. Also, CLEP every chance you get!! Every semester I’ve only had one course because I CLEP out. It’s so much easier to just focus on one class. But overall I am so thankful I took the LPN route first because it has helped me. My LPN program was HARD!! So it definitely prepared me for this.

I am interested to learn about CLEP too!  Good luck on getting in. I hope we both get accepted! I keep checking my email to see if they sent anything. I wonder how long it will be before they let us know.

The classes you will have the option to CLEP are Mental Health, OB, and Pediatric nursing. I have found it so much easier to only have to focus on one class as opposed to two. You just pay the money (I believe it’s $75) and you will take the exam through HESI as well. The instructor will provide you with study material like PowerPoints and lectures to help prepare for it. You must make a 77 or higher to successfully CLEP the course. Hope this helps!

Good luck to you both! When I was accepted last semester we knew two days later but it really varies especially considering campus was closed early yesterday and will be closed all day today.
