I wanted to get everyone's opinion and I'm just curious to know what my chances are of being accepted into WGU Texas Pre-Licensure program. My application is complete according to my enrollment counselor. I am just waiting for after November 1st to be notified if I got into the pre-licensure program. I understand that I would have to apply to the clinical portion while completing the pre-licensure part. I currently have a 3.53 GPA, working to improve that and my TEAS adjusted score was 82.7% on the first try. I'm just worried that I'm not as competitive as others to get accepted. I have been rejected by other schools. I have also taken the HESI A2 exam with a 85.43% on the first try.
Has anyone else been accepted to WGU's Pre-Licensure program? If so, what was your overall GPA and TEAS V Score? I just want to know if I even have a chance of being accepted. If you are in the program now, what is the program like? How are the clinicals, and where are you doing them?
I was told the same thing by my enrollment counselor. Jan. 10th and 11th for bootcamp and Jan. 17th for the skills test. I'm excited to begin my new journey. I'm going to try to finish the non-nursing courses ASAP so I don't become overloaded in the last semester.
Just wanted to update everyone. I started and finished my orientation today. It went well. I have a follow up call with my enrollment counselor and admissions coordinator later this week. Has anyone received any information on their mentor?
Haven't received my orientation stuff because I am waiting on my updated transcript to be processed from the school I am finishing. This is finals week and was hoping to get my grades posted early. Did you get a time frame for testing after boot camp? I am supposed to work that day and I need to know if I need to find someone to cover me the whole day or for a few hours.
I just spoke with Admissions and Mentors will be assigned hopefully by the 23rd but the latest date will be the 29th. They are trying to finalize every student.
Have not heard anything yet, but I am still waiting for them to review my updated transcript. Probably won't be until next week. I am hoping that it is sooner than later. I would like to get the orientation part done.
I spoke to my mentor earlier today. We did some introductions, she gave me a pdf handbook of the skills we are being tested over for boot camp (a checklist of skills they are looking for), and we have scheduled a degree plan telephone conversation for the following week after the Christmas Holidays. I have already been assigned homework from her (Vision Statement & About Me Worksheet). Lol! Everything seems to be going in order for me, but that could be that I was one of the top people on the list for processing (according to my mentor). She seems very awesome and down to earth. I'm very excited to be working with her and to meeting all of you on Jan. 10 & 11th. Our Dallas Jan. 2015 Co-Hort has 14 students that were accepted. If you are a part of the WGU Dallas Jan. 2015 Co-Hort, please feel free to chime in at any time. I would like to know how others are doing.
The continuation of this thread has been posted into a new thread called:[h=1]WGU Pre-Licensure Dallas, TX Jan. 2015 Co-Hort[/h]If you are a WGU Dallas, TX Jan. 2015 Co-Hort Student; Please join me there if you can to share with everyone our journey to becoming Nurses.
Hi, I am interested in enrolling in the next Cohort in Dallas, however, I would love to talk with some other students who are currently in a WGU cohort. I work full time and have a family and I'm wondering if anyone is having trouble juggling the workload with personal activities. Can you tell me when the labs are typically scheduled? It is a certain day/time and you have to attend or do they give you options with a few different dates/times? Have you found that WGU's program is helpful in providing the tools necessary to succeed in this program?
