Thanks for getting back to me.
I guess I want a definite, this is your schedule type thing and all other information. I don’t want to feel rushed if we need to complete cpr, titers, background checks, etc. also, would like to know what we need to buy for school as well.
I should start looking into childcare now, hope they have openings

I get it! I have three kids but blessed my mom will watch them while I’m at school! I started trying to get my copy of titers and vaccines together And looking To sign up for cpr renewal. Just so it’s one less thing to worry about. I have looked at stethoscopes but I will wait In case there is a specific one they want us to have.

Hey everyone!
So just curious did anyone else receive a response when you emailed back regarding acceptance?
Although we received an acceptance email I am so anxious (or maybe more excited) to receive the following email to complete this. January is just 2.5 months away ...or so. Seems like so much time but it will fly by once I get the follow up email.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Congratulations on getting in!! How exciting! What are ways to make my application better? I have 2 F's that I am re-taking ? I think im doomed for any nursing program!!! ?

3.7 is not bad lol. My pre-reqs are 3.8! but over all is like 3.2 because I failed Government and History (which im re-taking this spring)

You are definitely not doomed I had some classes I took years ago when I wasn’t mentally prepared for school and It hurt my overall gpa also. I think overall mine was like a 3.2. I think having all your classes required for BSN helps as well as making sure you do well in the pre reqs required. Good luck!

I understand the frustration. When I applied last year I did not get in and I had a few more BSN classes to do. My program GPA is 3.75 and the overall is 3.37 and I also had 3 Fs and 1 W. I retook my Fs and got an A and B. What I love about them is they don't look at that like other schools. They take the highest grade that you have and go with that. In History 1 I got a C ?

On my TEAS my best score was math which was 100 everything else was in the 80's. So I think as long as you get those F's to C's or better and finish all your BSN prereqs then you should have a good chance.

Did you apply to any other schools?

Don't know if I am the only one but I am too excited that we hopefully hear more today!!!!

Just wanted to share my excitement!!!! ????????

I really thank you for that! This has been a long time coming. They have not let us know much else but based on the things I have read on there website. Insurance is needed in order to do clinical. Do you know of any good groups to join?

I really hope that you get in and do an amazing job!!!
