Prerequisite Courses
Prospective students must complete a set of prerequisite courses before being admitted into the nursing program. These courses typically include subjects such as anatomy and physiology, microbiology, chemistry, and psychology. The completion of these courses demonstrates the academic preparedness of applicants.
Minimum GPA Requirements
Applicants must meet the minimum GPA requirements set by the nursing program. The GPA requirements may vary depending on the pathway chosen (e.g., traditional BSN, accelerated BSN, or RN to BSN). A competitive GPA is essential to demonstrate academic excellence and the ability to handle the rigorous coursework in the nursing program.
TEAS Exam
Applicants are required to take the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) exam, which assesses their knowledge in areas such as reading comprehension, math, science, and English language usage. The TEAS exam provides the nursing program with valuable information about an applicant’s academic readiness and potential for success in the program.
