Admissions

Admissions at Walden University

• Acceptance/admission rate (%)
• – No official acceptance or admission rate for Walden’s nursing programs is published on the university’s website or official academic catalog. External sites indicate a 100% university-wide acceptance rate, but these figures are not corroborated by Walden’s own admissions materials.
• Minimum GPA requirements
• – For undergraduate (RN-to-BSN) admission: cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above is required.
• – For graduate nursing (MSN) admission: cumulative GPA of 2.5 or higher on a BSN or equivalent is required.
• TEAS / HESI score thresholds
• – I found mention of TEAS and HESI scores being referenced in Walden dissertations (non-official research output), but no official threshold values (minimum scores) are published on the university’s official admission pages.
• Prerequisite or waitlist notes
• – Applicants must hold an active RN license by the program start date, and provide an unofficial transcript showing an associate degree or hospital diploma in nursing from a CHEA- or US Department of Education-accredited institution ([lifelonglearning.waldenu.edu](https://lifelonglearning.waldenu.edu/nursing-

Format

Schedule and format at Walden University

• Delivery modes: Walden’s nursing programs—including BSN, MSN, DNP, and post‑graduate APRN certificates—are offered fully online; no mention is made of hybrid or on‑campus delivery in the official program descriptions.
• Course format options:
• – Course‑based (scheduled) format: traditional instructor‑led, with a predetermined schedule, weekly deadlines, and cohort‑style pacing.
• – Tempo Learning® (self‑paced, competency‑based): enables students to progress at their own pace, setting their own schedule and finishing when ready. Includes flat‑rate, three‑month subscription terms and support via academic coaching.
• Asynchronous vs synchronous:
• – Most course‑based programs (including nursing) use asynchronous delivery: students complete lectures, discussions, and assignments on their own time within deadlines.
• – Competency‑based Tempo format is described as self‑paced, which aligns with the self‑paced (asynchronous‑style) model, without scheduled live sessions.
• – No men
