Sounds like they are trying to string you along for as long as they possibly can in order to maximize their access to your pocketbook!

Cha-Ching!

That is what it sounds like to me too. They are capitalizing on the fact that nursing programs are impacted at the CC level.

My advice would be to take the exam elsewhere that the NLN test is being offered and see what you score on it. If you score well enough, go ahead and take the classes. If not, try studying and then take the NLN again and see if your score improves. They can't stop you from taking the test somewhere else.

Even the NCLEX will let you test again in a shorter period of time and give you pre-test material to help you out.

Well, we are only allowed to take the HESI enterance exam once in a year. So if you do poorly, you have to wait a whole year to try again.

My school did the same type of thing. It's a community college, and you must make a score of 100 (not 100 percent), to have a chance to get in to the school. If you didn't make a 100 the first time, then you have to wait a whole year to take the NLN at that school. The other schools in my area are BSN, so they go by GPA, and aren't as hard to get into as the community college. This is the only school in my area that offers the associates. Luckily I got in after the second try.
