TCC / Weatherford College Applicants

by smvtx23

Hey All!

Is anyone applying to TCC or Weatherford College for Spring 2010 entry? I am applying to both and just wanted to see if anyone else was doing the same.

Good luck to you.

I was in the same place as you in the spring. I applied to both schools as well. I missed getting into Weatherford by 1 point, but I got into TCC and start in just 25 days ( not like I am counting down or anything )

I had 22 points and the people with 23 points and up were getting in at Weatherford this spring. I was the same way TCC was closer for me but wanted to apply to a couple places to better my chance.

Thanks

I am applying to Weatherford, I currently attend TCC. I will not have A &P II completed in time, to apply in Jan. I might apply anyway.... I am going to apply for Weatherford and Brookhaven for sure. Once I take the TEAS, I should have 26 points, she told me they would give me a C for A&PII, during the admission process. I hope I can get in, somewhere. I prefer TCC, its closer to home, and I am used to it. If not Brookhaven is my second choice, their program is 16 months.

Wow - I'm really surprised to hear that someone was accepted at TCC but not Weatherford. Its usually the other way around. Good job!!

Hi Stacygirl... I wasnt accepted to either. I plan on applying to both in Jan. 2010. I wont have A&PII done until May 2010, which would knock me out for TCC, but I am applying anyway.... Hopefully I can attend another college and get that class done, in time to apply for TCC. Fingers are crossed!

I'm applying to Weatherford in the Dec-Jan application period. I will be done with all pre-req's except PE. My understanding was that you at least had to have the 3 sciences and either a Chemistry or college level math out of the way before applying. The packet I received outlined the "points" system, and I don't know how you could get enough points without having those and at least some of the other pre-req's done. I'm attending TCC right now, but Weatherford is actually closer to me, and if I can shave off 6 months by being able to apply without having taken my PE, (I would have to have it finished to apply to TCC) that's better. I will take PE (First Aid) in the spring.
