Published

Is there anyone out there that is getting ready to start the ACC ADN program this fall 2012? Just thot to start a thread to rub minds and exchange ideas and info!

So anxious, nervous, scared and excited all at the same time> Anybody feel the same way??

Hey! I am starting that program in the fall and am very excited! But also I'm just as anxious as you probably haha

Hi, thank you for replying and congratulations!!.:cheers: Do you know how the uniform issue is? do we only wear uniforms on clinical days or do we wear them everyday?.

Also do u have any info about the clinical sites or just anything at all about the program??

Does anyone know if it is ok to just turn in the shot record & not the sheet from ACC too??!!

Yes....i think its either you turn in the sheet stamped or signed by a HCP or copies of the shot record. i plan on turning in both though just to be on the safe side.

Alrighty thanks, thats what i thought too!

pls, what were your act scores and gpa, i want to apply this for spring 2013

RNlola 1: All I know is what was in the acceptance packet which is not a lot lol but I would guess we wear the uniforms even at class. I just can't wait for orientation to learn more!

jesus01: I think my ACT score was 27 overall and my GPA was around 3.2 to 3.3. I assume what got me accepted was that I had already spent 2 years at the University of Houston completing pre-reqs and core classes so I had all non-nursing classes completed when I applied.

My ACT was a 45 for reading & english portion, i have a 3.5 GPA but that is overall. i am not sure what my GPA was for just nursing classes. i also have all of the pre reqs finished.

I just read somewhere that uniforms are only for clinicals.

And for the reading and english combined total, which I think is what they look at was 58. (30 for reading and 28 for english).

Agiusti and Jehowell91: did u take dosage and the second class before applying. i got 42 for both reading and english, i dont know if that is good enough or i should take it again, for my overall gpa is 3.8 but i still have to take microbiology and engl 1302 class, i am currently taking engl 1301, i know i will have A in it. i have A's in both anatomy 1 and 2. i heard that Alvin takes just 30 students for spring.please any advice?

I did not take dosage, and if you think you could do significantly better on the ACT then take it again but some tests I don't retake simply because I don't think it'll make a big difference. You have an excellant gpa and A's in both anatomy classes are way better than what I had so I wouldn't worry too much. You should be fine if you keep up the grades! Just make sure to finish as many non-nursing classes as you can before entering the program so you can focus on the nursing classes, plus I think they like that.
