Anyone Applying to Delta College for Spring 2011

Published

With only 4 weeks until we can start applying, I thought that it would be nice to start a new thread so that we can all keep in touch, pass along information, and post our stats.

SBNRN2B - you can also go to collegesource.org they have a collection of catalogs from a bunch of schools. On the score sheet it says that you can either obtain copies of course descriptions from your school or collegesource.com. Hope that helps!

Roxy992- Thanks so much! Will try there first but 20 years ago was along time ago. My school hasn't even archived them electronically yet.

SBNRN2B - Like you, some of my classes were taken over 20 years ago. The catalogs for the courses are so old that they don't have them online - they are on microfiche at the school. The school made copies of the course descriptions and the cover of the catalog to show the year that I took the courses. I had to physically go pick these up from the school. Fortunately, I still live nearby, so it wasn't a big deal. I made lots of copies so that I don't have to do that again!

When you say course descriptions, do they actually want the whole explanation of what the class included? The name such as college composition is not enough?

When you say class descriptions do you mean the whole explanation of the class, not just college composition or human anatomy? We can just print it off the college website and that is sufficient? Thanks

When they ask you to submit supporting documentation, they will send you a checklist of what they want. They want the course description from the catalog of the year that you took the class. Here is part of the request they made of me last semester:

"I have attached

OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS and COURSE DESCRIPTIONS for the purpose of determining course equivalency

for all prerequisites I DID NOT take at San Joaquin Delta College. The course descriptions must come

from the specific catalog year in which the course was taken.

NOTE: You must submit official transcripts AND course descriptions EVEN IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY

SUBMITTED THIS INFORMATION TO OUR COLLEGE."

Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for the info, I was able to print most of them from my school's website and I got one from 2001 from collegesource.com

Hi everyone! Did any of you receive your confirmation email yet? Just making sure that I didn't miss anything.

Kristi - thank you for the video!

No I didn't get a confirmation yet, and I applied a week ago.

Runningrn2b-When you were not able to accept your spot in the RN program last semester, did you attempt to postpone(sorry sp) your acceptance to the following semester. I know it's probably a long shot and they would just advise you to re-apply but if I'm accepted for fall, this is something that I am considering.
