Application Meeting WCCCD

Published

I attended the applicatiobn meeting yesterday. Yea it's finally over. I will probably be a nervous wreak until I hear something. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. All we had to do was fill out the application, make sure all of our documents were correct and turn it in. I should hear something in the later part of June. Good Luck to all apllying for August admissions. One more thing it wasn't as many people there as I thought it would be!:nurse:

I have taken the NET test. What questions do you have?

Sharazed says:

How long will the NET be? (time wise)(all the same day or ??)

Will the Nursing dept recieve the results first?

Will the NET scores be on my record with the Dept of Education?

Was it difficult and how hard was the math? (don't like math to much)

Oh my god i have so many questions and i can't think...its like having a brain meltdown.

I guess anxiety gets the best of us all :yeah:

Thanx

The Net test is given all on the same day and takes about 4 hours depending on how soon they start the test and other factors.

Will the Nursing dept recieve the results first?

No, the nursing department does not receive your test scores. ERI sends your results directly to you and you must provide a copy of them with your application to the nursing department.

Will the NET scores be on my record with the Dept of Education?[/qoute] I have no idea. If you mean like GED scores are kept at the DoE then I would have to say the answer is no. ERI scores your test and then sends you the results.

Was it difficult and how hard was the math? (don't like math to much)

I didn't think the math was hard at all, however, I tend to favor math a bit. Learn fractions, decimals, percentages, and how to convert between them, and some basic algebra like solving for n.....n+5=2 find n....there were a few more indepth algebra problems but they still weren't that difficult. Personally, I found the reading portion more challenging because of the time restraints. There just didn't seem like enough time to finish everything.

LOL I completely understand. Take your time and ask questions when you think of them. We are all going to be here at some point or another to answer them. LOL PM me if you think of anymore questions.

Good luck!!!!!

Hi Ladies,

One thing i forgot to ask...

Do i have to get the NET results before the application meeting?

Hope not.

Thanks for all the info.

It really helps out to know that someone else knows how things

work. The counselors don't really give the information in detail.

The nursing secretary just tells you to read the criteria and it don't

really specify.

Yes. You have to have your NET test results to take with you to the application meeting. You also have to have a form that proves that you attended an information meeting.

I will tell you the other stuff you need, but you would already know this if you went to an information meeting.

-two letters of recommendation.(dated in the month in which you are applying)

-iChat background check clearance

-transcripts from all colleges attended

-evaluation of advanced standing, if you attended another college (evaluate your transcripts)

-form proving you went to an information meeting.

-your net test results.

-your essay "Why you wish to be a nurse and how you foresee nursing in the future."

-there may be more I don't remember.

Thanks i will be going to the information meeting tonight. I have all the above information on the pre-req for nursing paper, i was just curious if the stuff had to be provided at the information meeting or the application meeting. I just learned the meetings are two separate meeting. Thanks for the clarification on confusion.
