applying to lone star colleges for fall 09

[jeneecw]

I'm new to this site. I've been coming here browsing for a while, but I hadn't seen anyone posting yet if they were applying at any of the lone star colleges for fall 2009. I just took my HESI and unfortunately only got an 87.23 so that puts my scores at 11.1892 and I don't think I'll get in now. I'll apply at Montgomery as my first choice, then north harris, tomball, and cy-fair. If I don't get in I guess I'll have to try to either retake the Hesi next semester or retake my english 1301 that I got a B in... this is driving me crazy! I started working on the pre-req's over 5 years ago and stopped to have 3 kids now I'm back in the game and I was so disappointed today after my HESI. The competetiveness is just crazy that a B in one class and a B on one test can pretty much take me out of the running. I'm going to keep my hopes up, but I'd sure like to hear if anyone else is applying and what yall's scores are :wink2:

I am so ready for the wait to be over!

It seems like it could be any day now till we get our letters...

Good Luck to everyone!

I have a question... I put Montgomery as my first choice and North Harris as my second. I am pretty sure that I wont get into Montgomery because I had an 11.25 and after reading some of the posts on the message boards it looks like you at least need an 11.4.... so my question is does it matter the way you put the schools in order on the applications? Also... will you get 2 seperate letters or just one letter? Thanks... and good luck to everyone!!

North harris website says they will be mailed out on the 13th.

Nurse723: Oh, ok. Thanks.

I got in at North Harris! I'm so surprised and so happy! I wonder if I need to wait for a denial letter from Montgomery (my first choice) or if the fact that I got an acceptance letter from my #2 automatically means that I didn't get in at #1? Good luck to everyone!

I got in to north harris too! I am so excited!

What were ur scores?

[jeneecw]

11.1892 i think. i don't think i have any leftover financial aid for summer, does anyone know if it's cheaper to take the cpr class somewhere other than the continuing education classes at lonestar? theirs are $51

I had an 11.5296. North harris was my first choice.

Hey guys, in order to apply for nursing, was it required to turn in a paper copy of the application? Or just fill out the apply 4 it application online? I am not even sure what my 3rd choice of college was. I know I had Cy-Fair, then Tomball. Not sure what I put for my last choice.
