Austin Community College (ACC) - Fall 2010 Hopefuls

Published

I'm a Fall 2010 applicant at ACC and thought it would be nice for all the Fall 2010 hopefuls to have our own thread to share exciting news, information, and support with each other.

I turned in my application last Friday (Dec. 18th) after taking the HESI exam. I feel good about my scores but I anticipate competition for the Fall spots is going to be quite fierce. After that large applicant pool for Spring I think we will see a lot of re-applicants applying with the 5 extra re-application points. Not sure what that will mean for the ranking scores but it will be interesting to see . . .

Good luck to all the Fall 2010 applicants!

Purkinje - Yes, that is the exact wording that is on my letter. Provisional just because applicants need to show that they've passed RNSG 1105, the background check, and (according to the letter) ACC has enough staff to teach.

I didn't have any ranking information on my letter either.

Another applicant told me that 160 were accepted.

Can you tell me what your ranking # was? I got a denial, but my ranking was pretty close to 160.

Thanks.

Can you tell me what your ranking position was? I got a denial, but my ranking is close to 160.

Specializes in Adult ICU.

I had a 53 and got in but I didn't get an actual ranking spot out of 160 in my letter. If you're close to 160 you still have a chance to get in if enough people defer. Seems like 10-15 people deferred last semester on the posts. Keep your hope up.

I got in too. Congrats, all! Keep hope, those of you who didn't!

I got in too and asked for Hybrid. I didn't know letters were going out today but I had my email open all day in hopes they would. I think I replied within minutes of getting the letter so I cross my fingers that I get Hybrid!

Congrats to all who made it! :yeah:

If you didn't make it in this semester I promise that time will FLY until next semester. I remember having to defer last semester and I thought today would never come. It will be here before you know it!

Yay! I'm in! I chose CEC. Congratulations to all (especially the Spring 1105 classmates - I saw a lot of worried faces)!

Did anyone have a 51 or 52 and get accepted into the program?

I had a 52.97.

Specializes in Radiation Oncology.

I had a 50 and was #213 I believe. So no Fall 2010 for me. I was devastated at work. I had no many people who were pulling for me that it was more difficult to let them know I wasn't accepted than to hear the actual news myself. Maybe this is just God's way of telling me he wants my car paid off before I start school....it will be paid off in November. I got my crying out of the way and already submitted my re-application. So either 45 people die or defer, or I will just have to have more patience and start in January. Until then, I am lucky to have 2 nice jobs to keep me occupied. Congrats to all of ya'll!!!!

Oh no, Radiation!! I'm so, so sorry to hear that. You're right though, that there can be a reason for this -- a chance to get the car payments finished, to work, and to get all your ducks in a row. You'll get in for spring and you'll be ready to rock 'n roll when you get there.

Will they factor in Nursing skills in your re-application, giving you a total of six extra points?
