I am making this thread to chat with others who have applied to Blinns ADN program for Spring 2024.

I got an email for the fingerprinting saying I've been pre-enrolled for fingerprint-based background check at IdentoGo and all that. Did everyone on the alternate/accepted list get that as well? Just making sure I'm not being delusional and think it means more than what it is. I'd assume everyone on the alternate/accepted got it or will get it very soon. 

I got accepted and have not received this email.

hmm.. I wonder what their system is for doing this then.. I wouldn't think that means I'm going to be pulled from the alternate list especially when it's not even 11/10 yet... Only obvious reason that I got it was because I'm on the waitlist period. By the way, did you take Patho? I saw you said you had 31 points so I'm curious how you broke down your score?

I did not take Patho. That is the only class I did not have. Maybe they are preparing you just incase you get pulled since it would be to late to start the process if it was at a later date. On a previous thread for I believe the 2021 semester it looks like they went at-least 10 down the list. Do you know where you are on the list?

From what I've read in other blinn ADN threads on here,  is that they have about 20 on the alternate list and can accept anywhere from 5-20 but I think 20 was a rare occurrence. I'm not sure where I am on the waitlist and it's a little bit harder to tell kinda who's in front of me and stuff because people are posting their own calculated score vs the legitimate score from Blinn. I've been trying to contact Kate about it haha.

I emailed back to the email that sent the acceptance letter and asked if they could let me know where I am on the alternate list. They replied back and I am sitting at #12 on the alternate list. Might be worth an ask to see where you are at - they responded super quickly to me.

Did you ask them your legitimate calculated points?

When I emailed them, I asked for the points & where I was & they gave me all the info. I have 29.5 points. I also got the fingerprint email.

I spoke to Kate prior to submitting my application and she calculated my points to be 29.5.

she said the same thing to me when I submitted it but told me that wasn't Blinn's calculation, that was her own. I'd email her or ADN to double check

Do we think we'll hear back on Monday regarding final spots in the program?
