Hey I just graduated from blinn and started my job. It seems like the admission process is completely random so I would put to much stress on it. For example I got in my first try, no wait list. But some other people who seemed much more qualified than me were waitlisted before they got in.
Also another thing, make sure to research residency programs the end of your third semester!! That's then the applications will start opening and they close very fast. Blinn does not give you a heads up or offer any advice or pointers when it comes to jobs after you graduate.
Thanks so much for the advice! I'll definitely keep the residency programs in mind when I get to that point. That's really interesting about the admission process, I knew that priority admission is given to those students who have all prerequisites courses completed at the time of application, but didn't know it was random. That makes me even more nervous now. Even though I have all the course complete, I think I have only about 31 points, because of my GPA.
Does anyone know what you get on the TEAS scores matter? On their site it said as long as you get certain scores for each subject you get a point but let's say I scored all of them but my overall was around a 78%. Even though I got that 78% but got all points, would that score me less than someone who got a 85% and all points?
I think it would just matter on how many points you have. For example, even though you made a 78% and got all the points and you had 32 points in total, but she made a 85% and got all of the points and she had 31 points in total, I think you will have the priority first and then her. But if you both had the same number of points like 31 each and then they probably would look at the one who had the higher TEAS Score or who has more classes done. This is just what I think, I am not sure if that is how it works though.

Starting this thread for the admissions process of Blinn's 2025 Spring semester Nursing Program. I saw a few threads from the past about test scores, GPA and overall chances on admission that helped me so I figured this might help someone else too! I just applied.
