cape fear community college for 2013 ?

Blondiegirl,

I'm actually sitting at 381, I thought I had a couple more points, but found out ACA 111 only counts if you take it at CFCC..... how bout you? I'm hoping to meet some people that I'll have classes with before we start in August!

mmtnurse,

I'm actually a student at UNCW but hoping to get into cape fears ADN program this year. I'm very nervous though because I have 345 points and I just hope thats enough! I have been reading about people in the past getting in with 338 and such but I know they are accepting 10 less people this year. However, the number of people in the applicant pool is less too.. so fingers crossed! This whole wait for the letter is consuming my mind!

I'm sure you'll make it in! Good luck though!

mmtnurse7- That makes sense, I took my prerequisites at CFCC so I am a student already. You will definitely make it in with 381!

Blondiegirl- When I asked yesterday about them taking 10 less she said it's actually the same it's just that 10 spots are held for the LPN transfer students so this years packet says 70 instead of 80 (like last year) which is why I got confused! I have a 342 :/ so I am really nervous! Hopefully the scores look the same aslast year and we both get in!

Being an alternate wouldn't be the end of the world but it would pretty much be moreeeee waiting ahh!

*Fingers crossed* for us!

If I get in I would also love to meet some people this summer also and maybe we will be able to help each other study along the way!

mmtnurse, thanks I'm hoping so! And CFCC13, 342 is still good it's still higher than last years that got in but I'm right in your same boat almost so I do have my fingers crossed we get in. And yes being an alternate would just be moreee agony!! I would like to meet people as well. I've heard how tough this program is and it would be great to have other students to study and talk with! Good luck to everyone!!!!

Went in for my point count yesterday. I'm sitting at 334. I feel like I'm right on the cusp...maybe I will get alternate. I hear that all alternates usually get in. Really hoping to get in..I don't want to wait another year lol!!!

I'm wondering if CFCC can tell us what the lowest point count total was for the past few years? It looks like from the all nurses forums - 2011: There were 383 letters sent out with lowest score was 339 ( could be less but that's all I could find)- that was a competitive year from what I read.

2012: 250 letters sent out and the lowest I could find that got in was 338.5 and 334 was the lowest alternate that commented on this site.

Let me know if anyone found anything else from previous years or if CFCC has let anyone know!

Thanks!

I know that 239 letters were sent out this year

Yeah that's what I was told, 239 letters. I'm thinking we will get them this time next week, hopefully Tuesday or Wednesday..?

I had my point total and ended up with 331.5. I know someone else who had just over 300. You also have to remember that you only have to get 30% on the Psb to get called in for point totals. That could be a large number of applicants who just meet the minimum standard. Good luck to all of and I imagine it will take a couple of weeks to get acceptance letters sent out. We have all done the best we can and now it just comes down to the numbers.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to let you know I called cape fear and asked when we should be expecting letters.. Turns out there was some mail issues with the point count letters so they are still doing the point count until Wednesday of this week. Then will send out letters for acceptance or denial after that... More waiting!

Oh No I was hoping today would be the day!
