CCAC Prospective Nursing Students Fall 2015

Published

Hi everyone! I'm new here, i'm wanting to apply to CCAC nursing program in the spring for the fall 2015. Wondering if anyone else out there is in the same boat? Or can i get some advice? I'm wondering if we're allowed to turn in reccomendations etc. I'm concerned because when i first started college i didnt care about my grades so my GPA is very low right now but i have all of the pre-reqs and co-reqs out of the way except A+P 2 and micro. Hoping to take those in the Spring/Summer. Has anyone else ever gotten in with a low GPA? Also, I keep seeing things about different campuses and people saying their "Allegheny evening" or "North Day".. where do you find out those schedules?? Thanks everyone!!

Got accepted to Allegheny evening for lpn to rn ! Congrats everyone !

Checked the mailbox again today, nothing. Do you all live in Allegheny county? I'm thinking I didn't get in since the deadline to accept is Wednesday and I still haven't received anything. Good luck to you all!

Sorry to hear that. I would call on Monday to make sure, just in case! If you don't mind me asking, what was your GPA and have you completed all of your pre reqs and co reqs? How many credits have you actually received from CCAC? I'm in Allegheny county.

I would call because I live in uniontown which is fayette county and I got mine today

If I figured it out correctly, I had a 5.25. I transferred in all of my pre-reqs and co-reqs and just had the nursing classes left. I only took 9 credits at CCAC previously and the rest were from my Associates degree. I live in Westmoreland County, but things aren't looking too good. I am beside myself right now.

I'm going to call first thing Monday. I emailed Amber earlier this week and never heard anything.

Just keep positive

Your GPA is about the same as mine, the only difference all my credits were from ccac

My GPA was 4.48 so your GPA isn't the problem. The only reason not to be accepted would be a technical error. Either a problem with your credit transfers, not having your high school records, CCAC acceptance letter etc. Hopefully you'll see something on Monday.

Thank you both for the kind words. I don't know if this means anything, but when I look on the CCAC portal, it has me listed as applying for Spring 2015, which isn't the case, so maybe that has something to do with it? I am definitely calling (and probably not sleeping) on Monday for some answers. I called and checked with them at least once a week until everything was received to make sure they got everything and the lady said they did, so I hope it's not an error with my transcripts and what not.

I will keep you all updated!

I would call. Might just be an error or lost in the mail. Better to double check for sure. Keep us posted!

I received my tentative acceptance letter on Friday!!! I got Allegheny Day!

I wasn't able to post due to moving and not having my computer set up. Did anyone else hear from the Nursing program?

Got into South! I have a question though. It says South Day but I applied for evening/weekend. Does anyone else's say day? It looks like on the next page you get to choose day or evening. A friend of mines states the same and also applied for evening.

You get whatever is left available. So if there are a lot of people above you with your first choice as their first choice, they get the seats first.
