CCHS Acceptance letters, Fall 2011?

Sorry you did not get in the program. I would suggest you make an appointment to talk to admissions. They will tell you exactly what is needed to get into the program.

If you can get A's in A&P, Micro, and Medical Terminology you would be in great shape (that's what I did). You apply for a change of major right after midterm then you would find out 4-6 weeks later if you got in. Almost everyone here had to go through a semester here before being accepted. It's worth it if this is really where you want to get your degree.

I spoke with someone on the phone today and I think I am going to go in tommorow to talk to an admission counselor. See here is my problem, my college gpa is not so good, below a 3.0. I was accepted to the pre-professional program. I am wondering if I come in and make all A's in my classes( I am really determined at this point), will that be good enough to be accepted to the nursing program? Or will my college gpa come back to haunt me forever.

I do know of some students that were in the same boat as you with a lower GPA and they did get into the ADN program after a semester in the Pre-Professional program. It's not guaranteed but if you do well in your classes and get involved in school activities you will have a great chance when you apply for a change of major.

Good luck at your meeting with Admissions. What time are you going to be at the school today? I have a break between 2 and 3 if you were going to be around and wanted to talk some more about the program. Just a thought : )

I went today around 12:30 and spoke with someone in admissions. She told me to improve my chances I would have to come to CCHS in the fall and make A's in all of my classes. That would make my application more competitive, but of course she can't make any guarantee that will be enough for them to look past my previous bad gpa. You have been more than helpful. I would love to talk to you about how some of your pre-professional classes, like their difficulty or which teachers I should take.. Any feedback would be great! Thanks!
