2014 CCP Nursing Program

[BlackmaleRN]

I figured I would start this topic to lower my anxiety just a little. I took the health allied test today and I have to wait till next week to get my scores. I really feel like im on pins and needles right now and I know I'll be a nervous wreck when I actually wait for my acceptance. Before I even got started on my journey to be a nurse I came across this website and It really answered a lot of questions about the application process, and was insightful in other areas of nursing that enabled me to think of more questions for answering. what I really love the most was that in previous years ccp applicants supported each other during the nerve wrecking waiting period on getting accepted. that support was so tremendous that a lot of the applicants bonded and became friends. Is there anyone else that has applied for the 2014 CCP program?

Placement test? What do you mean? Is it for entry to the college or the program?

It took me 3 years to finish my prereqs because I had a different degree and graduated. I went back to CCP because I want to become a nurse. Most people finish their prereqs in 2 years but some can do it 1 year that is if they take 7 classes each on Fall and Spring and 4 classes during Summer

Hi Danad320,

There are not many prereqs to get into the program but I chose to take most of the non nursing courses required to complete the program prior to starting. I was also preparing to meet the requirements of most BSN programs when I finish CCP. I finished all of my non nursing courses in exactly two years.

It should be with the lab. It is a 2 hour class I believe. Click on the classes until you see class type: Seminar

[Danad320]

I meant the placement test to get in to ccp or start...I haven't started any prereqs yet and I work full time so I figured I would be taking it slow with the classes and see how much I can handle with work. It might take me alil longer than usual. U believe there is 10 prereqs before nursing school? Not sure if I wanna follow into ccp nursing or somewhere else yet. Any advice?

[Danad320]

I also looked up online what prereqs I need but will ccp let me know exactly what ones I do need before I take ones I don't have to? Sorry. I new at all this

Hi Danad320,

Below is exactly what is required for the program. I pulled it directly from the CCP website for you. I have also included the link in case you want to read through the other information that might be useful on that page.

Here is the link: Nursing | Community College of Philadelphia

No need to be sorry, I hope this helps!!!
