Hello everyone!
I have not seen a forum for COC's Fall 2021 ADN program, so I decided to make one for all applicants to ask questions, share stats, and talk about anything relating to the application process.
Hello! Yes, for CSULA they said they rejected me because of my TEAS score. Apparently they look at each individual score/subject and said they wanted a minimum of 80% , which I find sus because when they first sent me the reason why I was rejected they told me my prereqs were incomplete.
These are my stats:
GPA: 4.0 (Cumulative + pre-reqs)
TEAS: 84%
Bilingual
I do not have work experience / not much volunteer experience
I was rejected by most of the CSUs I applied to (I'm thinking maybe because of my TEAS score), although I am still waiting for CSUB and UCI + CCs. I'm really hoping I get into a program, doesn't really matter where LOL ? I'm getting discouraged because I do not want to take a gap year but I hope it all works out for all of us!! This is my first time applying to COC's program!
Oh my gosh! At least 80 in each category? That’s so competitive! I wonder if that means 80 percentile in each category at least... b/c I had higher 80s to 90s percentile wise. In previous years, people with 3.9 GPAs & 84+ TEAS got in. I feel like a factor could be the selection pool widened this year b/c the applicants consisted of freshmens, sophomores, & transfers. It used to be only sophomores current students & transfers. Did you write an appeal?
Honestly, with your stats, you’ll make it somewhere. Your stats are very good for CSUB! Best of luck ❤️ It’s also my first time applying to nursing programs in general. I applied to a few CSUs, CC bridge programs, & USF ? Wishing for the best!

Also, I was reading the scholastic eligibility thing on COC's nursing website and it says "students must have a minimum required score of 70 to be eligible for admission"... Does that pertain to the score from the multi-criteria screening points?? Or is that a different one?
I think so... I believe most people accepted usually have 70+ points. Usually, those accepted have higher 70s to 80+ points.

Yes! That's what they said the cutoff was... I messed up on the science part and got a 78-79% so I think they factored that in. I did send an appeal and yeah they said my application remains denied LOL..! I am trying not to think too much about it but hopefully I get accepted somewhere! UC Irvine does not require TEAS score but they require tedious prereqs which I focused on ? and forgot about the TEAS haha! I am hoping to get into CSUB but the waiting game is killing me because apparently they won't send acceptances out until the Summer ? Wishing you all the best too! Can't wait for all of this to be over! Good luck!!

Oh my! When did they reply to you? & how long did it take? Did you email multiple times to get their attention? They haven’t replied to me yet & I sent my appeal on the 17th when I got my unfortunate letter.

I think they replied to me just this weekend -- I think the 27th, Saturday. I also sent my appeal on the 17th so it took them around 10 days to reply. Hope it all goes well!

I wonder why it's taking a while for them to reply to my appeal ?. It makes me so nervous. I think I'll check up with them when I get accepted into a program first, so I can have a peace of mind even if they deny my appeal. Thank you for replying to me! I hope you get into UCI ?

Maybe they are really looking into yours and hopefully deciding on accepting! You are always welcome!! and thank you so so so much, that means a lot ? Also do you know if the invitation to take the TEAS / send scores from COC are being sent exactly on the 31st or even before or after that? I sent an email and was told to expect them by the 31st.

Yeah, they told me "by" 3/31, so I assume by Wednesday..
Nope ? I think it's b/c it's Cesar Chavez Day. Also, Boba, I got a reply to my appeal. Oof, remained denied. It's fine I guess.. I've committed to another BSN program that is only 2.5 years.
