College of the Canyons Summer/ Fall 2019

Hi there! I was looking around to see if there were any threads for COC Fall 2019 and found this. Has anyone received an "okay" to submit their Fall 2019 application yet? I submitted my request for pre-req evaluation about 3 weeks ago but haven't heard from them yet.

I am applying as well, but to the generic RN.

futurenmeine, I received my "okay" less than a week after I submitted my pre-req eval and all of my transcripts to admissions and records/course descriptions to the math and science office.

Did you hand deliver your transcripts and descriptions? I know someone who was having trouble with getting confirmation that her transcripts were received by admissions and records. Maybe it takes longer if it's all mailed?

I submitted my application this morning. Good luck to everyone!

Hi I applied last night for the LVN-RN program but they told me I had to be working for at least 6months I've only been working for 3. Kind of bummed.

Ah, I'm still waiting to receive the "okay" ? I called them last week and they said that they're "working on it" and they've received over 400 submissions.

I'm applying to the generic RN too. I submitted my pre-req eval on 1/10 and submitted all my transcripts electronically a few days before that too...I guess I'll try to call admissions & records to see if they've received my transcripts. It's been well over a month since I've asked for an evaluation lol...

At this rate it looks like I'll be having to submit on 2/26 if they don't give me an eval.

Does anyone know when we need to send our TEAS scores in if we have already then it? Do we wait until we are notified in March that we are moving on to the next step of the process (i.e. TEAS testing) or do we have to have them in by the deadline at the end of this month?

I have also applied to the general RN program. I went ahead and submitted my Teas scores since I had already taken the test earlier this month. It look over a month to receive a message allowing me to submit my application. I am eager to hear back....

RN2Bee2021 · Feb 26, 2019

I ended up just emailing them and they responded immediately to say that we should wait until the status update in March to send in the scores. That way, if we don’t qualify, we won’t waste our $28 sending in scores that they don’t need.

I am extremely impressed with how quickly they have returned my emails. Other schools either take a long time to respond or don’t respond at all.

How did you do on the TEAS, @scubalife?

I literally still haven't heard back about my pre-req evaluation. I submitted my request on 1/10. it's been way over a month and a half now. So I won't be able to submit my app until tomorrow...lol

That’s worrisome, @futurernmelne. Chances are that they don’t have all of the transcripts. If you have time, you may want to consider going to Admissions and Records to figure out what’s missing and bringing an extra set of transcripts. It’s such a hassle but it might be worth it.

Hi Bosoxgirl3358!

I got a 90.7% overall. I got lucky since I didn't even finish the math portion! How'd you do?

What other schools have you applied to?

I got an 84.7%. They don’t round up so I’m hoping that the 5 points don’t come back to haunt me.

I also applied to Pierce, Moorpark (the are going to reject my recency prerequisite petition so I don’t count them as a true option) and I will be applying to LAVC, and possibly Rio Hondo.
