Hello everyone. I have been searching for a Collin College Nursing applicants for spring 2016 thread for weeks and I have not seen one so I figured I would start one my self: ) I will be turning in my application for the program this week and I wanted to share my story. I made A's in all my sciences. I made an A in English and a B in humanities, general psychology and life span psychology. I made a 6 on the PSB as well. I will be applying with 27 points because of the 3 B's I made in humanities and the psychology classes. Because I will only be applying with 27 points I am apprehensive about getting in. I have worked so hard and come so far for this moment, I will just have to give it to God. I've only taken my sciences once, which is good according to the nursing department as they are really factoring acceptance into the program based on taking your sciences once (they told me studies show those who take their sciences once and get an A the first time tend to do better in the program). However, I hope it's enough. I have children, I work full time and it took everything in me to get A's in my sciences and a 6 on the PSB. On the old point system I would be applying with 16 points (I know I need to get over it). I have been following the allnurses site for about a year and a half and I have had the opportunity to share in many wonderful experiences. Most of you that have posted had 4.0's and I've seen the joy you express when you get that acceptance and I am so happy for you all. I hope there is someone out there that applied and got in with similar applying factors and if so, wouldn't mind posting. I'd love to hear from anyone who will be applying or has applied for the Spring 2016 start and what your stats look like. Please do share. Best wishes to you all.
Hopefully though the receptionist isn't sure when they actually sent them out. Could have really gone out already. We won't know until we get them so I guess it's no point in speculating. We are all just anxious to know! Praying for peace and patience as we wait through this. Have a great weekend all!!!
Good morning everyone! I forgot to tell you all that it's official, the letters went out yesterday! Hip Hip Hooray! If you live close the letters could be here as soon as today. I wish you all many blessings and that you receive the news you are hoping for. Let's not forget to share our news! Have a wonderful day.

I kind of figured that as I went in and spoke to them back in July and the head of the department told me personally it would be around the second week of October before we got anything. It looks like she was definitely right! Oh well we have waited this long!! Hope to have it at least by next Friday!
