Collin College ADN Spring 2016

[mylife7]

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.

Congratulations!!! Very happy for you! U deserve it!

I just got mine too but haven't opened it. Not feeling too good though because the letter seems very thin, doesn't seem like there's much in there but whatever happens I'll know it's for the best

Yes dont get discouraged yet! :) It was a pain having to retake a&p2 and micro just to get an A (i got an 88 and 89 but thats still a B for them) but now I realize it's all worth it.

The best letter I have ever received! I can't wait to start the program with everyone. This was my 3rd or 4th attempt and well worth the fight.

Thanks for the encouragement! Reason why I didn't get in was because I got a 4 on psb.

I am completely pissed. I have waited all this time to get a letter saying they are not even offering the bridge program for Spring. My application has been moved to the summer. I cant believe this.

I have been look at all of your posts and just got my letter as well. I know some people get letters that say they didn't have enough points and others are accepted, but mine says I was put on a waitlist! Has this ever happened to anyone before or do y'all know any extra info about a the waitlist that may be helpful to me? Thanks! And congrats to all who have made it in already!
