Collin College LVN to RN Summer 2023

Updated:   Published

Hello, 

I wanted to create this forum for all LVNs applying into the bridge program at Collin College. Hopefully we can keep one another updated and level headed during this process. Please comment below, we can provide each other with needed info, admission emails, TEAS scores and program points.

Based off the website it says it has to be 65% or higher and atleast 50% and above in science and reading. I'm the exact same way about mine this is about to be the longest wait...

Thanks for your response, 

Yes, I know that mentioned on their web site, but I need to know if you heard from the previous cohorts about how many points do I need to be accepted.

I am having about 18 points, is this should be enough or do I need to repeat the TEAS test?

I would search through old threads and compare to those who were accepted etc. some threads they said how many points they had when they were accepted etc because I'm not sure. You can also probably spread to an advisor at the school as well.

Hi everyone - looks like we're all in the same boat! I scored in the 70s on my TEAS, is that what you guys scored? If everyone is around the same then there's no need to worry about retaking it. Im so nervous and I havent applied yet. I'll be applying in the next few days. From what I understand there is nothing to deliver in person - its all online. I've heard negative things about the program.... I hope its not all true. I also saw that lecture days are 3 days a week and two clinical days? is that correct? or is it just one clinical? I wish they had an information session because I have so many unanswered questions! Thanks guys!

I made a 72.7 on mine I'm praying it's enough. I also called today and they lady explained that as of now they are going on Monday/Tuesday and clinical will be at the end on Monday/Tuesday as well....I'm hoping it stays that way because I want to work while attending the program. I submitted my application in January it's a longgggg waiting game so ready to know.

Thanks for replying!! ? Oh wow that's interesting. So two days for lecture and clinicals after lecture? So that means the clinicals won't be 12 hours. I remember hearing the clinicals were 12 hour shifts on different days. Thanks for the information! I'm sure I'll think of a million more questions to ask them once I call LOL. Your score is good! That's awesome you already applied, that's a big relief! Best of luck!

I'm not sure what my score is but I think a lot of it depends on the scores of everyone who applies. I have looked at other programs, and it looks like everyone is lowering their standards. I see a lot of schools that are now accepting people with sciences that are older than five years. Also, it looks like the scores in general have gone down. I'm not sure what this means?

What about the starting date of this program? anyone knows if it will be in July or August?

It will be the Summer if you apply by the Feb 28th day. August is considered a fall semester.

so, it should start at the beginning of June

I think so because my LPN program was a Summer program and started in June but you can call up there to be 100% sure
