COS Nursing Program Spring 2019

[R.murillo]

So, is there anyone on here that has applied to the College of the Sequoias nursing program for the Spring 2019 cohort? If so, are you feeling confident about getting accepted?

I applied and I'm 50/50 on acceptance., is this your first time applying ?

[R.murillo]

Yeah, it's my first time. I tried to find something about our cohort on here and only found the past two cohorts talking about things. Based on what they were saying, I feel somewhat confident... only because some people were sharing the amount of points they were applying with and then replied later that they got in. I have a little more points than the ones who got in, but you never know! We're getting close to getting our letters, thankfully. Is this your first time?

[Hellonurse85]

Ok, yeah I've been looking at other cohorts too! As I don't see much for spring 2019 :/ it's my first time applying but I also applied at another jc letter are all expected to go out the same time. My points are a bit better than what I've seen as well. I think I have like a 69 with the teas .. I scored the minimum on teas :/ it was rough. But my science gpa is like a 3.3. How's yours look?

[R.murillo]

I know, right? Spring 2019 cohort seems shy so far... I've already seen a fall 2019 cohort facebook page! lol I didn't apply for another program, so fingers crossed. I think you have a pretty good shot with 69 points! Did you get points for being in the health field already? Since, I would think getting the minimum on the TEAS would mess your points up pretty bad.. I didn't want to take any chances, since I don't have any experience, whatsoever. So, I went crazy on the TEAS and got a 92 and got A's in the sciences... At least, if I don't get in, I know I did everything I could lol

Yes I've been in the healthcare field for the past 8 years plus I already have a degree etc so that point system def helped me out.. I got all A's in science accept 1 got a B+ :/.. do u stay near the school? Hopefully we both get in. This waiting game is driving me crazy!!

[Hellonurse85]

Good teas score btw :) I suck at testing my nerves gt the best of me and the time clock lol

[R.murillo]

Oh Wow, 8 years!! Amazing! I get pretty intimidated by the thought of being in class with a bunch of people with experience.. Those darn B+'s are the worst, who was your teacher for that one? haha and how did you guess I'm near cos!? I guess it's on the list of top reasons why I wouldn't want to go anywhere else lol I do hope we both get in! I'll definitely be on here to let you know when I get my letter. This is the hardest time I've ever had waiting for something.

[Hellonurse85]

I took a&p at Azusa pacific univ. And in A&P I got a B+, I live 45 min from the school so I've applied other places like Lancaster antelope valley. I also have all my classes done as if I was going to the BSN program because that's the route I was going until I took the teas and didn't score so well. Yes, I will keep you updated as well. Positive vibes and thoughts in the air lol with this waiting game.

[R.murillo]

Ooh ok, yes, tests that big are bound to break people.. and I'm sorry you live so far away, such a drag to have a long commute. Yes, positive vibes!!! thank you for sharing!!

I have been trying to comment on this but had forgot my password. I have been waiting forever it feels like as well. I heard there was a lot of applicants, so i tried calling to ask how many people applied and got voicemail. anyone else happen to have called to ask them? I got an 82 on my TEAS and all As and two Bs i believe on my sciences. I dont have prior experience so that kinda of lower my overall score, but im super nervous. based on other posts i found they had received their letters last year about the end of september and not october 1. so guess well see.

[Hellonurse85]

Great teas score! I think you should be good w/ that and ur science GPA. I have a lower teas but pretty good science GPA & work experience etc. I think given the field all school programs have high number of applicants.. I see other applying for years before getting in. I hope this isn't the case for us:) is this the only school you applied to ??
