El Camino, Compton, Cypress College Spring 2020 nursing application process

[Dub]

Hi everyone. I applied to El Camino College, Compton College and Cypress College. I was hoping we could help each other out in sharing information. This is my first time applying to any nursing program. All I know for now is that ECC is supposed to send an email to potential candidates to take TEAS on or around Oct 21. What I don’t understand is if we will get the invite around that time or if we will be TESTING around that time. It can be read either way. At compton, the lady at the front desk said they’d be behind one week for testing due to her being gone due to a death in the family. So she said that if I got an invite to take the TEAS elsewhere, to do it and then contact her so that she can tell me where to send it. All I remember from Cypress is that we should get an email by Dec 12 or so and to call the school if we don’t. But I don’t remember what they said as far as the TEAS. I guess I’m wondering if denial letters also get sent when invites for TEAS get sent. Anyway, I’d appreciate any feedback from anyone. Thanks!

Haha, y’all made me look to see if it said anything about books. I was told by director we’d be using e-books, so now idk.

So I haven’t read what it says and just posted lt. i’m assuming it will be the same for both classes??

But, geez!

I know we’ll gonna used ebooks. What I mean, is it required to buy all those 6 books (lab & lec) for just one class that will only last for a month? I wonder how much it will cost us to buy all of those ebooks. But I guess we won’t have a choice if all those ebooks are required.

@Dub thanks for posting the syllabus ?

We were told ebooks will be around $1500-$2000.

I received mine. If it’s been shipped then you should receive it within 1-2 days excluding holidays. Maybe you’ll get it this week .
