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

Published

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!

Does anyone know if we’ll have to report to school on the other days? My class is T/R, but does that mean I’ll also have to be there M/W? I remember her mentioning something about having to go to lab for practice or something like that, but I wasn’t sure if it applied to the normal semester. I have to make time for all the lab/vaccine requirements, so I’m hoping we don’t with the exception of cpr/fit test.

Only go to your class schedule which is tue/Thursday for you and go to the date you signed up for cpr and fit test. For spring we will all have fundamentals theory on mondays and either tue/wed or Thur/fri for lab depending on which date you signed up for.

Does anyone here have their fit test and CPR tomorrow?? Are we supposed to wear uniform??

Honestly, I’m not sure but I would guess Not, since it’s not lab time.

Does everyone have their lab manual? My order has not yet been shipped.

Well that’s what I was thinking too, but don’t want to get yelled at if I don’t. Oh well, I guess I’ll find out tomorrow.

Nope, no lab manual.

Not yet, mine will arrive till Tuesday.

That’s what scares me about tomorrow, getting yelled at for any lil thing lol

I ordered at evolve.elsevier.com and until now they haven’t shipped my order yet.

Hello everyone,

to those who have class tomorrow, are we going to wear uniform? I’m guessing yes, because we have lab the same day?

Just to be safe, I’m gonna wear uniform tomorrow.

Does the shoes need to be all white including brand names or Logos.
