I've watched the video/pp like 3 times and answered the questions at the end and still have not received my application (checked spam and all), I've also tried to contact el centro about it (no response). Any suggestion on how to get the nursing application form/statement of student's responsibility form?
TIA

Search in google “el Centro nursing application” and there should be a result for an older information packet that has it attached at the end!

If you can’t find it, I’ll attach a PDF for you!

I see the one you are taking about and I was just affraid that the 'new one' would be updated but thank you I will just use the forms from the previous packet, best of luck to you.

edit: the older 2016 version still has sentryMD and older info on it. ***Is anyone willing to email me the updated version?*** If not I was planning on going up to the office tomrrow.

I applied last semester with the older one, I just didn’t get it because I didn’t have all of my shots! I don’t think it matters.

Ugh! The shots! I’m waiting for Castle Branch to update my last MMR before I take down my application. Has anyone heard how many folks have applied?

You can still take your application up there as long as everything is complete before the deadline!

I haven’t heard how many applications there are!

I guess I will take it up then. I just didn’t want it to be rejected for some reason and than I was stuck. October can not get here soon enough!! Good luck everyone!!

I totally understand! All of this is pretty scary. I wish we had answers sooner than October, but nothing we can do about it! Best of luck!

Hey! i went in today to turn in my application and sadly when i went last time, i got told the wrong information about the HESI (since I have already taken it, I thought I was ok, but Im not). So I have to retake and the guy said that the only place right now is Baylor, so I am driving down to Baylor on thursday to take it! So stressful! Anyways, he said that people with less than 30 points usually don't get accepted, which i have also heard this from people in the program as well. Also the lady I spoke to last time, said that right now there is only 15 applications on the person who goes through them desk. (this was last week, there might be more now; but still, 15 out of 120, i think we got this!)

Oh no! Why do you have to retake it??

So, I took it last year at Brookhaven (and I was in the program at brookhaven but missed the end of the semester HESI by 1 point, so i got dropped from the program). I got told that I didn't have to retake it because I got an all around score on the english part of an 82. But the only part that wasn't above an 80 was the vocab part. When I went to go turn it in, the main guy said that I had to have ALL parts of the english section above an 80. He saw that I was confused and stressed so he gave me Baylors number and I got registered to take it on thursday. If I don't get the grade I want, I will stay there overnight and take it again on friday. So much to do, so little time! Lol!

Thanks! I hope so! I studied for almost 2 weeks before and now I have 2 days!! I feel pretty good on the math and anatomy parts since I got above a 90 the first time, but the grammar and vocab just scare me haha! How did y'all study for the vocab and grammar part? maybe i can get some quick tips before i go.
