El Centro Spring 2018 Nursing Program Hopefules

Hi guys,

I'm going to apply RN program for spring 2018 too. I just took hesi test last week, and I got 3 points for English, 7 points for a&p, and 7 points for math. I'm applying with total 43 points. Omg I feel so nervous because only top 60 students will be chosen. I hope my score is enough competitive. I'm also thinking about using this hesi result to apply LVN for fall 2017 as my second choice. Notification of LVN is sooner than RN. If I were passing the LVN, I would study and wait the result of RN. I think at least if I fail the RN, I did not wast time for waiting. Well, guys could you please have any advice for me? I'm so confused and not much confident. >"

That's a good amount of points!! I'm only applying with 40... I'm applying here and Grayson for the spring. Hoping to get in somewhere!

Hi, thanks Chrissy. Is the hesi test in Grayson different from El Centro? I apply only El Centro, and hopefully I can get in too.

Anyone here know about immunization requirement? For the Hepatitis A do they require both 2 shots before the deadline or just the fist one? I see each shot is given at least 6 months apart. arrgh

I believe it's the same test. You have to have all shots completed before you apply. I couldn't apply for this fall because I didn't have my Hep A completed before the application due date.

Oh. Students can submit the titers if we don't have immunization, right?

"Hepatitis A:

a. Two (2) Hepatitis A shots (0, 6 months) OR

b. Positive Hepatitis A Total Antibody titer"

"Applicants may also submit titers, blood drawn to check for antibodies in your system from prior immunization or infection, as proofof immunization "

Yes, mine came back negative so I needed the shot.

Grayson' HESI is six hours. And there is no A&P.

One month update as I promised. I got into El Centro with 31 point ( they did not count my speech), but droped my place as I'm starting Collin. If Im not wrong people passed with 30 too.

congratulations!!!! I will be applying for spring 2018. I am so nervous about the hesi. I will be taking it on June.

Just sent in my health records to Sentry. They emailed me saying my health application is complete. Not sure if that means I have everything? Oh and I hand turned in my nursing packet! Whoop! Can not wait until October!

Awesome! I was told that Sentry MD can take from 2 to 4 weeks to let you know that your application is complete. Maybe they are not that busy.

I just found this thread and wanted to let you know that there is a way to fast-track your Hepatitis A vaccination and actually do the two doses 1 month apart instead of 6. I just told my doctor that I needed them done sooner for nursing school applications and he put me on the fast-track. The vaccine might be a bit different, so I'm not sure if it would be more expensive or not. Just wanted to throw that out there!

I'm applying to El Centro for Spring 2018 and also to Collin. Good luck to everyone!
