Checking to see if there are any other applicants applying to elcentro spring 2017 program .. I'm looking to have 24 points before taking my hesi test Jan 2016 ..
I will be applying with 32 points for the Spring semester. I am nervous though as the second Hep A dose is required to apply. I received my first dose Jan. 19 before I applied for the Fall semester. I was sentry complete then. I didn't get in for Fall because I only applied with 19 points. So my question is... can I get the shot early or will I be disqualified because of a technicality of not waiting a few days?

Hi,
You are required to wait 6 months for the second hep A shot which would unfortunately be 4 days after the deadline. I wouldn't suggest getting it early because I would imagine that would disqualify you since its before the timeframe requirement they have provided. It can't hurt to call or send an email asking them just to be on the safe side but I would imagine you may have to wait and apply during the next deadline period.
I don't know about "harder" but students that score well on the HESI will ultimately be the ones to fill the allowed spots first. An 86 is awarded with 1 point, whereas a 96 is awarded with 7. That is such a significant jump in points.I applied for acceptance to start fall 2016 with 27 points (old point system). I'm super worried I wont make the cut. Our letters go out this Friday. If I dont get in I will reapply for spring 2017.
Good luck to you!
HESI Scoring, per the new packet is:
1 point = 80-84
3 points = 85-89
5 points = 90-95
7 points = 96-100
I will be applying for the Spring 2017 with 32 points. I have no idea if this is good or bad?
I don't think any of us know what is good or bad with the new points system, except if someone has 49 or 50 points, haha. We don't have anything to compare it to. Before they changed it, I had 35/40, which according to the posts on this site, I had a good chance because I was well above the cut-off. Now I have 42/50.
