Fall 2020 El Centro Nursing Program Applicants

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Hey Everyone!

I wanted to start a new thread for Fall 2020 applicants at El Centro, since I didn't find one already here. Let's see if we can help eachother out and answer some questions for eachother. Currently, I have 35 points, but will be applying with about 40, I believe. I'm wondering if that is competitive? Also, I need to get my physical, titers, and vaccines, but don't have health insurance. Any ideas where I can get them done at a decent price? I found a website but I am not sure if they will accept stuff from there....

No, not necessarily. Brookhaven is my first choice but El Centro is the back up if I don't get in to Brookhaven. Plus, I only live like a 5 minute drive from North Lake College.

how come you don't want to go to North Lake if you live that close?

That's what I meant. The program at North Lake is technically El Centro. My first location choice for the application is North Lake.

I wanted to know if I still needed to take biology 1406 after I’ve already taken both A&Ps. And if they still took my pharmacology even tho it didn’t match the same exact course number.

I thought Biol 1406 was a pre req for a&p(biol 2401). Unless you took it at another school... Maybe I'm just not seeing it, but I dont see biol 1406 listed anywhere on the packet, anyway. Did you take Pharmacology at another school? I emailed him today and asked him if I needed to have my transcript evaluated and need to submit an Education Plan Request, even though I've only ever attended DCCCD. He said yes. I also emailed the dean about my pathophysiology class(HPRS) that I took during the summer before they changed the packet, which changed it to RNSG) and she said it would be decided on an individual basis when they review applications/transcripts. I can fwd you the Education Plan paperwork if you'd like. If that's even allowed on this site? I'm not sure of the rules here. Hope this helps! ?

Yes it says it’s the prerequisite for biol 2401 but I’ve taken both already. I already took pharmacology 2300 I think it was called. Thank you so much for your help. I was beginning to think I would never get any answers. I called him twice and left messages and emailed him. If you are able to send me the paperwork it would be greatly appreciated!
