Golden West College Fall 2016, Spring 2017

Published

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to start a thread for everyone applying to GWC this month so we can answer each other's questions, share our points, and check status' if we wind up on the alternate list.

Good luck everyone!!

Ugh, I have 61 points, and I'm seeing some of you alternates have already been offered admission and you have around 62 and up. I emailed the office and they will not tell me the points they have for me. It's so frustrating. Perhaps my points aren't really as high as I counted??? I don't understand why I haven't been sent an email yet.

Maybe they give priority for certain things, like degrees, TEAS score, or classes completed. Don't give up hope!!

What were some classes that you took that you have completed? Like what classes do they recommend us to take before entering the Fall 2016 program (that is if I get in) just so I can get ahead of the game? I took pharmacology and the other requirements and just wanted to make sure if I need to take any class before starting the program because I wouldn't want to be behind. Because I know Santa Ana College recommends us to take pharmacology and nursing process this summer before starting the fall program. I am not sure about Golden West College. Thanks

Along with the biology and eng 100 prereqs, you also have to take these for the ADN, and it's beneficial to have them done ahead of time.

I'd just like to let you guys know that I contacted SON office two days ago, withdrawing my acceptance. They should offer my spot to an alternate soon. Best of luck! :)

I had 51, could've gotten 56 but my AS was pending at the time. How many points did you apply with?

I believe it was only 45, believe it or not. I only applied with those points in hopes of random selection, but some how was chosen to be an alternate. I guess points were low for this application period.

i had asked about that "random selection" thing they wrote on the website, but the people in the office told me that they never do that. they always just go by highest points. I know they had a lot of declines for spring, so keep you hopes up!!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to let you all know that I got an email on Monday last week about getting into the Spring 2017 semester. I had about 62/61 points I believe. So keep your hopes up! :)
