Jefferson State Community College Fall 2015 Applicants

Published

I wanted to start a thread for all who are planning on applying to the Fall 2015 nursing program. I feel it will be very helpful in the process. I just moved to Alabama in May of last year & was originally going for Physical Therapy (not assistant, actual therapist). Well that has fallen through & I feel led to go the nursing route. I already have a bachelors degree from another college so all my prerequisites are done (just wished I would have done a little better -hince my PT problem). I have signed up for my TEAS test for February 5th so hopefully if I don't get what I want I can retake it in time for the application. I emailed one of the advisors at the Shelby campus & she said the average applicant is at 60% /90pts. When I calculate that up it doesn't seem like much. So my goal is to make around 85% or more, but we shall see. I just know I need to do VERY,VERY well on the TEAS to make up for my grades not being all A's.

How about anyone else, where do you all stand with applying this fall? Are you doing full time, night-weekend? Which campus are you all applying to?

I really want to call but have this irrational fear they will put a mark by my name or something ridiculous. í ½í¸³

I don't think there is anything we can do right now. It is what it is. We just have to pray it was worth the wait!

I am out of words now. I can't believe this. I just keep saying that no news is good news. But I'm tired of saying that now, especially when others are getting into programs who's deadline was AFTER ours.

I envisioned it happening while I was in class tonight! I would just have to leave, or at least have A PRAISE BREAK!!!!!

Yes girl! I will definitely be celebrating when the news comes in. Honestly, I am past the point of worry or anxiety, I am just mad and want to know one way or the other. Registration is in less than 48 hours!

Yes, I'm at the upset stage myself. I'm like this is really not FAIR.
