John Tyler - Fall 2016

Published

Who is planning on applying for the JTCC programs for Fall, 2016?

I'm only applying to the hybrid track (thanks to my little kiddos at home, lol)!

Does anyone know if it's advantageous to apply to only one track or two both?

Hello BMommy5! Make sure to look at your National Composite Percentile, that is what they will use to rank you against other applicants. You need at least a 45 national composite percentile in every subject to apply. I scored a 98 for mine overall, I don't remember each subject's score though.

Does anyone know the hours for the nursing education center? I tried looking online but couldn't find it. I still haven't been to pick up my ID!

The gentleman in the security office at the NEC said that there is usually someone there until about 3 or 3:30. The number for the security desk is on the website. :)

Hey guys! for those of you who got in, what was your TEAS score? I got a 73% Adjusted individual score. I am thinking i may need to retake it after studying some more to get a higher score?

kaiwahine is right. It's not your AIS that counts, but rather your percentile.

But to answer your question, I had a 93.9% AIS, and 99th percentile overall. I also scored 99th percentile in all content areas, except for math, where I scored in the 96th percentile.

Any idea what we are supposed to wear to the class meetings on Mon, Aug. 22?

I was thinking the same thing hmfog. Not sure, I think we only wear scrubs to skills labs and clinicals, but I'm not 100%. Hoping they will send an email when it gets closer to starting with some information.

I'm pretty sure the first day of lab, Tuesday the 23rd, is the first day we need to wear scrubs - that's what I recall from orientation.

Does anyone know the week in which we start our NUR 111 clinical days, and stop having labs on Tuesdays and Wednesdays?

Has anyone else already completed their UDS? I'm worried because I haven't received any instructions for it still. I sent a message to Castlebranch over a week ago and still haven't heard anything. Getting a little worried so close to the 8/5 deadline.

I had to call them directly, once I did I the instructions within 15 min. Good news is once you take it, the results only take about a day and will update in CB on their own!

Hey guys, this is the first time I've posted in this thread. Looking forward to seeing everyone soon! I was wondering - did you all look at the first 2 weeks topics/chapters that L. Mueller sent out in that e-mail? As she warned, they didn't match in the new editions & even looking through all the chapter titles it was unclear which to read instead. I just sent her an e-mail today asking if she could possibly send the updated assignments when she returns to her office. I'm so worried about all the required reading for the program and having time/focus to get it all done. :/

I got her email but am not able to begin the reading yet as the bookstore doesn't accept financial aide payment for two more weeks!! If people are starting to read already I'm worried I'll be starting behind the curve!

Well I certainly wasn't gonna start ready in July, lol, but thought I'd start two weeks before classes. But if she doesn't reply with the new assigned chapters no one can start anyway. I took out a loan to include books but paid out of pocket so I could get them now. Then I'll get reimbursed later when they disburse the extra funds not "used." Really silly financial aid can't be used towards books until the last minute. No one can prepare ahead that way for classes.
