LCC nursing program

The cut off score for last year was 73 and not all of the 73s were admitted due to space. 280 applied, 160 got in.

If you see an advisor, they will give you all of that information. Good luck to you!

I am sure you probably got the answer to your question by now but for others who may be wondering, I believe everyone who had 78 or higher got in with quite a few 77's as alternates.

I emailed them a week ago actually and was told it was 77 points this year. Last year it was 73. Eep!

Yes it was 77, but some alternates with 76 and maybe even 75 may get in. Also, just FYI, the accelerated second degree program there jumped points from 45 to 52. It's a good program, but hard to get into.

I'm currently taking Physiology and Pharmacology at LCC. I will be applying to the accelerated program this coming June. After talking with an adviser a few weeks ago, the cut off scores are getting higher. Since the scores are going up, students are working to get more points prior to applying, raising the scores even more.

My recipe has been to 4.0 everything, I figure I can get accept lower grades once I'm in the program.

My pharmacology class is really showing who is serious and who isn't. About half the class failed (

If you're not currently working in the medical field, start volunteering someplace (it doesn't have to be medically related) 96 hours/year of volunteer work gives you an extra 2 points.

I agree that you really need to 4.0 everything and yes the volunteer points are a must if you have no experience. 2 points may not sound like much now but when you are applying, 2 points can me rejection or acceptance into the program.

I finished up my pre-reqs fall semester so I am going to be applying hopefully next week. Good Luck to all others applying this year!
