Thanks for the update!

I applied on 01/11 and got my email on 02/22. Scorpiodez, did you get your email yet? You said you applied 01/18, right? I imagine it will take a while if it's just one person.

I applied 1/18/2020 and I have not received an e-mail yet.

Thanks for the info!

I applied on 1/9 and didn't get my letter till the 2/25. Which both dates are not too far off from yours but I thought they were going in order from earliest applied. *shrugs shoulders*. Anyway, can it be May already!

OK yeah, I don't get it then. LOL. Maybe alphabetically? My last name starts with a G if that helps. LOL

I agree this is the longest wait ever!

OK, so they are not going by date then. Well, at least we know they are still working on them!

Does any one know or heard what their Phase 1 points cut off is? Perhaps a counselor mentioned to you how many points you should have to be considered for moving on into Phase 2?

I'm not sure what the point cut off is. I would assume it depends each round on the how many people apply and their points. They took the top 80 applicants from last year's round to Phase 2 to take the TEAS. After the TEAS, around mid-June, is when they accepted the top 32 applicants (Phase 1 + Phase 2 points) and applicants 33-80 were listed as alternates.

And I still haven't received an e-mail yet so I will forever anxiously wait LOL ?

Yes, so what counselors were telling me is that you need a 50 or 55 from phase 1 to really have a chance at making it into the program. She made it seem like that was including the alternate list as well. I am sure they are probably being honest but at the same time I have heard things that contradicts this according to a student who actually made it into the program last year. But, to answer your question what the counselor told me was 45 is the typical score they often see and 50 or 55 is the range you want to be in to even be considered. They also said they rarely get anyone in the 60 to 75 range and most people are 45s. Who knows for sure, but I am trying my best not to get my hopes up.
