I've applied to Fall 2018! Well, I sent my application in, but they will give me a date when to take my TEAS exam. I'm wondering since we applied so early, if they'll let us know right away if we got accepted or if we will have to wait until the end of spring term?

I believe that they will let you know before April because that is the last month that you can take the teas and after you take it they will have you do your background and let you know if your accepted but if you get all that done early they will let you know sooner. I have been accepted to the spring.

Awesome! Congrats! You'll have to reply back after your first semester for some tips for me! Haha. Okay cool, i'm hoping to take my TEAS exam in January (assuming i start studying like now) lol. And if you dont mind me asking, what was your GPA? I"m wondering how hard they look at that? Mine is a 3.8!

I'm planning to apply to Fall. I'm currently finishing up my CNA license (will be done next month). I also have to retake the TEAS - I scored an 85 the first time, but they won't accept it, because it was taken at a different school. I do know they now use a cumulative GPA -it's not just your CCC GPA. Hopefully that isn't too strict of a requirement. I had a rough go when I got my Bachelor's degree and my GPA isn't where it should be.

My biggest issue so far has been dealing with the Registrar. He's been really rude in every email correspondence I've had with him. Today he wrote a snippy email saying I never sent in high school transcripts, which I did months ago, and would have to take the GED... Hoping my experience improves from here!

I hope so best thing to do is take your sealed transcript up to the school yourself and get a receipt. Thats the way I did it.

So I called the Registrar's office and the receptionist said all of my transcripts have been on file since October. She said he clearly never checked my file before sending me that email.

I also retook the TEAS for MXC (since they wouldn't accept my original score) and got an 85 again.

Nice! Let us know if and when you get accepted into the nursing program for fall 2018! I am having to resend my transcripts in, again. I'm going to do it in person and get a receipt since they tend to lose stuff. I'm also studying for the TEAS exam too. Only 100 more pages to go haha

I just got an email from the registrar that the nursing admission committee granted a concession for my low Bachelor's GPA and received a link to the background check. I hope this is a good sign!

Ahh yay! Let us know how it goes! I have my TEAS exam this Friday! The only thing i'm worried about is the English section! Apparently I suck at english haha

I'm sure you'll do fine! I thought the TEAS was pretty easy overall. It's not as complicated as the practice tests. The second time I took it, because they wouldn't accept my first score from another school, I was finished with the whole test in 2 hours.
