Hey everyone! I know we're a few weeks out til applications are accepted, but I figured I'd kick this off sooner than later. Who's applying for the CEP program next month?
They pushed the application dates back due to the COVID 19. Are you guys having any trouble talking to an advisor?
Where are you guys going to apply?
GPA?
HESI scores?
Overall points?
I'm applying to EMCC first choice, GCC second choice, and PCC third choice with ASU.
GPA 3.61
HESI Eng 91.33
HESI Math 98
No prior degree
Overall points 82.77
I am applying to EMCC as my first choice!! My GPA is a 3.68, my HESI English is an 88, my math is a 94, and I have an associates for an extra 2.5. If I calculated correctly, I should have around an 84.2!! I applied last semester with a 76, so I am so happy I was able to retake classes and my HESI to bring my score up. I am hoping it is enough to get in this time around
Just now, rmgirl said:I was calculating my GPA with my whole classes instead of calculating it with only the required classes LOL I am glad the advisor helped me with that.
Just so you know, different university partners calculate your GPA differently, so you could potentially have higher points by going with a different school! Good luck!

Just so you can be 100% sure of what points you have. I went from what I though it was 81.05 to a high 78 points ? I am still going to apply since there might not be a lot of people applying this cycle due to COVID.
anyone out there applying with a 78?
Which university are you applying to? and how were you able to find contact info for an advisor?

Not op, but the contact info for an advisor is on the main Maricopa nursing CEP page there are brochures for the different universities and you can find contact information in there.
I am applying to GCU. I am a little discouraged because my points are low but if I do not get in this cycle then for Dec cycle I will have my AA completed and that would help my points by 2.5. So we shall see how this cycle looks like.
I might retake the HESI but I don't feel like paying the $122. I paid $40 at EMCC in Feb and I was going to retake it this month but of course now I can't.
I wish everyone the best of luck!

You never know what could happen, especially with Covid maybe there won't be as many applicants? But if you end up needing to retake the HESI, I ordered this book from amazon and it was extremely helpful, especially for the math section.

I received an email from EMCC that there is a place to go take the test but it is $122

That’s what I was thinking too! Honestly I hope that happened because it will increase my chances of getting in. Kinda messed up but hey it’s competitive out here ! Plus this field of study is not for the weak LOL
