Mira Costa / Palomar Fall 2018 RN program

Published

Hi guys! Just creating this thread for all of my fellow applicants for Mira Costa and Palomar College's 2018 Fall RN program(s). I figured we could talk TEAS and points and see where we stand among each other as well as past cohorts.

Goodluck to everyone!!!! :)

MCC should be sending out acceptance/denial letters within the next week or so, right? I'm getting really impatient! haha

I believe so! I was told last week of March so I'm hoping we get the letters next week or the week after

I was told the same thing and it looks like last year people ended up receiving their letters around April 6. I got an acceptance letter to Cal State San Bernardino a couple of days ago but that school is my last choice. I really want to go to MCC or Palomar.

Hi everyone,

I hope we hear back next week. I know Mallory said to call if we don't hear back end of March!

Only Mira Costa & Palomar!

Was wondering if this was a good sign...? When I applied last semester, I forgot to submit a Palomar transcript at MCC & they never mentioned it. Just sent me a denial email... But this semester, I received a call from Mallory a few days ago & asked to submit ASAP so they could "process" my application. I'm thinking that's good right? Why would they bother if I wasn't being at least sort of considered.. Thoughts?

I'm on the same page as you; I would think that if you weren't a competitive applicant that she wouldn't even bother contacting you? Ahh, I think that's a good sign! From what I've seen, it seems like most people in this application cycle have 75-85 points. I don't think I've seen anyone with 90+ points so hopefully we are ALL good!! *fingers crossed*

I know! I'm really hoping it's all of us receiving happy news! I work at the hospital that both Palomar and MCC have their clinicals held, so I'm really hoping that works in my favor too!

I know when I submitted my app she opened up all my transcripts and matched it to the prerequisites I had listed. Did they do that for you?

But yeah I think that they probably are considering you if they want you to follow up with that transcript :)

They did! Because I had taken all my pre reqs at the school I had listed (MSJC)

But I took 2 classes (non-pre reqs) at Palomar 3 years ago

I'm sitting around 84-85 points. Still haven't heard anything from Miracosta. Hopefully this week.

Spoke to the secretary at MCC, should hear back beginning of April (next week)

Does anyone know when palomar will be sending decisions out?

I think I had about 90 points depending on how many points they give me for language and life experience. I have a bachelors, relevant volunteer experience, 3.6 science, 4.0 fixed, language, a couple life experience points, and 88% on the TEAS.
