Hello! I noticed there wasn't a thread for students applying to Fall 2024 nursing program at NCC so I decided to make one! I am applying to the day program and have 155 points towards my application. Fingers crossed I make it in this semester.

Hi. I applied to the day program as well. is it true they add an extra 5 points for never being in a program? if that's true then I have 151 points. so nervous
@RNlife24
Hi!! I attended the virtual information session and I thought they said that you do get an extra 5 points for that BUT I saw someone else post in a different thread here that its not that you get 5 points for never having been in a program but that you don't lose 5 points- so now I feel unsure. It doesn't say anywhere in the info packet either way and I ran out of time to clarify during the session because so many people were asking other questions. I really hope that we do get the 5 points though because that is how I have 155. Otherwise I have 150. I really hope I get in either way and the same to you! Have you done all your prerequisites?

oh Mann yeah I've been getting mixed answers too I kind of want to ask admissions at this point because then I would only have 146 points not sure if that's enough . I only have 7 pre reqs as well what about you?
I have 8 pre reqs- all As except one C+ (bane of my existence LOL). The C+ was in A&P 2 which I am retaking now just in case I don't get in this semester so at least I'll have a better chance next semester. I am taking med ethics concurrently with that so it is going to be a busy semester. I would have taken pathophysiology this semester too which is the only other class I need but my current school doesn't offer it (I am applying as a transfer). Question- do you know if we apply to the nursing program but don't get in, do we still get admitted to the school in general? I wanted to take pathophysiology in person at NCC this fall even if I don't get into the program this time around.

Hi I applied also . Hoping to get in . I go to Nassau, I graduate in May with my AA. I'll find out about the 5 extra points next week. I know the more pre-reqs you have the better your chance. I was also told they look at science and math for TEAS. I'll clarify next week with the secretary. She's pretty knowledgeable.

heyy I applied for days not really sure how many points I have loll but I asked admissions and they said we'd be able to be matriculated at the school you'd just be any other major of your choosing or liberal for the time being till you apply for nursing again!
Here is the point system ...
TEAS points
93 and up is 15pts
80-92 is 10 pts
58.7-79 is 5
Guys I'm so nervous I check my email everyday knowing we aren't going to receive a decision til the end of April LOL this anxiety is too much. Im sure I have competition with people who have more points but I'm hopeful still.

Haha same! I check every single morning. I am in the same boat. Like I feel somewhat okay about my points but I know it could be better.
So glad to know I'm not alone feeling this way . 😵💫.
Did anyone ever find out if the 5 points os real? LOL
