My pre-req GPA is a 4.0 and my TEAS were 88.7%.

Never applied to a nursing program before and I'm a Nassau County resident. Not sure what that accumulates to points wise. Applying to the evening program.

That’s really good for sure you will get in .. I did not take the TEAS yet currently still studying but my GPA is about a 3.5 with 8/10 pre reqs done

I see some of you have taken Western Civ, did you take it in NCC and is that accepted for the nursing program?  If so what was the course number so that I can register for it.

Thanks

I ended up taking it at ESC just to get it out of the way. I believe NCC won’t take any other transfer Western Civ classes because usually those are 3 credits when they are looking for a 4 credit class.

So does that mean that they will not allow ESC credits for Western Civ anymore?

Has anyone taken the TEAS online?  How was the experience?  I took it before Covid in person and now I want to increase my score and will be taking it online in about 2 weeks.  Any tips?

They will take ESC credits for Western Civ. I originally tried to see if they would take a Western Civ class that I took at a different school that was 3 credits, but they basically said they were looking for the 4 credit Western Civ class at ESC as the prereq.

Does anyone know the points system that Nassau Community College uses to evaluate if you are accepted or not?  I know 4 points are given for an A in a class, how many points are given for the TEAS exam?

Does anyone know the rubric for admissions and can break it down for me?

I believe it's an A is worth 4 points, a B is worth 3 points, and a C is worth 2 points and than you multiple by the number of credits the class was. Ex: Statistics A = 4 points * 3 credits = 12 points.

If you're a Nassau resident you get +10 points and if you've never been in a nursing program you get +5 points.

With the TEAS, I'm not 100% certain. In an older thread, someone stated that they were awarding points based on each section separately, but I don't know for certain.

Ex: Proficient= 5 (58.7-77.3%), advanced= 10 points (78.0-90.0%), and exemplary = 15 points (90.7-100.0%)

Hey everyone! 

Applying to the Fall 2021 NCC nursing program. I have a 3.8 GPA and am not a Nassau resident. After this semester, I will have nearly all of the non-nursing classes done with mostly A's but I'm in progress right now with A&P2, Western Civ., lifespan dev., and biomedical ethics (I'm hoping the fact that these are 'in progress' will not affect my chances of getting in). I have a 76 on the TEAS which I'm slightly worried about- but if they are letting students in the way they did last semester, the amount of classes you have done is dominant over your TEAS score. 

Good luck to everyone applying! This will not be the first time I've applied to their nursing program, but my stats have improved since the last time I applied so my fingers are crossed!

Hi everyone! You all have really god scores and good luck on your application! I am hoping I have a shot but my TEAS score isn’t the greatest ?  Also, I am trying to apply but the application won’t load for me everytime I try to click the link. Is anyone having this same issue?
