NCTC ADN Fall 2014

Nowirn2 · May 2, 2014

I put in for 2 separate degree audits and have received nothing back yet. After applying yesterday the secretary said it can take 6-8 weeks. Really! I think you have to keep up on top of this process as the ball could very easily be dropped. Self preservation if you want to think of it that way. I'm sure we have all worked long and hard so I'm not taking any chances.

I emailed ***** at Gainesville today, and she said the print out was fine.

From ******, "The degree audit doesn’t have to be official. A copy will be fine.

You won’t have to make an appointment. We are not open on Saturday, but we are here Monday through Thursday from 8-4:30 and Friday 8-3."

I guess I will head up on Wednesday.

Norwirn2, did you apply for the ADN program yesterday?

Yes I did.

Ladyflyer, I have a question for you about the application process if you don't mind. BTW, I live near Flower Mound in Argyle/Lantana.

So on my degree audit they used a class in which I made a C for my core elective, but I had many other classes they could have used with an A. So, this will affect my points if they base my application on the degree audit. How did that work out? Do you fill out your application and your own priority point sheet and will they let you chose the classes you wish to use for your core elective? Does that make sense?

I have been trying to get the answer to this, but Cindy wasn't sure.

Thanks!

Oops, I am not suppose to put names in posts.

Yes, I filled out my application and figured out my points based on my transcripts from all colleges attended. I gave my appl w/trnscpts when I handed it in. My degree audit has not been finished yet so I calculated it based on that.

By the way, I keep seeing ads posted within some of my postings. I do not endorse any of these products and I feel it is an infringement on my postings. Is anyone else noticing this as well?

I taked to the Allied Health Advisor in Corinth today & she pointed out that I had a class that I made a C in then retook for an A so she told me to be sure to use the A obviously on my points but to also point it out to them when do my application. However the A is what is noted in my degree audit. I would stop by and talk to the nursing advisor first before you do your application though and get their advice because once you hand it over it's out of your hands & you want the most points possible for sure!

True. I had to retake A/P1 because I changed colleges. I had Auchincloss better experience at Nctc!

I just printed my degree audit to go to Gainesville...and they did the same thing to me. They pulled a class I made a C in that they could have used others that were an A. The one C on my transcript & they stuck it on my degree audit. I'm kinda upset because that could affect me if they go by that degree audit! I will be stopping at the advisers and seeing about getting it changed, I have worked too hard to trust that they won't go by that piece of paper because when it comes down to getting in, we are all just the sum of our grades/test scores. Once I put in that application, it's out of my hands, I have to hand in what is 100% correct. Anyone else have issues or need corrections on their degree audit?? Any advise?

I don't know, I am going to ask about it tomorrow when I apply. I think I will have 11 priority points even if I don't get it changed but I am going to ask anyway to see if the degree audit is what they actually look at when verifying the calculation of priority points.
