Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

U.S.A. North Carolina

Published

Anyone submitting an application to the nursing program at WTCC this upcoming July for spring 2017? Wanted to connect with others who may be in my shoes. I'm still working on some prerequisites (TEAS and CNA) but hope to finish them up by May. I will be transferring most of my prerequisites in from another school.

Are any of you planning on going to the information sessions this month? I am curious about what they will say about the points for Fall admission during those information sessions.

Yes, my information session that I signed up for is on Thursday at 1:30. Are you going this month? The last time I did a information session was at least 2 years ago. Cant wait to find out info.

No, I'm not going...I'm working and I did an information session in December. I just really want to know what they say about the point range of accepted applicants and number of applicants versus what they accepted for Fall since the point system is so different now. It's like no one can guess what's going to be good enough. Please share what you hear!

I signed up to go to the information session on March 17 at 1:30 also ! I'm pretty nervous about applying being I don't have any of my bios completed. I have A's in Psy 150 , Psy 241 , HUM115 & Math 143 ...B's in ENGLISH 111 , English 114 , BIO 163 & CIS 110. I will be taking bio 168 this summer . I took my teas yesterday and did really bad !!!! 😞😞 I plan on retaking it in June . I've heard the spring isn't as competitive as fall . Does anyone know how true that is ?

Every year spring has been way less competitive than fall, so knowing what they accept for fall will give you a good idea of the high points for spring. I think last year fall was a minimum of 198 points and spring was in the 160s. But since they've changed the points no one knows what to expect. Let us know what they say tomorrow about the accepted points for fall!

Thanks ! And I will be sure to update everyone after the information session.

Any good information from the session today?

I'm dying for numbers lol :o I keep checking to see if y'all have posted anything...I think I'm giving myself an ulcer!

Sorry for the delay aperegoy ! There has been a lot of changes ! I saw that this thread was updated and saw your response so I didn't want to keep you waiting ☺️ I'll be able to give you a full update once I finish putting my little ones in bed but to answer your question about the points Mrs. Watkins said the points are possible going to range from 150-160 for the spring ! And also a plus !!! Any classes you take in the summer will count for points towards the spring !í ½í¹Œí ½í¹Œí ½í¹Œ you just have to turn in your new transcript after the summer semester is over. I'll give you more info once I'm finish with my kiddo ! I hope that eases your mind a lil till thení ½í¸

she didn't really go over much for the fall being we were spring applicants but they did leave a email for us to email any nursing advisor with any questions we may have. [email protected]

if you have any other specific questions ask away ! I want to help as much as possible.

This is great! Thank you í ½í¸Š I just know sometimes they mention they had X number of applicants for the fall and the accepted points were from X to X. I am really surprised she said Spring was looking like 150-160. Since they took away the 50 for the TEAS I thought it would be lower.
