This thread is for those of us who are applying for Spring 2014 entry into NVCC's online hybrid RN program. I know applications must be postmarked by October 18th in order to receive consideration. I've looked at past threads for hopeful students and it seems customary to post prereq. GPA and TEAS results, so I'll start:
Prerequisites Completed: BIO 141, 142, 150, and CHM 101. Prereq. GPA: 4.0
Prerequisites in Progress: BIO 101 (coursework will be completed by October 5th)
TEAS Scores: 97.6% in Reading, 100% in Math, 90% in Grammar
The only thing I'm worried about at this moment is making sure that my BIO 101 grade posts by October 18th. My instructor is definitely in my corner in terms of making sure that I meet the application deadline, but my experience with ELI has been far from pleasant (the only certainty with ELI is that Murphy's Law always applies).
And, if anyone who has been through this program is reading, I do have one question: is this program four truly consecutive semesters? That is to say, will it be Spring 2014, Summer 2014, Fall 2014, and Spring 2015? I know that they offer the two nursing classes required for the second semester (Maternal/Newborn Nursing and Psychiatric Nursing) in the summer (well, at least they did last summer). If this is the case, I am even more stoked to begin this program!
I am already an RN, but my fiance is looking to go to NVCC's nursing program. He's an EMT/medical assistant with a bachelor's degree in nuclear medicine. Just wondering if anyone knows what percentage of applicants are accepted. Also, does anyone know how reasonable it would be for him to work, part-time, throughout this program? I did an Accelerated BSN program and graduated in May, and was able to work part-time, but am not sure how the online portion works.

Hey guys,
I am already an RN, but my fiance is looking to go to NVCC's nursing program. He's an EMT/medical assistant with a bachelor's degree in nuclear medicine. Just wondering if anyone knows what percentage of applicants are accepted. Also, does anyone know how reasonable it would be for him to work, part-time, throughout this program? I did an Accelerated BSN program and graduated in May, and was able to work part-time, but am not sure how the online portion works.
Thanks for any insight.
