OCCC Fall 2020

Published

Is anyone else applying to OCCC for the fall? I am nervous because I couldn't take the TEAS test or Accuplacer due to the COVID-19. I had to submit my ACT scores from 20 years ago tog et partial preference points. But, my math was so bad then and I don't want it to count against me. Anyone else in a similar boat? It's pretty anxious in mine :)

How did you get your old ACT score? Is yours official or just what was on the ACT website? I just logged on to the ACT website and uploaded that test score. I'm worried because it says it isn't an official report though.

I ordered my ACT score and had it sent directly to OCCC so that it would be official. There is an option on the website to have it sent to specific colleges and that is what makes it official

Now that the deadline has passed I am anxiously awaiting hearing back! Has anyone heard if they they are expecting it to take 4-6 weeks like normal or will it be rushed considering the extended deadline?

I’m anxiously waiting too!! I’m so nervous to hear back. I didn’t have very many points, but I’m hoping other people are in the same boat because of the pandemic. I haven’t heard anything about when we should hear back.

I’m applying with between 14-16 points. Kinda hard to determine the exact number since some of the requirements changed a little. I emailed one of the advisors when calls/emails might start so I will update as soon as I know!
