I also applied to the prcn program this fall. I was just curious, if we dont get into the program...do we get our documents we submitted back? I had my instructor of my nurse aide course give a letter and it took a long time because he was busy with his classes. And if i dont get accepted i want to get it back so i can reapply for spring 2019. Do you guys know what happens if we dont get accepted first time applying? Or is this all your first time applying also..?

Goodluck to you all :)

Hi Kdaoang,

Unfortunately we do not get our documents back if we do not get accepted. However we do receive a letter stating if we got accepted/rejected or on the alternate list. I hope we get accepted though, if you don't mind me asking, what are your stats that you applied with to the program?

Hey, I made copies and sent my application because the girl at the front desk said they will not give back any submitted documents.

I work in a hospital but not as an NA so I attached my nurse aide course but with only 100hour completion even tho recently kcc has changed the nirse aide course hour requirement. Currently looking for a NA job. Good luck to you all!

Hi Mariee!

You have awesome grades! Yeah same here, my work experience doesn't fall under their requirements so I'm hoping for the best. However I did get a job at palolo as a NA so if I don't get in the I'll be prepared for next sem. Hopefully they'll make an exception because this was the first application period they changed the requirement.

[Jazzy321]

I'm getting nervous because letters go out next month. I really hope we get in though. The program gets more and more competitive each semester

Second time taking my TEAS. Was there a limit to retaking your TEAS? I will retake it for the third time.

I used to work at Wilson. Now I'm with Manoa cottage.

I like it here because they train you to pass meds. Looks good on your resume.

Anyone looking for work exp? I can refer you. :)

[Jazzy321]

Hi rpaguirigan0,

You have great grades so hopefully it will balance out. I believe you can retake the teas every 3 months. I used to work at Wilson as well! I didnt really like it there either. But it's great that you have a job in a facility. Did you meet the min 200 hrs ?

[rpaguirigan0]

I had no idea there was a 200hr requirement. My advisor told me there wasn't any. But I have been working at Manoa cottage FT for ~4months. So I should be good with the 200hr.

@jazzy321

By any chance, were you able to talk to an advisor about the 135 hr requirement. I wondered how strict they would be also, but I havent got the chance to speak with anyone before turning my app in. Hoping for the best!

Hey Jazzy321,

Thank you so much. I took the Nurse Aid at KCC so i should be met the requirement. sorry for the late response because i was not able to figured it out how to use this site. :)

@marieee

Yes I talked to one of the counselors but they said they're not sure how strict they'll be. It'll depend on how many qualified applications there are. If there's not enough then maybe they'll be less strict.
