Pasadena City College ADN Program Fall 2021

Hello all. I wanted to start a thread for anyone applying to the RN program at PCC this fall. The application period is 4/1-4/15. I applied in the Spring and was an alternate so I retook a course to get 5 more points. I believe I will have 85 now. I saw that the website says we need to resubmit our transcripts each time we apply. Does anyone know if this to the admissions office as well, or just uploading them to our application? Thank you and good luck!

Update to my own question. I spoke to admissions and records today and my transcripts are on file. I will need to upload them to the application but I don't need to send them to the school again....in case anyone's in the same boat as me ?

Awesome, thanks for the info @jr624666. First time applicant here, awaiting the application period to open up this week. Good luck!

Looks like they changed the application period to 04/05-04/19...

This will be my second time applying. I was an alternate last application period with 78 points. I took one of the prereqs that I was missing to boost my score up to 83... I'm crossing my fingers that it will be enough! 

Good luck to everyone!

I was on the alternate list last semester and I retook Chem so now I have 85. Hopefully we can get in

Hi everyone,

I just checked the site and in selection criteria: category 3, they have listed the critical thinking courses. Are we supposed to completed all of those courses?

Hello everyone!

are we supposed to also apply directly to the college or do we only submit the nursing application?

We do not have to complete them all to apply.

You are awarded 5 points for each one completed, so it is better to have as many as them done by the time you submit your app.

hi everyone! I'm doing the application RN and it says to upload official transcripts to the online form but printed official electronic transcripts become "unofficial". so what exactly are they looking for? I'm guessing they want us to scan in hard copy official transcripts but that would make it unofficial as well??? I'm so confused haha

I ordered electronic official transcript and upload it directly. You don't have to print it out
