Pasadena City College Fall 2017

Published

I was wondering if anyone applied there. I also applied to:

CSUEB

Los Angeles Pierce

Los Angeles Valley (once their apps open on April 11th maybe)

LA county Allied health

COC (I really doubt I get in because I did 2 attempts on the teas)

Glendale Community college

STATS:

OVERALL SCIENCE GPA (3.33)

OVERALL GPA (3.56)

TEAS VI: 72.7%

I know it's early, but I want an early start. I just need to get into a nursing program before my pre-req expire :/ My best bet so far for me is Allied health, GCC, Pasadena, and maybe Pierce

Well today I received an email saying for PCC I'm an alternate. I was very surprised because Idk how many points I have. It was confusing.

its a good thing though, you at least got an email. Did you do good on the TEAS? i didn't do so good and thats the one of the reasons why id probably wouldn't make it, also having a bachelors helps out too, its 20 points alone for having a bachelors while an associates its just 5.

Hi, I know I'm joining this discussion really late but, today I received an email stating that I was selected as an alternate. Would any of you guys happen to know how that works and what the likely hood of me being given a spot is?
I would say very likely because PCC sent out their admission emails 6 weeks late. Most people have already committed to their programs. How many points did you have?

From what I read, you're on a wait list. If you're first you'll take the spot of someone who was originally accepted and declined PCC. The list keeps on moving and so on.

If you dont mind me asking, what was your score total?

Well I guess my theory is correct! Those who were not accepted/waitlisted should get a rejection email tomorrow. I haven't received any emails so that's probably what I'll be getting tomorrow :/

I guess we'll be on the same boat :(

Hi! I didn't count the number of points, but I do have my Bachelor's, I received mostly A's and B's in my prerequisites. My teas test i got a 78% overall. I hope that helps!

@cjprenurse Why were you confused? and how many points did you have if you don't mind me asking

PCC does not give you your place on the alternate list. You just have to sit back and wait for the call. There were students admitted 2 weeks before the program started last semester.

Because it didn't say my alt number and the whole how once you receive an email saying your in you have 24 hrs to respond. I honestly don't know how many puts. I have clinical experience but no license and I only have my Associates. I got a 72.7 on the TEAS.

I also got credit for being first generation college student and all that jazz

Does the teas score matter? If you have your bachelors, a teas score wasn't even required.

i am also an alternate. hopes up everyone

It wasn't required in the past for bachelor degree holders. Starting Spring 2018 it is required for everybody. They updated their website to reflect this.
