I know we're still a couple months out from the application opening, but I wanted to start this thread early for anyone applying to PCC's nursing program for Spring 2026!

I just took my TEAS exam this week....I didn't get a spectacular score and I don't have straight A's in my prerequisites but I am going to apply and hope for the best ! Good luck to everyone applying!

Also, does anyone know if we need to complete our covid vaccination requirements before applying? Or can we complete our vaccination after getting accepted?

I was about to start a new one but glad I found this first. Bumping this thread since apps officially open this week!! Hoping we actually get our accept/deny letters at a timely manner because the applicant class before us was waiting for over 10 weeks. Good luck everyone!!

Good luck guys! I'm applying with 83 points and I'm feeling a little discouraged after reading the last cohort's discussion - fingers crossed LOL

Just applied tonight and I hope by some miracle I get in. Good luck to everyone 🙏

Is anyone applying with an AP score from an exam prior to 2018? Was wondering if we need to request an official transcript sent to ourselves (to scan and upload to the app) or if sending (1) official transcript to PCC is sufficient. I already sent an official transcript to PCC from College Board a while back and it came with a student score report that was mailed to me. I wonder if this report is fine for the pdf upload on the app or if I will need to pay for an official one to be sent to me.

good luck everyone! I also don't have the best grades or GPA so im not really getting my hopes up but I am also applying just in case. the last cohort had really impressive stats compared to mine 😕

I would send it to yourself and upload it just in case

Good luck to us! My grades and GPA aren't spectacular. I got low points too...was expecting to apply with 75-80 but then life came up and I couldn't score those points. I applied with 70pts... but hopefully they over look that because I am getting A's in my courses now compared to my first years of college...

How many points did you apply with?

I also applied with 70pts! I'm in the same boat as you, I'm getting A's now and have a 4.0 from my 2nd college but a 3.0 from my first because life got in the way for me as well back then. I see so many students on here from the past applying with 80s and 90s in points so it's a bit discouraging but I hope we got this!
