PCCC (Passaic County Community College) Evening program 2020

Published

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone on here has applied to the PCCC Nursing program either this year or past years? If so, how many points did you accumulate to get accepted and when did you receive the acceptance letter? I applied by the deadline of October 1st and am still waiting to hear back via mail as to whether or not I am accepted.

Did you apply to the daytime option? For the evening option (spring 2020), the application deadline was October 1st, 2019. I accumulated a total of 16 points and was accepted (I believe the max points possible is 20). I had a few friends who had 11-14 points and were unfortunately rejected.

I applied for day option. But I still need to take the preq. What portion of the teas you took and when did the school notify you to take the exam?

The TEAS tests for all academic skills but the program uses all except the science portion. I used the following website to study:

test-guide.com/free-teas-practice-tests

The school does not notify you to take the exam, when you apply you have to submit your test scores along with your unofficial school transcript (to show grades) in order to be reviewed for acceptance. If you are missing items they will email you within a few days from application submittal to let you know what you are missing. It's always a good idea to have everything done prior and send your application earlier than the deadline this way you have ample time to get everything in order. You have to pass the 3 sections (reading, math, english) of the TEAS with a minimum score of 50% in order to be accepted. Try and score higher than that if you have not yet taken the TEAS.

For whatever reason my response is showing up as "hidden" but basically they use the math, reading and english sections to give you points along with your GPA. The school does not notify you, when you apply you have to submit all of the documentation (test score from teas and unofficial transcript).

No problem!! Depends on which program you are applying to (evening or daytime). For the daytime options there are less pre req requirements as you can take classes along with the nursing courses. Check out their website and go to the nursing program - the website lists all the pre reqs you need for either daytime or evening option and shows you how to obtain the points. Let me know if you have questions!!
