I think they are referencing their GPA, in terms of their science prerequisites. Your grades in other classes have no bearing on admission. So, your micro grade itself is not factored into your application, they only account for it being completed. You gain 1 total point for having completed all three prerequisites. However, last application cycle, they actually scored it a little differently, last term, you’d get one point PER prerequisite completed. So, I don’t know how they factor in points now for those who still have micro in progress!

That’s awesome, so happy you were able to apply and make it! Where did you move from?

Yay! Congrats! I’m a little nervous too, but I’ll deal with the anxiety once the program actually starts ?

You’re welcome!! I hope you make it in!

If you didn’t make it in, they will send you a rejection email, but it may come after a few days. I’m not sure if acceptance emails are still being sent out or not, but I’d call them and ask!

Got in as well!! Congrats y’all!

That’s a bummer!! Either way, you still have a solid chance, your TEAS score is high enough to balance everything out. Are you applying to any other schools?

Is the point system for LVN different? I know at Collin, the max points you can make is 22 for the traditional RN program. I am applying with 20.2 points.

Oh yes, private universities are notoriously expensive, that’s why I stayed away from them! It seems like a huge sham. It was a smart move for you to withdraw! There are far better and cheaper options, such as Collin!

You’re welcome! Where are you transferring from?

Hi! Yes, so they don’t actually start reviewing applicants until after the deadline date, which is today. Basing it off of the last term, the application deadline was June 5th, and people who made it in received their acceptance emails on June 30th. But, rejection emails were sent out later, I received mine on July 2nd. So, you should expect to her back from them within 3-4 weeks, in this case by the end of September! Best of luck to you.

Hi! It’s tough to answer, just because every application cycle varies! But, Collin is very competitive, so personally, I would retake the class. One point may seem trivial, but when it comes to a points based admission, it can make or break you being accepted over another candidate. For example, someone could have scored as low as a 74 on the TEAS, but if they have A’s in both of their A&Ps...they would end up with 18.4 points. You did very well on your TEAS, and if you secure an A in A&P 1 (which I’m sure you easily can), you’re guaranteed a spot. When did you take your TEAS, btw? Just wanted to mention that the TEAS scores are only valid for a year from the date taken; just something to keep in mind if you’re applying for Spring 2022!

Hi! I retook my TEAS today and scored a 92. The tiebreakers are super important! Last term, 60 people were accepted and 545 applied. Collin is super competitive, to say the least. It’s definitely daunting starting with a crisis going on, but, anyone working in the health care capacity will always be more susceptible to infectious diseases, just by the nature of the job! I don’t think it will be until Fall 2021 that off-site clinicals actually begin though; since we do not have Summer classes at Collin anymore. If I’m remembering correctly, they do not start until the second semester.

Thank you! I test on this upcoming Thursday. :)

Well, hopefully, you can boost your scores up! Good luck to you, it was a really competitive cycle last term. I appreciate the offer, but I’m okay. I retest in a few days, so I’ve got my own review processes under control.
