my class is @8am and ms G is my teacher

Hi AKing21...I'm taking HPRS 1204

@jetergirl...i got your email and with my current hesi score i have a total of 27pts. I have another test scheduled for august so if i get 12pts on it then i will max out at 32pts!

LOL jetergirl...i still did not receive it yet....my email is [email protected] I'll check again tomorrow night. My HPRS class at el centro started today so i went to the office to see if they had a print out of the updated info and of course they didn't.

hey jetergirl, can you send it again, i just checked my email and it's not there....i checked the spam also. thanks

hey jetergirl....i emailed you last night, can you send me a copy of the new point system? with the old one i had a total of 24...40 seems so far away now.

I'm also applying for the Spring semester....I can't wait until October 31 when we get our acceptance letters!!!

hey guys....did anybody find out what the lowest points accepted was?

@boomertx...I know of another school that is changing their point system also. I do believe that they all will make that change. I also agree that they should give more of an advance notice for the next applying group. I went to the info session at ECC and I was surprised to hear the new changes. But I do understand why they are pushing for BSN nurses. I have a friend who graduated from ECC last December. She just got hired as an ADN nurse but they gave her a timeline for her to get her BSN in order for her to keep her job. Good luck to us all!!!

Congratulations Faith2012 I'm glad u got in. I'll be right behind you...I can't wait!!!!

Same here...I'm working on Gov II and Hist II and they are the last thing that I want to be focusing on. I keep checking my email and checking this forum to see if anybody has received anything yet.

Hopefully by this time tomorrow night we will be notified!!

Actually it will not be TVCC's fault. Applicants have to go by whatever criteria their application period requires. Mine required the honors and the max of 13 points but yours will require the higher point level. If you think about it you have an advantage since they gave a preview of the changes. As far as the honors class goes, if it was one that they required ANYWAY then it wont matter b/c you will still get your point for it. For instance, my honors was a humanities so under the new guideline I wouldn't get the honors point but I will still get the humanities point, so really no money wasted right? Since you know that they will give points for the other courses then you should try to take as many as possible this maymester and summer just to get a few extra points out of the way. You will need them anyway for your BSN so why not do it now and get the points for it. You will also be getting ahead of those unlucky ones who will probably not read the preview changes until after may and summer sessions have already started. They won't be as fortunate as you to have used that time to get ahead. If TVCC do like they did for my application period then the classes you take in the Fall and Winter will count as well. Don't stress out just get as much done as possible. I hope this helps. Good Luck!!!

OK so no email today!!!

@ mmaxfield07...I can't wait either... I hope we get our emails tomorrow!!!!!

This has been the longest spring break ever!!! I am so ready to get my email. At least I won't have to wait on the mailman. I was told that we will be notified "the week of the 19th" so that could mean any one of those days. I'm gonna leave my email page open all day starting on Monday. I'm so restless!!!!!

I also viewed your post and I agree with mmaxfield07. I applied for Fall 2012 also. Did you go online and see a preview of the changes they are making for future app periods? Just a heads up! Good Luck!

The secretary at the Kaufman campus said that they will notify us by email the week of the 19th.

WOW 2 weeks from today!! So that's right after spring break. I can't wait to find out. I hope they don't make us wait any later...I am so ready to know!!!

@ cword31...I understand how you feel. When I first started this process I had made up my mind to drive an hour each way if I had to. But hopefully I will only have about a 30 min drive. Do you know anybody else who has applied? Maybe yall can carpool.

@ cword31, I sure hope 11pts will be enough. If they do like they did last year then we should hopefully here something around late March early April !

Wow that's great Faith!! Hopefully we will see each other there...I wonder how many applicants they had this year?

the application deadline has passed so now the waiting game begins. all 2012 applicants please chime in with your status and which location you chose (athens or kaufman). we have a long wait ahead of us so lets keep in touch for moral support!! i'll start it off.... 11 points no current classes my location of choice is kaufman

Hi there...I totally understand why you want to wait until your kids are in school full time. But I think 3-4yrs of just waiting and reading your old books would be a huge waste of your precious time. Why not take one class a semester, preferable online so you can still be at home with the kids. You can get your work done while the kids are napping, and since they are little you can put them to bed by 8pm and you can do your work. Think of it as night school...lol. If I were you I would start with the minor classes like psych or art. Find out how many of your previous classes will carry over to your new program and start from there. This way with only taking one class at a time you can really focus on making those A's and having a really good GPA. In 3yrs you should be ready for your sciences since most schools don't want them to be over 5yrs old. Do what you can now so it won't take as long when you are really ready start. Think about it, if you wait to start in 3yrs you will be looking at ALL your pre reqs which might take a year to complete. Then you have the application process which might take you another year to get in. So your 3-4yrs of waiting will probably end up being a total of 6yrs. I know this semester has already started but maybe you can get in a class for next semester. I hope this helps.

If they count repeat courses then I would retake them to get a higher grade. Check with an advisor to make sure first. Then ask them to help you find the best and fastest way to bring it up. You can also check out other schools. Maybe you can find one that requires a 2.5 gpa. Look around to see if you already meet some of the other schools guidelines in your area.
