  1. CCAC Spring 2010

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    In class today this was the subject of discussion. One girl claims that several of her Boyce friends got their letters While I am slightly skeptical, she is standing fast they are indeed out. I am...

    Not in the hall, but in front of the deans office, behind the secretary. The denials have a basic cover sheet with check boxes for generic reasons. That is how I knew about the denials, I saw a...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I am really sorry... I should have specified that my information came from the NORTH campus where the letters are issued. I don't know how many have been up to the 3rd floor at north, but if you get a...

    The CCAC Calendar says the 11th, of course CALU is missing. I have heard the orientation gives just about a month before classes start. Assuming after final week they have orientation, there is not a...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    No letter on my end either, then I did not expect one since I found out they just went out. I am guessing they were sent from North (another mystery). Thankfully, it is maybe a day transit time for...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I was able to spend some time today with someone in the nursing program. The little I was able to ascertain is the master list has not been generated yet, they expect that list in the next few days....

    caution with your math... You can look on line at NRN 101 and see how many lecture seats there are at each campus (CALU was missing last I looked). There is about 90 TOTAL seats per campus (Allegheny...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    for nursing courses it does not matter, a nursing advisor has to approve your enrollment. You can sort of plan for the other courses. It is not like there is a ton of choices for lecture. Lab is a bit...

    My NET scores are not on CCAC central, nor were they on the transcript page from the registar's office. I took my NET at CCAC as well. Now a good friend of mine, she took NET at CCAC as well, but on...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    97! wow, that honestly makes me happy. The way the advisor's sold the NET was that only those right out of high school got into the 90's. Regardless, the NET was one test I just could not figure out,...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I agree about most of the advisors. I was floored that at North some of the advisors are department chairs that have to donate X amount of days/hours a week. The preferred advisors, you never get to...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I asked that question about switching. Provided there is a seat, it is yours for the taking. Same goes for locations, if there is a position you can go for it. I was told there tends to be a lot of...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I don't think so to be honest, 95% of my course work is transfer credit. I am retaking one course not because I did poorly, but they did not think it was a direct match (scary, it is Micro and I had a...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I agree with your thinking on the NET. The more I brought it up over the last few months the more I took away it had little impact. There are two I believe on the decision board that want the NET to...

    dondk replied to Bobsdaughter's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    The only other thing I was told by a department head that they have a 25-30% washout rate, with a good 10% being washed out in the first semester, this was for both spring 2009 and fall 2009. As this...

    I was overly anal over my application after I saw all the rejected applications. When I asked what was the #1 reason for rejection and the answer was incomplete application I knew that was the...

    My information comes directly from CCAC. I was at North over the summer and got to know most of the players in the decision process. I am now down at Allegheny, I started getting friendly with them...

    I have been trying to chase this info down for the last week, I too have applied for CCAC Spring 2010. The latest I got out of them (bear that it may not be 100% accurate) First week of November...
