You will get in! Staying in is another thing. LCCC I think is one of the best nursing programs in the state. You will get the best clinical skill set. BSN students from UW are inferior when it comes to LCCC clinical experienced SN's.

hey Jamien, With a 3.0 you have a pretty good chance. I'd reccomend taking as many prereq's as you can before you apply and study for the TEAS test. They used to have the NET test, which was much easier than what I've heard from the TEAS. So keep up on your science and math. Also, if anything try to take your physiology and microbiology BEFORE you start the program. These classes will take alot of your time and the nursing program will take everything else. The point system cutoff varies from semester to semester. When I was accepted the cutoff was at I think 75 points. But I've heard of it being much lower during other semesters. If I were you, I'd fill out an application now, (even if you're not applying) and count up your points and then go from there to see how many more with the classes you have left can you get. Hope this helps! LP

Hey Wystu! You have a very good chance!I probably should have read through your last message entirely. I just now noticed that you already posted your points. I would feel pretty confident about your acceptance. I can't guarantee anything, but it looks to me like you're in a very good position! This past semester the point cut off was 75, so anyone above that I'm pretty sure got in. We also had two people drop before the semester began and had a couple alternates take their place. So even if you get on the alt. list try not to fret. Do you have any prereq's still to do? If you do try to get any you can done over the summer. The nursing program takes alot of your time. The reading itself takes alot out of you. Feel free to write back with any other questions. good luck!

That is one bad thing about applying to LCCC. The nursing secretary Dawn. Well, she doesn't do her job, at all. When I applied she told me that I'd find out within the next couple of weeks and it took another month and a half before I got my acceptance letter. How many points did you get? I could probably be able to let you know if you're a shoe in or not. Good luck! You'll find out soon enough.

Any kind of cheat sheet for quick reference is great to have A gait belt. Two pair of support pantyhose! Trust me, these are lifesavers! A good watch with second hand. not just any lotion, but the super good stuff 'cause your hands are going to shrivel up. a six pack in the fridge after the super long days. A dependable fellow student/study partner. and personal pocket size hand sanitizer. (for your own protection from the disease carrying fellow nurse students)

Hey! llsig has no idea what they are talking about. There is NO waiting list for the nursing program at LCCC in Cheyenne. I just started this spring sem. And the point based system had a cut off of 75 points this semester. The point cut off varies each semester depending on the number of people who applied. Just last fall it was only 65 points. The program so far has been marvelous and you should get started now if you want to get in by this fall. I know alot of students in the program that still have a few general ed classes they are taking. So if your grades are high, then having one or two classes short may not be a problem. You really need to visit the website and see any changes they have made. I know that you need to take the TEAS test for this next coming semester. But if you have taken the NET test within the past three years and passed they will take that instead. Good luck!
