  1. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    I don't think this person is an LPN, scored in the mid 80's in the TEAS and has excellent grades. My friend did not go into details as to how the classmate was notified. She just sent me an email...

  2. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    I've been away from this thread for a few days. I did not realize they had sent rejection letters or that people were already being notified of their acceptance! I have not heard anything, so I don't...

    HOT OFF THE PRESS!! My friend just called me and told me she spoke to Prof. * just now and he told her that letters will be going out this Wednesday. Apparently the department will get together this...

    Funny how when I even suggested the idea they might use grades to decide admissions, people were trying to talk be down Them taking this long does not necessarily mean they looked at grades, but it...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    I called the Admissions office just now (around noon) and spoke to an unfamiliar gentleman who said letters went out today. I'm taking it with a huge grain of salt because I have never heard this...

  6. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    My friend told me on Saturday that she called Prof. *'s direct line and that his voicemail said something about students being notified the second week in May. So this week should be it. I am sure...

  7. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Again, my opinion on this matter does not seem to be very popular, but I do think that they might be waiting for final grades or something like that. Picture this hypothetical scenario: the cut off...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Imagine my surprise when I received a big yellow envelope from WCC last week. Needless, to say, my heart started racing!!! Not until I looked closely at the label did I realize the envelope came from...

    Thank you for clearing this all up. I went to a seminar in the Fall of 2008 and I remember hearing something else. I'm very glad that they are accepting 40 and not 30 students per program

  10. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Not everyone applied for the night program. Day time program applicants have until the end of summer to complete pre-reqs. For me it makes sense they would verify that everyone currently taking...

  11. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    I don't think they would look at transcripts to determine admissions. The transcripts would be to see what pre reqs have been completed or need to be completed/ passed so that when they generate the...

  12. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    If I am not mistaken, each program has pre-reqs that must be completed by the end of summer term. I would think that they'd want to know that everyone accepted in the program has completed the...

  13. Westchester Community College FALL 2010 RN PROGRAM

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Could be, considering that May 1st is a Saturday and the last date to take the TEAS is tomorrow. They would probably need a couple of weeks to select the students, pull their transcripts, generate the...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Hopefully you are correct and there are 120 spots. I think the only person who can clear this out is definitely Prof. ******* because **** ***** is no longer there and the lady at the reception might...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    You posted this before I finished my other post! Her numbers match the numbers **** ***** offered during the info session. Maybe they've expanded the program and will be accepting more candidates? Who...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    The gentleman who was proctoring my exam said that they were not allowed to discuss anything about the nursing program because they did not have all the facts and for us to direct all inquiries to the...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Thx :) It has special meaning to me...LOL!! Since you are looking for 2011 entry, you'll have plenty of time to prepare. That's exactly what I was talking about on my previous post. The proctor is...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    I know of a few people who have gone on to complete a RN to BSN program after completing the ADN at WCC. I don't think that would be a problem. As for applying to WCC, they offer monthly information...

    :lol2: I do sound like I'm a little nutty, don't I? I guess I want my two friends applying to the program to get in as well :) I am being cautiously optimistic, but I do have a back up plan. The only...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Don't plan on taking Micro until the Spring or next summer. My percentile rank on the ATI site still lists me at the 99%, which means that the report being generated is the same that was given to me...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    I want to add another thing. WCC is a state school. That means that it has to accommodate people of all different racial, cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. I know they won't say it out loud, but...

    platanazo3 replied to nickynoodles's topic in New York Nursing

    Ok, check this out. My friend took the TEAS this morning and scored an 85. Well, she told me her percentile rank was 91, which means, 9% of test takers so far had scored the same or higher than her...
