Pm me your email address, and I will send over a copy of the new student packet they sent out. I can (almost) guarantee that as alternate #2, you will get in.

I'm in! I think that sounds like a great idea!

I would search or Langston posts on this site. Or-start a new thread. You just about have me a heart attack thinking I was left out of the acceptance pile to OCCC (Oklahoma City Community College). This is a thread for OCCC Fall 2013 hopefuls. Good luck finding the info that you are looking for! And congrats on your acceptance!

I tried. Spent much of my very short lunch break trying to get some info. No dice.

I am an OCCC student who has recently applied for the nursing program starting this fall. I highly recommend taking the summer course, as having 15 points will most likely not get you into the program. 17 gives you a much better chance. I am not 100% sure, however I am almost certain that you cannot start with day classes (Fall) for one semester, and then switch to evening classes. This is something I would check with the nursing school advisor on. I don't know if you have very many options for the microbiology professor, however I am currently in microbiology, and the professor whose last name rhymes with Reading, is fantastic. I would highly recommend her. Hope any of that helps!

MRS. PEREZ. I just heard that on the 1+1, you also need to get at least a 70% on your TEAS test. (Not just the 62% needed to get points into the OCCC nursing program) So, if you are thinking about this route, make sure your TEAS score is at least a 70%. Also- and I may be wrong- I'm pretty sure you have to apply to OCCC nursing program and be OFFRED the 1+1. It isn't something you can decide to start all on your own. Hoe this new info helps! Good luck in everything! Chase your dream!

Anyone else out there just dying with anticipation? -Realizing that it hasn't even been a full week since the deadline!! I've never been good at waiting- but this suspense is killing me!!!

Congratulations ladies, on your acceptance! I too, have applied for a Community College RN program for Fall 2013-I won't find out if I'm in for a few more weeks, but I understand the hard work needed to get here! Best of luck to you on your future endeavor! Congrats, again!!

MRS.PEREZ- if you want extra info on the nursing program, I would talk to the nursing program advisor (can't really post names on here, but her initials are C.E.-and u can find her in the health services pavilion) she is a great resource as to what you need to do (classes to take, and extra things you can do to gain points-if you do decide to go into OCCC's program) Good luck! And just keep working at it! It may take a while, but the end result is SO worth it!

I don't know about any other schools, but OCCC's wait list is semester specific. For instance-if you apply for fall semester, and don't get in you are then put on a wait list (alternate list). Last year I've heard around 20 people that were not originally admitted (who were put on the alternate list) got in, because a lot of times people apply to several schools, and although they were accepted at OCCC, they maybe choose another. Those not admitted (either originally, or off of the alternate list) need to apply again for a different semester. It is not a wait list in the sense that those not selected this semester will be put on a list to be called next semester...etc. if that makes sense. It is a very (you either got in this semester -as an original or alternate member-or you need to reapply) sort of thing. Either way-the LPN degree takes a year, and ten the RN program takes a year. 2 years either way. You just have to find which path is right for you.
