@jennytmuw- I'm with you on the winter clothing. I didn't have anything interview-esque, so I really had no choice. Oh well! I received a confirmation e-mail about the admission question a day or two after I submitted. I mentioned I already did the C...

@kkcriner- In the past, I think anywhere from 110-150 people have applied. I'm not sure about this year, but I'm assuming it's in that area. Ladies, I'd love to hear about what you're planning on wearing to the interview. I decided that it's best to ...

@Flyonn- I'm with you, Flyonn. I scheduled my interview for the 28th at 1 PM. I don't think I could stand to wait until Wednesday. I submitted my essay on the 15th, which felt as nerve-wracking as submitting my application. I wish you all the best of...

@aqua2303- I am so sorry to hear that. I hope that you have better luck in the future. Please don't give up!

@aqua2302- I got mine around 3 PM also. If you haven't gotten one yet, don't stress! I'm sure you'll hear back soon! :)

Hey guys! I got an interview as well! :)

@aqua2303- Based off of what I've read from previous threads, I have a hunch it will be this Friday!

I am not a nurse yet, but I do work as a patient care technician on a busy medical/surgical/orthopedics floor. I definitely understand your feelings, as I have felt them, and I think the best way to combat your anxiety is to get to the bottom of WHY ...

@lilochik- I was curious about this too, considering the application calculated a pre-requisite GPA for us. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the committee looks for a 3.0 or above in your first baccalaureate, but is most interested in your ...

Congratulations! You said you guys applied for the El Paso cohort? Let us know how the interviews go!

Flyonn- I took it to mean both. I am an American who was born and raised in the Middle East, so I felt like that was worth mentioning even though it was not work/volunteer related. If you did some sort of study abroad or have had significant travel e...

We should be hearing back about interviews in about one to two weeks! Scary! Good luck! :)

You may want to check with an advisor as to whether or not you actually need to re-take it. Here is a direct quote via e-mail from Kayla when I asked about the TEAS, "We will accept proficient level (58.7%) or above on the TEAS V". Unanswered ques...

Hi guys! So, I submitted my application about a week ago! Kayla said that your resume, CPR certification, and CNA certification can all be e-mailed to her or the other advisor. Don't forget to scan front and back of your CPR certification. Two of my...

@tj226- I don't think the TEAS score will make or break you, but I would recommend shooting for above a 70%. Kayla, one of the academic advisors, told me that a 70% or above is considered "good". It seems like you have a lot of experience as an LVN. ...

@Aprilb410- Yay! Congratulations on submitting your application. I also got an 80% on my TEAS V and Kayla told me that it was competitive. She said that the average matriculate has an 80% on the TEAS V, so I think we're good! @jennytmuw- Awesome expe...

@brabuckl- I don't think there are any specifications on how it should be formatted or what needs to be on it, but I would assume that is your traditional resume. I would include education, health care/job experience, extracurricular activities, comm...

@ms311- The application deadline for the Austin cohort is October 1. I believe that application opened on August 1. Hope that helps!

@ms311- I will be taking Physiology at ACC at the Round Rock campus, I believe. The TEAS is challenging and requires a lot of study if you're rusty and/or weak on your math and sciences. I would HIGHLY recommend purchasing the practice exams on the A...

Hi everyone! I'm so glad someone start this thread! I will be applying for the Spring 2014 Austin cohort as well. I am going to be finishing up my last pre-requisite in the fall, which is physiology. I have been a CNA for about a year and a half on ...
