Southshore2014, BCC is strictly quantitively based in their decision for who they accept. The students with the highest GPA and with the most points will get in, basically. They do this to eliminate a bias and to allow the "best" candidate to get in. This is what they've told me, so this is what I go off of. You can always call to get a clearer answer. I hope that helps! So do you actually have 30 points or was that hypothetical?

Hey TC_2014 & southshore2014! Thanks for joining the thread :) TC_2014, I filled my application out online, but I called admissions RIGHT AWAY to have them verify that it was completed correctly. Traditional is my first choice and eHealth is my second. I also applied to Massasoit last week. If worse comes to worse, I'll apply to Brockton Hospital School of Nursing, but I have faith that I'll get into BCC or MCC. Not that BHSON isn't a good school, because I think it's fine, it's just the most expensive and it would be a longer commute for me. southshore2014, I do use ratemyprofessors.com ALL the time Unfortunately, the professor I've been waiting a year & 1/2 to take it with isn't teaching Micro this semester, which is a bummer! As long as you get above a 50 on the TEAS, maintain a 3.0+, and complete the pre-admissions requirements with a B- or higher, you can to apply to BCC. The more A's in the pre-req's and the better! The points system is as followed: 6 or 5 points for an A+ or A —I'm almost sure they use 6, but not 100% which they use, because now an A+ & an A= the same weight! 4 pts= A- 3 pts= B+ 2 pts= B 1 pt= B- The classes are: High school Chemistry with a lab or CHM 090 HS Algebra or higher Anatomy and Physiology I English Composition I or II General Psychology Total possible points= 30 I hope this helps! :)

Hey aspiring nurses, I haven't seen a forum for the BCC applicants for fall 2015 yet, so here we go!! Who's applying to BCC? It would be nice (& is my hope) to become a support team to cheer each other on! I'd like to hear where you are in your process and if you're also applying to other schools. As for me, my application is in, I just need to do Micro. Any suggestions for Micro professors? I'm very excited and I'm sure you are, as well. Can't wait to hear from you all! --All support is welcome! Any BCC nursing affiliates, feel free to chime in, as well-- :)
