Congrats to the incoming nursing students from a current Collin College nursing student! I just finished the first semester. It was quite a ride! Good luck to you all. I may later post some of my words of advice that some fellow students and I came u...

Hello everyone! I was looking for a thread for Fall 2015 for Collin, and didn't see one, so if there already is one, please share the link. Otherwise, welcome to this thread! I am a pre-nursing student and I am about to take the PSB and put in my app...

It came from the nursing retention recruiter - CR (initials of the person) to my cougarmail acct. I would call the nursing office and request to speak with her.

So, I was able to get my fast pass working and I got my fingerprinting finished. I've paid for my drug screen, and I'm waiting a couple of weeks to purchase my skills pack. As far as the uniforms, I am only going to buy one set, and a lab coat. That ...

I would think so too, but one of my friends didn't get her email today either, and no one that I know that did get it is able to get it to work yet anyway. (including me)

Just got my email today about the fast pass! Yay!!!

I called them on Monday or so, and they said that they expect to email that stuff out in about a week. Am I the only one that is ridiculously excited about orientation?

I found the psych online honors class to be pretty easy. I didn't spend too much time on it and still made an A. I highly recommend it to at least get in one point. The teachers initials are M.R. However- you are facing a similar situation as a lot o...

I had one honors class finished and was taking another when I got accepted. I retook psych for an honors point. I also retook humanities for another honors point just in case (the one I'm currently in). I went a bit overkill perhaps but I'm in so the...

My school is also a community college. We have 50 spots and an average of 250 people applying per round. It's very competitive.

It's hard to comment on your particular school, but I know where I am, you practically have to have a 4.0 to get into the nursing schools. They require a 2.5 however, the competition is fierce and most applicants that are accepted have a 4.0 or just ...

I haven't received any emails yet. I get excited every time I see that I have an email in my cougarmail acct. I'm so ridiculous. Lol! I'll post as soon as I hear anything about anything.

I can tell we have a lot on common, except that I have two kids, instead of 5. I can't wait to meet you! (I was also crying outside, and mine was partially caught on video). My heart is also breaking for those not accepted. It just crossed my mind t...

Mom25gr8kids- I was ugly crying when I found out. I cried so hard when I called to tell my parents that they couldn't tell if it was good news or not.

I'm in as well! So surreal and exciting! Congrats to everyone!

So did you end up with 30/34 points? Just curious!

One of my good friends got her letter today as well, but none here yet either. I may puke.

Not lately. Last I spoke with them, all they would say is by the end of March. The wait is killing me too.

I am so over this wait! I just want to know how to feel!!

Congrats C.WIN!!!! That is awesome! I can only imagine how good that must feel. I'm waiting still on Collin. I hope to feel as good as you are right now! Lol!

Chaotic_Fury - That stinks since I am on FA! I wonder how I am going to make that work. Since you have friends in the program - what can you tell u about it? I have been wanting to talk to people in the program but I can't find any on here that will ...

The orientation for Fall 2013 was May 1st. I'm not sure about Fall 2014 as I couldn't find that information. I haven't heard about when ours would be. Sorry!

Oh man! Well Iasked them how many people had applied for Fall 2015as well but they didn't come close to giving me an actual number. They simply said "Oh, a few hundred."

I spoke with the Nursing School office and they informed me that the letters to notify of application status will be mailed out by the end on March. I was hoping to have a more concrete date than that, but that is what I was told!

I haven't applied anywhere else yet, but I may be applying to NCTC for the Fall if I don't get into Collin. They accept apps for Fall May-June, so I will know before I apply. I considered El Centro but it's pretty far away from me.
