I applied to MiraCosta and Palomar's ADN programs. I have around 88pts for MiraCosta and 84 for Palomar. I was told we would find out end of March/beginning of April for Palomar and at the latest mid-April for MiraCosta There are already a few thread...

I did see that as well, I like how long their program has been around! Why is it your top choice?

I wanted to go to Palomar's meeting but I was out of town. I think they are having another one April 3rd. Did you go? I really want to know more about their program :)

I went to MiraCosta's nursing meeting earlier this week and found out that they actually award 1 point per each semester of foreign language. I had been told at some point during my pre-reqs that you needed to take up to 3rd semester to even get poin...

I hope you get in! Every cohort is different and anything in the 80s is really good. I think you also have a good shot at getting into Palomar. Its crazy how impacted the program has become, but you never know with each cohort. We have the same poi...

Congrats on getting into sdsu and swc! I feel ya on how expensive the bsn programs can be, that's why I'm going the adn route and then will bridge for my bsn after. What do you like about Palomar? I also applied to Palomar and MiraCosta but I don't ...

80 pts is really good, did you apply to both programs or any others?

I also created another thread for Palomar/MiraCosta applicants for Fall 2017. If you're like me, you've been stalking all of the old threads! Haha https://allnurses.com/online-nursing-schools/miracosta-palomar-fall-1091860.html

Hi Jmeee, If you started one of the programs this semester would you mind sharing your experience? I applied to both Palomar and MiraCosta for fall 2017. I have 86 points for MiraCosta and 83/84 for Palomar. I'm leaning towards MiraCosta if I get acc...

I just repeated info that was on other threads so I don't have any detailed information for you unfortunately. Nor can I confirm if one person's opinion of one program being more relaxed then the other to be true. MiraCostas class size is only 20 and...

I would like to hear more info on the differences as well. All that I have found from some other threads on here is that MiraCosta possibly pushes Ivs sooner, and is maybe more "relaxed" then Palomar, where Palomar is more strict. But in any nursing ...

You're points/experience are competitive:). When I turned in my app she said mid-April at the latest. Did you have the same points last time you applied? Or did you increase your points this time around?

I scored an 88% overall on my first try. I had 93.1 in reading, 89 in science, 70.8 in English, and 90s in math. I think I could have done better in English but I may have over studied for that section and psyched myself out a bit. I've always done w...

I created a new thread for those that applied to MiraCosta and/or Palomar for fall 2017. Also, If anyone is in either program now I would love to hear your thoughts/experience! I've calculated 85-86pts https://allnurses.com/online-nursing-schools/mir...

I also made a thread for those that applied to MiraCosta and/or Palomar who want to talk and compare points etc. https://allnurses.com/online-nursing-schools/miracosta-palomar-fall-1091860.html

No problem! Would love to hear how you end up doing next time :)

I'm applying to Palomar and MiraCosta. Was going to apply to grossmont but im waiting on a 3rd hep b shot and won't make the deadline. I'm an Emt, worked at a hospital, 88 teas, 3.6 science 4.0 gen eds. I've calculated 86 points! Almost all of the cc...

Ugh that sucks! I'm sure if you explain your situation you'll find a doctor that will do the X-ray for you..... 83 points is really competitive, you are going to get in somewhere! There were a couple spring 2017 threads on here that I followed, and ...

MiraCosta is probably going to be my first choice if I get in! If I was able to meet the deadline for grossmont it would have been in my top as well! What about you?

I didn't apply to grossmont due to missing one immunization I'm waiting on. But, someone I work with just started the program and scored 76 on the TEAS with As and Bs, work experience, health cert, etc. I'm not sure on their exact points but I know g...

Thats awesome! We are in the same point range. I took all of my pre reqs through MiraCosta and I really like the campus and the professors

In response to a post above, APU does have a campus in San Diego with an entry level masters nursing program among several others. It's in mission valley. I'm applying to ADN programs in San Diego for fall 2017 admission. I believe almost all of the ...

There is a $15 app I bought on my phone called "pocket prep" I used that and the mometrix manual. However, I found the app to be tremendously helpful and it has 1400 questions and gives explanations for every question! You can also choose what sectio...

I just took it on Feb 8th and scored 88% (90s in math and reading, 89 science, 70.8 English) I knew the English was going to be tricky, and I've always done really well with English and was in AP during high school. I found that section tedious when ...

I'm also applying to MiraCosta and Palomar. I just took my TEAS and scored 88%. I'll have 85/86 points when I apply. Was it Palomar that told you mid 70s? I know last cycle for MiraCosta the points were very high and the minimum you needed to get in ...
