Do you guys know anyone who attend RCC nursing? What do they say about it? I don't know any one there and i want to know how much everyone loves RCC!

GOOD LUCK WITH THE TEAS!!! Do the practice test.

Hi! I know a few people who have gone through their program... Some say it’s good, others say it’s dependent on the instructor

I applied for CEP and ADN for Spring 2020. If you apply to one are you automatically in contention for the other if you don't get into the other? I have CEP as my main go to as I already have a BA but I wouldn't mind ADN if that's the case.

I scored an 86 on TEAs and I have 76 points total if I calculated this correctly. I read in the Fall 2019 thread that some people actually got denied acceptance despite begin at or slightly above the cut off. I've only applied for one ADN/BSN program and this one is it!

I think they had more applicants in the fall...

I don't know what I'm feeling!!! Lol! I was hoping to do better on the TEAS than what I actually got, so that bummed me out a bit. But I recalculated my points and found out I was calculating them wrong, so I'm feeling a bit better ?. I'm hoping we hear by mid-October also! I applied to MSJC's program as well and they said to be on the lookout for an email by October 10. From previous threads, I've read that RCC is a bit late with sending out their acceptance/rejection letters. I hope that's not the case this year! What about you, did you apply to any other schools?

Yes! This is my second time applying to RCC and MSJC... I had been denied because I had classes in progress... This time I decided to apply to different schools: Palomar, miracosta, COD, Chaffey, RCC, and MSJC

Can anyone comment on my strategy? I'm stuck between PA and BSN programs. PA program applications don't open until April 2020 and if I get into RCC Spring 2020 CEP/ADN I was thinking about riding the wave until I get a rejection or acceptance letter from a PA program.

Is this a stupid thing to do?
