[Mtrudeau]

Hi there!

Welcome to the Forum for Prospective Nursing students starting in Spring of 2020.

The application period (subject to change and directly from RCC website) opens from the First Business day in September- the First Business day in October to apply for Spring.

Also, Please let me know if creating a Facebook group would be more streamlined.

Feel free to share questions, comments, concerns!

That's about how many I counted in the exam room. IDK how many declined the invitation. They take the highest science GPA. Also, Steve sent an email last week saying those with a 3.5 GPA or higher are usually invited.

Yeah I got that email also. Alright, I think I will wait and hope they send it tomorrow. I’m just worried if it will be difficult to find a place to take the exam if not invited if they take a while. I’ll update on here if I get an email or not.

(-; hope the info helped. As far as the TEAS goes, Loma Linda has a lot of openings and it's cheaper. Maybe you can try them in the off chance you don't get invited.

@Soledad Padilla @Erika Salazar So RCC is really unorganized and usually when they say in about a week they really mean like 2-3 weeks or a month LOL.. Don't rely on what they say too much; trust me, I've gotten my hopes up one too many times... With that being said, I got my invitation the first week of September, so I'm sure you will get it soon. Also, depending on what program you applied to you probably won't hear back until November or December. I (traditional) found out the second week of December, but CEP found out the second week of November.

Hey! I have a question, so I’m taking my TEAS on Sept 11 so does that mean I’m eligible to submit the scores? I’m taking it that morning, I’m just worried that they won’t take it.

Yes *** told me it was fine. If you are talking online just have transcripts sent directly to the school if not just sent it right away to them

Thank you! I just sent them through ATI, do you know if RCC will let us know that they received our scores? or do we have to email them to ask?

I’m sorry I’m not too sure about them telling everyone if they received each person’s score. You can try to email them but I’m  not sure how soon you would get a response regarding that.

Hey there! The dean actually shared that there has been an influx of applications for this period due to a lot of other schools in the area closing their doors. There could be a delay in response due to the influx of applications. I personally didn't hear back for the CEP program until Mid december and the ADN program was a bit later than that. Hang tight! The news will come!
