Anyone applying for RCC's Fall 2015 Nursing program?

Thought I'd start a thread to communicate about applying, TEAS, etc.

Hey! So the article was talking about how many students are enrolled at one time :) they let in around 80 per semester but over all there's around 350 students in the program since you have 80 getting in 2x a year and it's a 2 year program :) how awesome would it be though if 400 got in!

OK wow makes more since now lol, I wasn't too sure I was like that is a lot of nursing students at one time haha. But the article was so amazing right?

Hey everyone! So I emailed them about getting an appointment or just confirmation that all my needed stuff were in and they replied saying everything look good and also that acceptances/denials will be out late June now vs early. Just wanted to let everyone know. Hoping it would've been soon since early June isn't too far away but looks like it'll still be a while

That's awesome! What are your points if you don't mind me asking? I emailed them probably last week &I set up an appointment for next week... Yeah I was thinking probably late June as well since it took them awhile to send the teas invites. At least the month of May is going by pretty fast!

If I did everything right I think I'm at 90. Yeah I kept feeling like it was going to be a long wait but its going by quickly!

That's awesome!! I'm sure things are good if they let you know :) but yeah June will be here before we know it!

Why must it take so long? I am literally sick with anxiety. I'm having horrible dreams. Last night I dreamed that I showed up for clinical in old jeans and a Budweiser tee shirt because I'd forgotten to change clothes after doing yard work and I was thrown out of the program and was sent to the psych ward for a 72 hour hold and no one was home to take care of my son who for some reason was 7 years old again and the state took him away.

On the plus side I'm losing weight because my anxiety induced acid reflux has destroyed my ability to eat anything but oatmeal and applesauce.

So, I got that going for me...

Oh no! That is so sad I am so sorry you are going through that! I wish I could help in some way, but I really think you can relax. If you have 95 points you are in. I don't think anyone who has had 95 points has never not gotten in! Have you read the past forums for RCC? It will help you maybe to see what points got in last fall and spring?

Ya it was amazing!

Hey, I know this isn't much advice, but you need to understand that this is the passage before the journey. You can't spend your days stressing and worrying about the unknown. You need to use this time for your family / and son. This is the time whee were we lay back and enjoy the fruit of our labor, we've made it far and acceptance letters are not in our control. We / you have it your all and you did great. Take care, nursing school isn't easy. (From what I've heard) don't make it any harder. If it's out of your control... There's no reason to stress

I understand your words and appreciate the kindness but anxiety isn't rational. I was just venting. If there is a way for things to go wrong my brain will find it and keep me awake all night playing out every possible detail.

I completely understand. My friends a psych major and struggles with anxiety. Stay strong and positive!

Does anybody know if RCC automatically received our TEAS transcripts of we've taken it at another location? -sitting here stressing over it
