San Joaquin Delta ADN Spring 2015

Amerikangirl,

I agree with clueless. Consider re-taking the TEAS after doing some more preaparation. I found the study guide to be extermely helpful, more so than any of the online practice tests, though I did a few practice tests in the back of the study guide. I was then able to see specific areas where I made the most mistakes so i could focus on re-studying those areas.

I actually took a free online practice test a few months before studying for the test and failed it miserably. I was stressed out and thought that there was no way I could improve enough to pass, much less score high enough to get in the program. But by plugging away each and every day I was able to reach the score I wanted. You can, too.

You might not feel it is fair to have a system that gives class spaces to first time applicants over repeat applicants, but since that IS the system, do whatever you can do within the system to succeed. In your case, maintaining that high GPA with children at home is impressive, but now improving that TEAS score is your next hurdle.

Unless... you are fortunate enough to get a spot this year, in which case I hope I do, also, and we move forward together during these next few years.

I was looking over the Fall 2014 student handbook (it is in docushare) to get a feel for what will be expected should I make it on the upcoming November list. I would love to be able to take the BLS - peofessionals class with people heading to Delta. I'm even considering signing up before the list comes out. Has anyone looked into this yet?

Clueless,

did ARC put out acceptance letters yet? Did you get in, or are you still on hold waiting to hear from Delta?

Clueless91 · Oct 22, 2014

I haven't received anything from arc yet. Past threads say they don't send out acceptance letters until right before thanksgiving. The waiting game is terrible .

You're able to check your status with ARC and Delta by logging in and checking your application status. ARC has updated whether or not the application is qualified for the lottery.

Clueless91 · Oct 23, 2014

Yay i just checked I'm qualified! Hopefully that means they will let us know soon!

Congrats!! That is so awesome!

I applied for Spring of 2015. My overall score is not that great (59). I was surprised that I even got invited to submit documentation. 59 is pretty low compared to the others. It looks like they are accepting high 50s for the cut off. I'm not holding my breath with my score. Good luck to you. I know how you feel about submitting applications (time consuming and expensive) :down:

Hi! can you shed some light on how to check Arc and Delta? Exactly what does it tell you?

Clueless91 · Oct 24, 2014

Arc you check by going to Eservices and clicking on the tab programs on the top. Then click on the ARC nursing application and it will tell you your updated status. Your actual acceptance email will be emailed out to you (they won't send them out until late November). Deltas I believe will be sent through your delta email on November 3rd

Knowledge is power.

Delta used to send an email to the person's Delta email address, but reading over things I am not sure if they still do. Anyone know? It may be that we log in the same way we checked our application status the first time.

Luv2Fly22 · Nov 1, 2014

November 5th is the day our application status will be available on the same site used for the initial application. 4 days!!! Good luck everyone!!
