I think you can pass for one. I did all three just in case.

Alrighty! I took one out and my total points did not change. But I will just enter both to be safe. Thank you!

How many points is everyone applying with??

Based on my application:

Academic Degree = 2.5; Criterion 1B, 1C, 1D = 0; Science GPA = 40; Non-Science GPA = 10; Life Experience = 2; Proficiency in languages other than English = 2; TEAS = 30; Highly Recommended Coursework = 1; Total = 87.5 points

I wonder if this is going to be our actual points or they would still verify our applications and will give us our final points after.

Do we include all colleges on our app, even if pre reqs were not taken there? Under criterion 2A, the 2019 admission criteria states "Failure to submit transcripts from all colleges attended with all grades posted will result in disqualification." I don't want to get disqualified for any reason ?

I only included the colleges that fulfilled the courses that they asked for. As I started entering them, the courses changed from green to red and then it said page complete. You shouldn't have to list all the other courses you took that don't apply to the program.

Specializes in CPT-1.

I am applying with 68 this go around if it doesn't work out or any of the other schools dont work out. I will hopefully have 75.5 next time... good luck to all

They sort based on unverified points and invite candidates to submit supplemental docs. Then verify the points after thorough doc/application review and come up with the final ranking, acceptance, disqualifications and alternate listing.

FYI - You only get 1 point for that section no matter how many classes taken.

Yes I know. Thank you. I just wanted to know if I have to enter all the recommended courses since I was told don’t leave anything out to avoid disqualification.

Anyone applying with a "w" in their course history? I had a "w" in a class and wanted to find out how you entered the credits. Did you enter a zero (to reflect the units earned) or did you enter a three( for the number of units attempted)? I am confused on this because when I enter a three, it calculates the "w" into my GPA which shouldn't be the case for classes with a "w". I have never known them to impact one's GPA.

If it’s for the sciences I think you have to mark it as a repeat and then it shouldn’t have an effect on the GPA any longer

It is for a non-science class. Those don't give option to mark as repeat as far as I see.

Yeah I didn’t see it either For those. I would call or send an email I’m not sure how to go about it for the non sciences. Sorry, wish I could be more help

There should be an option to mark as a repeat. You would include the units but then select "Yes" for repeat-exclude from GPA. Unfortunately, I can't get into that part of the app anymore, I can only see my summary, but under the summary, it does note if the class is a repeat or not.
