Hi everyone! I’m starting this thread so we can share our application criteria points with each other! I just turned in my application today. I have between 85 and 88 points. I have 3 B’s on my science prerequisites :((, 4.0 gpa for all the general Ed courses. I have fluency in Spanish, an associates degree, CNA, and volunteer experience. I scored an 88 on my TEAS! I hope they can look past my grades in my prerequisite courses and I get in!!! I hope we all get into this cohort! Good luck everyone

Very happy for you... Sure it was just a typo, but it's actually on wed the 29th, not Friday ?

Thanks for the headsup ... I would have gone to the orientation this Friday thinking its the 29th. -_-

I’ll say this again ALMOST everyone on my cohorts alternative list got in I wouldn’t worry so much also being you guys got accepted so late usually those with a lot of points got in somewhere else and will forfeit their seats do not stress and if you didn’t get denial or a seat letter your most likely on the second list of alternatives I have a feeling a lot of you will get in. We found out in March if we got in or if we were alternatives and the alternatives got emails April 5th for a spot and some even got in a few days before the school started stay positive guys not everyone knows this website is out there so you won’t know for sure but stay positive please alternative email is better than nothing trust me on that adn i was an alternative and I got in!

Do you remember when step-ups alternates got emails for a spot?

I got mine two weeks after the initial set of emails but it can vary there’s no certainty on when.

I think caligirl85 was a traditional or straight (whatever you want to call it lol) ADN alternate... Perhaps I'm wrong?

Do you know of anyone who got into swc and declined because they are going elsewhere?

I don’t know of anyone else who applied to all the schools and declined Southwestern......sorry I can’t be of more help

No worries! I was thinking you perhaps knew since I imagine some step-ups joined your cohort on the second year. I guess I will wait to see if amy step-up alternates post on here if they are offered a spot. Thank you both @W12 and @Caligirl85

Does anyone know if they take school ID pics at orientation?

Any alternates get in yet?
