Published

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

Thank you for making a post! I have been looking for a southwestern fall 19' cohort post for awhile. I applied to grossmont but I doubt I got in. I had low 80s for points and they are harder get into than southwestern, so I heard. I have around 82 or 83 points, I think, for southwestern as well. CNA, Associates, 1 B in sciences(anatomy) and 1 B in English for G.E the rest A's. I got an 82.7 on the teas. ? less than 3 points away from full points at southwestern. ? I only applied to two colleges so I really hope I get in. But I have a gut feeling I will have to reapply? I keep getting registration emails that trick me into thinking it's a nursing email. I hope we all get in!!!!!!

Good Luck to you, we have about the same points! Hopefully we both get in! Should be anytime soon! Last years cutoff was around mid 70"s so keep your hopes up!

I was looking over last years cohort post and they said people got in with low 70s the year before them, now we are comparing them with getting in with mid 70s. Seems each year it goes up!? Also, they didnt hear back until like the 25th of April. So we might have another 2 weeks to wait or longer ?

Yes, it feels like each year it gets more and more competitive. Even for community colleges! I hope we all get in! I am so done with this waiting!

did you somebody get accept into nursing at SWC yet, I missed this year to apply. I guess I have to wait for next year to apply to get in. As I know SWC, Grossmont college you have to pass all the course with 78 % to pass the course, Palomar only need 70 % and they allow you to come back if you fail on the first time.

They put out the rejection letters the same day as acceptance? Or did you apply to lvn-RN? I looked at last cohort post and the straight to RN got acceptance letters the 24th.

@AspiringDNP I applied for the RN cohort. I went back to the email and mine was dated 04/24. I can’t remember if mine was sent out the same day or a few days later. But I’m pretty sure it was a few days later bc they do it by mass email.... Acceptance, alternatives then rejections letters.
