Southwestern College ADN Fall 2020

Published

Hey guys. Making this for those who are applying to SWC’s (Chula Vista, CA) ADN program for Fall 2020. Application period starts soon (November 4)! Write your questions to help each other out throughout the application period. If you want, post the amount of points you have in the point system.

Here’s the amount of points I have

Associates Degree - 5 points

CNA Certification - 25 points

Science Prereq GPA - 30 points (4.0 GPA)

”Fixed Set” GPA - 8 points (3.9 GPA)

Life Experience - 3 points

Language - 3 points (Spanish, documented proficiency)

TEAS test - 15-22 points ... I still need to take the TEAS. I want to give myself enough time!

So that puts me at 89-96/100 points.

Years of hard work into one packet... and now we wait.

Good luck to you all. You guys got this.

And waiting is thee worst too ? I’m so impatient. Last year I think they found out mid May? Hopefully sooner this year ??

Does anyone know the cut off in order to get in?

I heard it was mid 70’s last cohort ?

I’m not sure of the exact hours. But I know they have a morning group and evening group!

I am freaking out! I found a small mistake on my application. Hoping that I can go at 8AM when they open to fix it ?

what’s the problem with your app?

I forgot to check off “No” after it asked if I applied for the program before. I’m sure the person reviewing the apps will be able to figure it out though since I have my transcript included haha.

@Alexis Ebalo, ahh got it. I think they should be able to figure it out. No worries!

Who else is eager to hear back already and it hasn’t even been a month since the application period closed?! ?

Ehh... I’m expecting to hear back mid May (tops)... I’ll probably start refreshing my emails mid April every 5 minutes lol.

Hey there ! I’ll be submitting my application early December . Any other LVN’s applying for the step-up program ? I just went to the info session last week & found out that there’s preference for LVNs with their blood withdrawal certificates ! I have about 80-82 points but I’m hoping that’s what really gets me in . Best of luck to you !!

Hi !have you heard back or have gotten an e-mail to take the dosage calculation test? Thx :)
