Spring 2016 El Centro College/ NLC ADN

Published

I know that it's VERY early right now to start gearing up for the Spring 2016 admission but I thought I'd start this post early seeing as I have already started taking my final classes, preparing to take the Hesi A2 test and submitting all my other documents for the program. If all goes well, I will be between 30 and 34 points. How many points do you think you'll be at when it's time to apply for the 2016 spring entry? What's the lowest score that they have accepted for previous entries? Are there any single mothers, such as I, who will be applying for the nursing program? Hope to hear more from others who are getting ready to join. Would love to get lots of feedback!!!!!

This waiting game is terrible! I can't believe it's going to be October before we even begin to find out :(

Due to my a&p score, I can't apply till next round. 98 in my math 100 on my English. Very disappointed but everything happens for a reason. I will be more prepared next round. Good luck to you Guys!

I do have a question, would I resubmit my information and pay the sentry fee again for the fall 2016 application period?

I took my HESI at a 3rd party company, I did have to pay more but it was pretty last minute so I am okay with that. Scored a 92% overall which is great but I don't think I'm going to get in this time around because even with that I only have 25 points. I am going to take the HPRS classes this fall and hopefully with that and another support course it'll be enough. Pretty disappointing though.

Hello, what is the 3rd party company you use to take your test and what was the proces.

Does anyone know what happens if you use all of your financial aid hours before you enter the nursing program? I have taken so many classes that I only have 28 hours left. So im not sure what happens once i use all of those.

That happened to me, and I went to the financial aid office. It will have to be fixed! The problem is from the program plan you picked.

Well, they always advice us to chose the "Associate in science" that way, financial aid won't think that you're already in the nursing program, and start counting for you from that moment.

Go to the financial aid office, and your problem might be half solved! 😊

Email the testing center at elcentro and tell them you need to take the HESI but can't get a date and they will let you know how to register for an alternate location
