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!!!!!

Hello,

Good Luck to all of you applying for Spring 2016. I am applying for the fall 2016 start and had a question.

Does anybody know if they will give you credit on additional classes even though the exact course isn't the same. For example, I took Music Appreciation instead of Art Appreciation and Intro to Anthropology instead of Intro to Sociology. I know that UTA would accept these classes for BSN but wanted to know if anyone has experienced this and received credit.

The course numbers and name have to match exactly. I took music appreciation as well, and also Chem 1405 but didn't receive credit for those.

Take as many fast track classes as you can!

Has anyone heard how you pick clinical sites in orientation? Just wondering if it goes off preference first, or it's just completely random on who gets what.

If I remember correctly a friend from the program said its a lottery system.

Do you know what hospitals participate? We do the majority at a Methodist System Hospital....and then go to Children's for peds, I believe.

Lottery system is correct

It might vary from semester to semester but spring 2015 first semester students went to the Dallas VA Medical Center or another hospital in mesquite. That same friend got to do clinicals at Baylor in Carrollton and Parkland for second semester.
