Have you been accepted into the Spring 2017 TCC ADN program? If so, I'd like to hear from you. I just received my acceptance letter yesterday.:sneaky:

Awesome! I just wanted to touch bases with students coming into the program. How long have you been trying to get in? Where else did you apply?

This was my first time applying, and I only applied at TCC. I returned to college this year after quitting about 8 years ago. Back then I was pre-nursing at a school in Indiana. How about you?

I applied a year ago, but didn't get in. Back then there were approx. 140 applicants and 30 were picked. This time around there were only 39 eliglble applicants and 24 were chosen. I also applied one time at PLU. I feel fortunate that I got into TCC after the 2nd try, as I've heard people applying up to 5 times!

Ugh! I've not heard anything :( I'm super bummed. Congrats to you though!

I'm wondering if you'll still be notified? Maybe they haven't finished notifying recipients? Did you receive the notice that you qualified for the lottery? Have you applied anywhere else?

I'm one of those folks where this is my 4th time in lottery...I've applied to PLU and OC too this time ~ they start in the Fall IF I get in *sigh*. I emailed earlier this afternoon, but have not heard or seen anything yet. My score was 75.

Darn. They hardly had any applicants this time. Only 39 total, and 24 were picked. I know that many people had difficulty passing the TEAS since they upped the minimums.

I really hope you get in. Fingers crossed for you.

I got in too, has anyone been emailed the student handbook yet? Do yall know what we should buy for the program? I bought an anatomy coloring book and a nurse dosage pocket book to start practicing. I haven't taken anatomy in awhile and I am horrible with math!

Can't wait to meet yall in a month!

I'm not sure when the Student Handbook will be emailed, but it should come before next week's orientation. NO, I haven't bought any materials yet. I know there's only one book we'll be buying, everything else will be online. I wouldn't be worrying about math at this point.
