Tacoma Community College (TCC) Winter 2025

Published

I'm starting this thread for those of us who've applied to the Winter 2025 TCC ADN program and are awaiting a decision. After reading that applicants with 9 of the 14 possible points didn't get into the Fall 2024 cohort (22 students), I'm feeling pretty defeated. I've spent the last two years building what I thought was a competitive application (e.g., excellent grades, high TEAS score, CNA experience) only for other factors beyond my control to be given more weight. I understand the intent, but it's frustrating that there are so few options in the south sound area. Anyone else feeling this way?

I got in but decided to decline the offer as I'm heading to PLU instead.  Hopefully one of you here will get placement at TCC.

If you don't mind me asking, how many points did you have? 

And congratulations for getting into both programs!!

Congratulations! I'm considering applying to PLU since I didn't get into TCC (9 points), did you apply to the tradition or accelerated program if you don't mind me asking ?

Accelerated.   I thought about the 2 year BSN at PLU Tacoma but I do better with online classes and in-person labs.   Yes the drive won't be pretty but maybe I can ride share or take public transportation.

I believe it was 9 points

Congrats! It's great to have choices, and you'll have your BSN in half the time. Good luck!

Any word yet? When are we supposed to find out 

Has anyone here applied to the Spring 2025 application? if so, have they announced anything?

Specializes in Pre nursing.

Haven't heard a word! 

If it was anything like Winter, it took about 2 months to send out their acceptances. We'll probably have a status update by the end of this week or next. 

just received an email that it will take 2-3 weeks.
