Tarrant County College - Admissions for Fall 2010

Published

I wanted to know how everybody did on their TEAS test for the nursing program at TCC in order to be accepted on the Fall Semester 2010. I already took my test. I also wanted to keep together and find out who has been accepted as the time goes by. I know they start sending the acceptance letter late April. I'm already nervous.

Hello, everyone. I also applied for the fall semester at TCC and got placed as an alternate. They said I could get a call as late as the day classes start! Is there anyone else who is an alternate? I called to speak with someone about the chances of me getting in at TCC and they weren't very helpful and would not tell me what number I am on the list. I thought it would be nice to keep in touch with other alternates and see who all gets in...I heard last semester they used all of the alternates so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!! Congrats to all of you who got accepted!!

I just finished up my second semester in TCC's program and I was an alternate on the list and was call with a spot about 2 weeks later. I know that for the past 2 years they have called all alternates with spots. Many people apply to different places so keep your head and spirits up.

Congrats to everyone who made it in. The program is a LOT of work but well worth it. Just keep up with your reading and do lots of NCLEX questions and practice up on your math.

Thank you for your response, Txmommyof3! That makes me feel better! The waiting game is no fun, but I have a good feeling about it. Hopefully I'll hear something soon!

Congrats to those accepted for fall '10! I'll be applying for fall "11. Just need micro. Did anyone see the post on the TX nursing programs thread about the change in TCC pre-reqs? I have been trying to find out all day which nutrition class bonus points are now awarded for with no response from TCC or my friends who might know, so if anyone here knows, please let ME know! TIA! Also, if you've done a mini session, how did that work out? HECO 1322 starts FRIDAY for 2 weeks, if that is the right class.

Thanks again and good luck!

3wishes- I was up on campus turning in some paperwork the other day and was looking over the new list. The bonus classes are medical terminology, pharmacology, nutrition(HECO 1322), and being a certified nurse aide. Good luck, and good luck to Loren also, hope you get a spot!

Thanks Allikat. Now I have to decide TODAY if I am up to cramming a whole semester into 2 weeks starting Friday. Anybody done that? Did you have to write papers for HECO 1322? Did you have prof. B at SE campus? Thanks for any info. Have a great 1st semester of nursing school!

3 wishes- what'd you decide on the nutrition class, I was planning on taking that one if I didn't get in the program this semester, it was the only prerequisite I needed for TWUs program.

I decided I'll just take HECO 1322 with micro in the fall. I'll go ahead and take Lifespan on June 1st like I had planned before I found out about the pre-reqs change. I think I will need it if I do UTA's RNtoBSN program in the future. I can't apply until the micro is done anyway. Oh well.

For those interested in the HECO class at TCC its pretty easy. I just did it online with Lisa Blackman. If you have done the other sciences this class should be a piece of cake. Its very baqsic material that is either common sense or skimming the surface of the sciences you may have already taken. I would do it in a mimimester for sure.

Congrats to those who made it into the TCC program. I am currently applying to the UTA program for January 2011.

I heard if you took English 1302 you don't have to take life span, true?
