TMCC Fall 2011

Published

Does anyone have any idea when they will or if they have begun sending out the acceptance letters for the Fall? Its crazy to me that they wait so long to tell you. Makes it hard to plan! :rolleyes:

Anybody knows what method do they use to calculate the GPA? Do they consider all previous courses, or only the courses that will apply toward the nursing degree? I am trying to see if they include my CHEM 121, MATH 96 and 120? What about ENG 101 that I took in the first semester of summer session 2011? Please, if you know, let me know... Thank you very much!

Definitely....I only applied to get my AA this last semester even though I have had the units for 15 years so that I could apply for Fast-Track and now that it did me no good for fast track....it is actually causing a problem for my financial aid because they will only help with ONE degree! HAHA:uhoh3::uhoh3::uhoh3:

Run a what if report on the MYTMCC site for the nursing degree, that will show you what courses are being used towards the degree. As far as I am aware those are the only courses they are using. As it plugs in all courses you have taken that will count towards your degree and those left to be taken.

Math 120 yes....Eng 101 yes but I would have thought that you had to have had eng done to apply in May??

I thought fast track was for those who held bachelors degrees already...not positive though...

thats what i thought too, all pre-reqs done by time of application. which are math, eng, sciences, psy...

Only MATH 120 or 126, BIOL 223, 224, and 251 must be taken prior to application for admission to the nursing program. The rest of general education courses can be taken while in the nursing program. I found this information at http://www.tmcc.edu/catalog/1112/pdf/worksheets/nursing_deg_aas.pdf

No AA's counted for fast track too.....doesnt matter anymore though! And yes you are right about the english....You can actually take that in the program but I dont think they would have used that to calculate GPA if you took it in the summer but I could be wrong.

PS....I dont know if it'll work for you guys who know you are above the cutoff.....but I was just able to register so they must've pulled the holds on people who are accepted.

It is probably because you turned in your acceptance!
