I viewed but I applied for fall 2012. You will have a lot more postings next year at this time. We find out Thursday if we are in for Fall 2012. So I imagine next year people will know more for fall 2013.

I also viewed your post and I agree with mmaxfield07. I applied for Fall 2012 also. Did you go online and see a preview of the changes they are making for future app periods? Just a heads up! Good Luck!

what it says 21 points and they do not except honors classes any more so all the people that were following the tvcc brochure and took honors classes to get points will no longer get them and how will anyone get 21 points for an associates in nursing >>>>?????? or is that just for a bachelors program ........so it looks like alot of people who were following the old brochure program will loose the money they spent on classes and books.... thats not good can somebody say law suit not unless tvcc is going to reimburse all of these students for the classes and book they have paid for and taken for following the old brochure including the honors classes .... wow thats crazy

Actually it will not be TVCC's fault. Applicants have to go by whatever criteria their application period requires. Mine required the honors and the max of 13 points but yours will require the higher point level. If you think about it you have an advantage since they gave a preview of the changes. As far as the honors class goes, if it was one that they required ANYWAY then it wont matter b/c you will still get your point for it. For instance, my honors was a humanities so under the new guideline I wouldn't get the honors point but I will still get the humanities point, so really no money wasted right? Since you know that they will give points for the other courses then you should try to take as many as possible this maymester and summer just to get a few extra points out of the way. You will need them anyway for your BSN so why not do it now and get the points for it. You will also be getting ahead of those unlucky ones who will probably not read the preview changes until after may and summer sessions have already started. They won't be as fortunate as you to have used that time to get ahead. If TVCC do like they did for my application period then the classes you take in the Fall and Winter will count as well. Don't stress out just get as much done as possible. I hope this helps. Good Luck!!!

well the problem is that the tvcc counselors gave out a list of honors classes for the students to pick from so that they could recieve an extra point but the problem is that some of those honors classes to pick from on that list are not part of their new 2013 class requirement guidlines and alot of students have already taken those honors classes not required some have gotten lucky and taken the humanities fine arts honors class like you were saying but some have taken other honors classes not required and are now out of the time and money they spent on that class. THE OTHER PROBLEM is that not every one is interested in getting a bachelors degree alot of people i talk to are interested in obtaining their associates degree in RN. so why penalize the people just wanting an associates by making them take all of those extra classes just for an associates degree not a BSN they should have an option. but i was reading and i noticed that tvcc teamed up with the universities to make the students be forced to take the additional classes towards their bsn so that way the school can get more money from students spending on more classes and books it seems a little crooked if you ask me. it looks like tvcc will now only be enrolling more students interested in a BSN rather than having students interested in a ADN....... or is this just a way to weed out alot of their applicants ?????? makes you say and think HHHHMM ????????

I just applied with 17 points. I am not sure if that is good enough. Any advice?
