When do letters go out at Weatherford? I applied with 22 out of 26 points and can't hardly stand the wait between Weatherford and TCC.

Hi! The letters usually go out the day before our spring break...so for you, it should be March 13th. It sounds like you have a pretty good chance with the amount of points you have vs. possible points. Best of luck to you! Let me know if you have any other questions.

I would like to know what the days of the week/hours of the nursing program are for Weatherford. I will be applying for the fall 09 semester and would like to know what hours on what days I will be attending so I can plan for a job. Any info on the program would be appreciated.

When I went we had class or clinicals every day for the first semester but I heard they had decreased the hours so I'm not sure if it's still the same.

Will someone tell me how the point system works. I was looking on the WC website and can't really find what the point system is. I'm at TCC taking my pre-req's right now, but was curious about the WC point system.

WC emailed me some info which included how their points system works. I'll try and email it to you.

I was wondering what you thought of the program? Do you have any complaints about it?

I had no complaints about the program. I won't say it wasn't challenging but that left me very well prepared for the NCLEX and for work as an RN.

Any classes taken from a college receiving state funds in TX will transfer to another college receiving those funds (Weatherford to TCC, or Weatherford to MSU, ect). However, those classes may not apply to the degree that you are seeking and each college has: limitations, for example - most nursing schools require that your chemistry be taken within the past five years, and pre-reqs, for example - WC required sociology at the time I was preparing to apply, but MSU doesn't - so I have 3 hours wasted!!! Always check the college you are wanting to apply to for pre-reqs because there are big differences. I remember looking at TWU and their pre-reqs were way different. Private colleges (Baylor or TCU) may or may not accept pre-reqs from state colleges. I think nearly each college has a transcript transfer site that will tell you if they accept X class from Z college, be sure and check that too :)

Hello! I am going to be completing Micro this summer @ TCC. The only question I have is that someone said that it is best to apply in June when the application period begins. I have all other pre-req's completed but will not be done with Micro until July 2nd. Will this make it hard for me to get accepted to the program since I will not be able to apply until I have completed the course? Does it really matter if you apply @ the beginning of June?? Thanks for the info!

It doesn't matter if you apply in the beginning of the application period. You have to have completed the pre reqs in order to be to get the points for them. I applied the last week and got in. You get a certain amount of points and that is all that matters. You can contact the nursing department and Karen will email you their point system.

Thanks!! I will be done by July so I can make the August deadline.
