(This Packet is for initial application for admission into the Dallas College Associate Degree Nursing Program and is not used to apply for readmission into the Dallas College Nursing Program)

Revised for the Spring 25/Fall 25 Application Cycle

Program Summary and Accreditation

The Dallas College School of Health Sciences offers a 60-credit hour Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) curriculum leading to an Associate of Applied Science Degree. The program is offered at the following campuses: Brookhaven, El Centro, Mountain View and Northlake.

The ADN program at Dallas College will prepare you for a career in health care that allows you to make a difference in people's lives. Our faculty draw on their knowledge and experience to ensure student success.

The program is accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (Address: 3343 Peachtree Road, Suite 850, Atlanta, GA 30326; Telephone: 404-***-****; Fax: 404-***-****; Email: ****@**********.***; Website: www.acenursing.org;) and approved by the Texas Board of Nursing (Address: 333 Guadalupe St., Suite 3-460, Austin, TX 78701-3944; Telephone: 512-***-****; Fax: 512-***-****; Email: *********@***.*****.***; Website: www.bon.texas.gov).

Note: An FBI background check and fingerprinting are required for registration and formal entrance to the program and is conducted after a student has applied and been accepted to the program. You will not be admitted into classes until the formal background check has been cleared by the Texas Board of Nursing (TBON) with a blue card or Declaratory Order.

How can I find out if I am eligible to take the licensing examination? Here is the link to the Texas Board of Nursing licensure questions. https://www.bon.texas.gov/licensure_eligibility.asp.html

Admission to the Dallas College ADN program is competitive. The process for identifying and ranking the top applicants is outlined in this information packet. Those students deemed eligible to apply will be placed into an applicant pool for consideration.

This information packet contains specific application guidelines and requirements. Submission of an application packet verifies that an individual has 1) read the packet thoroughly, 2) obtained all necessary documents from designated websites, and 3) understood the policies and procedures for application and acceptance to the program.

Program information packets are revised throughout the academic year as needed. Program guidelines are subject to change. Students are responsible for ensuring they have the latest program information.

Equal Educational Opportunity

Educational opportunities are offered by Dallas College without regard to race, color,

religion, national origin, sex, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.

The Dallas College ADN program has three variations. This packet combines common attributes of the three as well as a separate section for each that describes information specific to that variation. The three variations are:

Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) – available to any qualified applicant

Licensed Vocational Nurse to Registered Nurse (LVN-RN) Advanced Placement – available to applicants with a current LVN certification in the State of Texas

Methodist Health System (MHS) Associate Degree Nursing – available only to applicants who are volunteers with, employees of or are family members of employees of the Methodist Health System (pg. 20)

B. General Admission Requirements to the College

Applicants to the Associate Degree Nursing Program must meet all college admission requirements as outlined in the official college catalog.

Applicants must have earned either a high school diploma or General Education Diploma (GED) in addition to complying with Texas Success Initiative (TSI) requirements before they will be eligible to apply to the program. Students should consult the Success Coaching (advising) to determine their TSI status prior to application to a Health Sciences program.

Official College Transcripts

Prior to application to the Associate Degree Nursing Program, potential applicants must have submitted official transcripts from all colleges and universities the applicant has attended whether the coursework is or is not relevant to the program application. Transcripts from Dallas College campuses are not required.

The transcripts must be current with the print date no earlier than three years prior to the applicant’s anticipated admission to the program. If the official transcripts have not been submitted, the individual’s application will be voided.

Official transcripts must be sent electronically from the applicant’s previous colleges to ******************@*************.***. Transcripts sent by the applicant in pdf or other formats are not accepted. Transcripts may also be mailed from a college in a sealed envelope to Dallas College, Attn: Admissions Processing, 3737 Motley Drive, Mesquite, TX 75150.

Initial Advisement

Students who are beginning college for the first time will follow the Steps to Enrollment which will guide them from applying to the college system to placement testing, selecting a degree plan, contacting a Success Coach, and enrolling in prerequisite courses.

A student who has not completed college coursework should request a general Associate Degree plan from a Success Coach (advisor) as a starting point toward future application to a health science program. Note: Additional learning frameworks courses may be required for certain students.

C. Prerequisite/Support Courses

Applicants must complete the prerequisite courses listed below with a minimum grade of a “C” or higher and a cumulative GPA of 3.0 to apply to the nursing program. The prerequisite GPA is considered in the point award ranking process. An applicant may present credit by exam, CLEP, or “AP” credit for 1 of the prerequisite courses.

Note: Dosage Calculations for Nursing (RNSG 1008), a continuing education course, is also a prerequisite course to the nursing program. More for information, please see section F.

D. Evaluation of Previous Coursework

Official transcripts are fully evaluated by the Dallas College Transcript Evaluation Center after a student has been enrolled for at least one regular semester. However, students can request an Educational Plan, an evaluation of their previous coursework toward a health science program. The Educational Plan is a preliminary, unofficial degree plan for advisement purposes and only reflects specific courses toward a health science program. Educational Plans are optional and are not required for application to a health science program. They are usually completed within 4-8 weeks. An Educational Plan should be requested at least one semester prior to a program application filing deadline if possible.

The School of Health Sciences and the Allied Health Admissions Office reserve the right to accept or reject any coursework completed at other colleges presented for transfer evaluation toward health science programs.

Note: Previous coursework is evaluated toward the program degree plan and does not include evaluation of additional courses toward BSN programs.

Five-Year Time Limit Select Courses

BIOL 2401, BIOL 2402, BIOL 2420 or BIOL 2421, RNSG 1301 and RNSG 1311 must be completed within five years of anticipated program entry. There are no exceptions to the five-year time limit. No waivers of the five-year time limit are considered.

Credit by Examination, CLEP, and Advanced Placement Credit

Credit through CLEP, High School Advanced Placement Exams and Credit by Examination may be awarded for a limited number of courses toward health science programs including MATH 1314, PSYC 2301, and PSYC 2314. CLEP credit is not awarded for ENGL 1301. Advanced Placement (“AP”) credit for ENGL 1301, PSYC 2301, and MATH 1314 is acceptable if the credit appears on a college transcript as ENGL 1301, PSYC 2301, and MATH 1314 equivalency. A letter grade is not awarded for “AP” credit.

Note: An applicant to the Associate Degree Nursing Program may present credit by exam, CLEP, or “AP” credit for only one of the four prerequisite courses and one support course. Credit will be acknowledged but not calculated with the grade point average.

See detailed information regarding Credit by Exam, CLEP, and AP credit.

Coursework from International Institutions

Only microbiology and college-level algebra may be considered for transfer to the Associate Degree Nursing Program from colleges or universities outside the United States. No other courses will be considered. International Coursework Evaluation is a multi-step process which may take several weeks. The student must be enrolled in credit classes at a Dallas College campus before the evaluation process can be initiated.

E. Program Application Exam (TEAS)

TEAS

The TEAS test is a timed, computerized test which is usually completed in 3 hours. In addition to completing the five prerequisite courses, applicants to the ADN Program must also earn a minimum score of 55% or higher on the following sections of the TEAS test: Reading, Mathematics, Science, English and Language Usage.

Please note the following important information regarding the TEAS:

Test scores are valid for two years from date of testing to the application filing deadline date.

Applicants may take the TEAS at any approved testing site including the assessment center at the Downtown Health Sciences Center (formerly known as El Centro College Paramount Building). The approximate cost of the TEAS test is $82.00. Additional fees will apply to online testing.

Applicants are responsible for securing their own testing appointment at the location of their choice. Applicants are also responsible for submitting their score sheet with their program application materials.

ATI testing appointments fill quickly. Applicants are encouraged to schedule their TEAS several weeks prior to an application filing deadline. Do not assume that you will have your score sheet to submit with application materials if you test on the application deadline date.

The ATI-TEAS Study Guide is available on the ATI website https://www.atitesting.com/teas.

There is no limit on the number of times an applicant may take the TEAS test for application to the ADN Program, but you may only take the TEAS four times a year.

oIf the applicant desires to retake the TEAS, all four sections must be retaken in one sitting.

oOnly one score sheet can be submitted with scores of 55% or higher on each of the four required sections.

oIf more than one score sheet is submitted, the scores from the most recent testing attempt will be the recorded scores.

A 60-day waiting period is recommended before retesting, the applicant is encouraged to review the study guide.
