If I retook a class for a better grade at a different school from the first time, does admissions thoroughly go through the transcripts to find the better grade, or is there a place on the application to indicate your grades - then admissions will just confirm what you listed?
Erika Alunan
52:04
Does that mean that we need both unofficial and official transcripts? Unofficial for the application and official to admissions and records (not to nursing)?
Anna Clineff
52:51
if i’m a senior in high school. should i focus on just applying to saddleback and registering for those classes? so when would I be able to apply to the nursing program? would it be my second year fall semester because all the classes would be done?

Cody Nguyen
01:03:37
If I have taken a STATS class in college, and I received a grade higher than a C, does that satisfy the “Math requirement for AA/AS or higher”? If so, can I submit my official transcript to Saddleback directly, or do I have to get it cleared through a petition.

01:06:51
Can we put more than 1 AS degree in our application since the maximum points that can be earned for the academic section is 5?
Cody Nguyen
01:08:01
For the STATS class, should I still schedule an appointment with a counselor to guarantee I do not need a petition, or should I just submit an official transcript to saddleback?
