• Be sure to include current contact information for TWO recommenders on page 3. We will be electronically sending them recommendation forms which will be due back to us by 5 p.m. on June 21, 2024 in order for your application to be considered complete.
• You may download and include as many employee verification forms (page 5) as you need.

• Apply to Edmonds College by visiting our steps to apply web page, or apply in person with Enrollment Services in Lynnwood Hall on the 1st floor of the Edmonds Campus.
• Applicants will submit proof of admission with their application by providing a copy of the automated confirmation email that contains their ctcLink student ID
• If you were admitted to Edmonds College more than a year ago and you no longer have your automated welcome email, please create a Doc to upload with your application that includes your:

• Name
• ctcLink ID number
• Triton ID (student email address)
• Year you originally applied to Edmonds

*If you need help locating any of this information, please reach out to Enrollment Services at 425.640.1000 or registration@edmonds.edu. 

• Unofficial transcripts will be used as a preliminary way to verify completion of all prerequisite course requirements. You will need a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.75 or higher for the 7 prerequisite courses with no less than a 2.0 in any one course. To calculate your GPA: add up the decimal grades earned in each of the 7 prerequisite courses, then divide that total by 7 to get your average cumulative GPA. If it is less than 2.75, your application will not meet our minimum qualifying criteria. 
• Unofficial transcripts from multiple institutions can be submitted.
  Official sealed transcripts must be submitted to credentials within three weeks of notification of admission to the PN program, or admission offer may be rescinded. All official transcripts submitted will be evaluated for course equivalencies.
• All international transcripts must be translated and evaluated by an approved agency prior to application. Contact Enrollment Services for more information about this process.

• Download/save a copy of your results sheet from the ATI website and attach it with your other application documents. It should have your overall score and subscores on one sheet - no need to purchase a score transcript from the ATI website (this is an additional fee and is not necessary).
• There are no disqualifying scores. You may retake the TEAS and submit results from multiple attempts, and we will consider your highest scores. 
  There is a recommended total score at Proficient or above (≥59%) and recommended Reading subscore of ≥50%
• If an applicant has already taken another applicable exam such as PAX (≥100) or HESI (≥850), we will consider these scores in place of the TEAS. Please submit official proof of these scores with your application. 

• Special consideration will be given, if needed, to applicants with a valid CNA certificate/license, MA certificate/license, or military corp experience.
