Camden County College Acceptance Rate, GPA, and Admission Requirements

"Nursing at Camden County College" actually means three separate programs sharing a campus: CCC's own ADN/PN programs, the Rutgers School of Nursing 2+2 BSN program, and Our Lady of Lourdes School of Nursing - each with its own application, admitting body, and GPA requirements. Decide which credential and pathway you want first, then apply to that specific program rather than assuming a single "nursing application" covers all three.

This program combines two years of prerequisite coursework at CCC with two years of Rutgers-faculty-taught nursing education on the same Blackwood campus, but admission is competitive and science grades weigh heavily - multiple withdrawals, repeats, or failures in science courses specifically make an applicant noticeably less competitive, even if your overall GPA looks fine.

Lourdes requires applying to both Camden County College and Lourdes School of Nursing separately, with its own 2.5 GPA minimum calculated across specific prerequisite courses (including at least one science course from a defined list) and its own TOEFL requirements for non-native English speakers. Treating this as an extension of your CCC application rather than a standalone second application is a common, costly mistake.

Admission to the Practical Nursing certificate is ranked through a rubric combining TEAS test scores and course grades - meeting all criteria doesn't guarantee a seat. Historically, accepted students have had only a two-week window to formally accept their seat once notified, so plan your spring around being reachable and ready to respond quickly during the notification period.
