Admissions
Admissions at Bellevue College
Competitive.
- Acceptance rate (%):
- No verified acceptance or admission rate for the ADN program is published on official Bellevue College (.edu) sources. External sources like EduRank list Bellevue College’s overall acceptance rate as 100%, but this applies to general college admissions—not selective nursing programs—and originates from a third-party site, not Bellevue College itself.
- Minimum GPA thresholds / prerequisites:
- Applicants must achieve at least a 2.0 grade in each prerequisite course. Additionally, a cumulative GPA of 3.0 is required for both the science prerequisites and the professional communication prerequisite courses.
- TEAS test requirements:
- Applicants must take the TEAS (Test of Essential Academic Skills) within two years of application. The minimum required score is 70% in all content areas—with no rounding allowed. Retakes are allowed with no limit.
- Admission criteria documentation also states that TEAS scores contribute to a points-based selection system, with higher scores yielding more points (70–79.9 = 1 point; 80–91.9 = 2 points; 92–100 = 3 points).
- Additional admission/prerequisite notes:
- Applicants must complete nine prerequisite courses before starting the program. One course may be “in-progress” at the tim
