Re: Sac City or Modesto JC
I'm first semester at SCC. I got into both the part-time and the extended campus.
The full-time and part-time programs are both lottery based. You have to have a 'B' in all prereqs to be qualify for the lottery and the drawing is random. They are also going to start requiring the TEAS examination.
The extended campus has a lot of information on the selection process on the website (go to losrios.edu, click on SCC, then on nursing, then extended campus). The selection is based on grades, then 2 letters of recommendation. They said no preference is given to Sutter employees (I'm not employed at all and I got in). Work experience in the healthcare field is considered in the event of a tie if GPA & letters of rec put two candidates in the same position for acceptance. Extended campus requires the TEAS already.
I love the SCC programs. I feel like I am getting a great nursing educaiton.
