Saddleback Nursing School, Spring 2013

U.S.A. California

Published

Hi all!

I am a pre-nursing student getting ready to put in my applications for Spring 2013. I was wondering if anyone might be able to give me a general idea of what Saddleback College's Nursing program is like? I really would like to get a sense of what the curriculum will be like, how much time might be devoted to studying outside of class, the amount of hours spent in clinicals, etc. Of course everyone's experience is different, but if I could get some perspective as to what I may be facing in the next few years I think I would be better prepared to tackle the challenge. I have a preschool-age son now, and by Spring 2013 I will have a baby daughter as well, so I would like to wrap my head around what my school commitment will look like and plan in advance for the amount/type of help I will need for my family. Thanks for your time in advance!

I'm so excited for the letters to come out! I wonder if they will send them out early. I'm also thinking that since there were less applications that they will accept a wider range of students points wise. :)

I stopped by the nursing office and they said they weren't even close to ready! >.

Only inform by mail, no email.. for some reason I thought I read that they would send an email out as well.

Good luck!

They're not even close to being ready to send them out? or not ready finalizing the people they accepted :unsure:? I hope they're just not ready to send the letters out. :)

I think they came out a week or so early for the fall (so I heard), so maybe they will come out early this time. If not, we'll probably get them by Sept 30 like they posted. I hope we all get in. :)

I heard they are behind schedule and to expect letters the first part of October.

I just go the mail. I got in!!!!!! wishing everyone got in!! Yayy

Got mail. Accepted. Yey!!!:yes:

does anyone know if they are going to send letters if u didnt get accepted?

I still havnt gotten anything in the mail.. maybe today? to the ones that got accepted: do you live closer to the college?

i didnt get in.. my pre req gpa was too low: 2.69.. im pretty bummed

I got in!! Keep your head up I got very low points and got in! I had about 60 Pts unless I was able to get some from my job.

Congrats to all that got in. I didn't. :( What does it mean when it says "we are holding your application in a 1st pool which we will pull from should any of the 60 students or alternates decline"? Does that mean that all of us that did not got in are in the same pool and I could be any number? Or does that mean that I could be an 11th or 12th alternate if that had such a thing? Please let me know. I'm still hoping to get in. :)
