Quick question, I noticed that a lot of people have waiting lists and very competitive app process. I'm curious as to what number students everyones' school takes a year, and how many applicants there were

I ask because I just found out my school takes 64 2X a year and they only had 64 applicants this semester and less than that last semester!

ok, last I heard they have 178 spots and 300-400 applicants.

BUT the biggest problem is where you finish your Upper divisional classes. The placement I want only has 8 spots open.

They have a waiting list too...

My school admitted three classes a year into the nursing program. Each class had 30 spots and approx. 230 applied for those 30 seats.

Forty-eight spots available in the Fall only. 450 applicants this year. There is no wait list; you have to re-apply the next year.

Two other local (within an hour's drive) ADN programs admit a similar percentage of students. There is one BSN program at a small Catholic college that always has room, but the tuition is $20K+/year. The max tuition at the ADN programs is $5K/year.

the ADN prog I just graduated from accepts 80 each fall.

There is currently a two year waiting list and they go by application date and NET scores.

hope this helps
