Bummed out.Anybody receive their letter from Pasadena City College? I'm an alternate.

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Ok, so I am a little bummed out. I received my letter from PCC today and I'm an alternate for the ladder program. I guess I should be happy to even be an alternate but I was so hoping on getting in there. I have apps in at a couple other local schools but this was my first choice :angryfire So anyways, has anyone had any experience in being on a wait list? I'm guessing its a good thing but how many alternates do they actually take? I have to attend the orientation with all the other students who got in, hoping that one of them drop so I can get in. I feel so evil he he. Anyways sorry I had to vent. Good luck to everyone who is still waiting.

The bridge started today at PCC & there were about three alternates present. Did you consider just showing up? I know this is not possible for those of us that work, but, it looks like these alternates might get in (these alternate students were not on the list, they just took it upon themselves to show up). The class should be a group of 20 but I think I counted about 18 or 19 today. This is just a suggestion. You can PM me back if you want more info. Best wishes.

don't be bummed, I am sure that you will get into a nursing soon I have an appointment on August 2 to see what classes I need to take to get in the RN program at Antelope Valley College and have been told that there is a 2 year wait list!!!:doh: that's why I am going to start taking as many classes at AVC as I can handle so that I can put my name on the list as soon as possible, look at it this way at least you can apply to nursing school right now!!! I want to but I can't until I finish all of my requirments!!! I hope that you get into nursing soon and best of luck:balloons:

I was on a waiting list for the school that I will be starting at in the fall. I didn't think I would be called because I was kind of high on the list. I think a lot of people apply to a lot of schools and have to turn some down. I will keep my fingers crossed for you! Good luck!

Best of luck to you!!! I look forward to finding out that you got in!!

Here's a little update. I got into LACo College of nursing and just finished my transition class. All I have to say is wow. What an experience. They have basic and I mean basic equipment. Lets just say we make do with what we have. Thanks to all for the great words of encouragement.
