Hello!

I could not find a cohort for Fall 2025, so we can use this!

This was my first semester applying, so for those who applied before and sending in the packing as well, how do you feel about the whole application being fully online?

What points did everyone apply with? I applied with just 70 points. My TEAS score was not the best, but I managed to barely qualify. Let me know how you all did!

Really! That's awesome but nerve wrecking at the same time... Does anyone know how many applicants to they accept? And how many go on the alternatives list?

They only took 1 alternate last time. But that was the lowest number. Usually they take 15 or 20, I'm told.  Hopefully this time it's more and not less.

My application just turned to eligible so hopefully we find out soon! Good luck everyone 🙂

Strangely, mine was showing "eligible”’last week and now it doesn't. Not sure what that means. I guess I'll find out tomorrow! 

@SuzieKyoo mine just disappeared too

OK, maybe they're just in the database doing updates to everyone's info right now. 

I hope so, I did see the status this morning so this is definitely new. Maybe they're running the lottery but covering the response...

Yeah, good thinking! It definitely could be that. Just confirmation that they're working on it and we'll hear some news tomorrow.

Every time I get an email from this thread I see "allnurses" and "American River College" in the email heading and I freak out thinking they emailed 😂 

Good luck everyone! My eligible also disappeared, must be close!  

Hi guys! I got an update email stating that they will be running the lottery later this afternoon.

Hi! Had you email them previously or they just sent it randomly?
