American River College (ARC) Spring 2025

Published

I couldn't find a post for those of us applying to ARC for the Spring '25 cohort.

Let me know if you're applying and what # you were on the application list. I applied on the 10th and there were around 35 applications at the time.

Best of luck to all of us!

Good luck! I hope you get in. If I were you I would make sure to work on getting your CPR certification if you haven't, then making sure you get titers done for Hep B, MMR, and Varicella. You also gotta make sure your TDaP is current and that you do a 2 step TB skin test. It feels like they rush everything at you and as an alternate I feel like you have even less time.

@Bee123 

they usually want them to be done about a week before class begins or so. Mine was due January 10th and I started this last Spring of 2024


(also ensure your CPR card is BLS through the American Heart Association, that is all they will accept)

Anyone accepted for orientation get a follow up email? It says in the first email that additional information will be sent but I haven't received anything yet and orientations tomorrow.

Thank you
