Antelope Valley College Spring 2016

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hello everyone,

I have just applied to the nursing program at Antelope Valley College in Lancaster. I just wanted to see if anyone else has applied yet. Hopefully we see how this goes.

Ohh okay. I wasn't sure if it changed because the requirements changed. So I hope it's still November!

Me too! At least if I don't get in Spring I know I'll be in for next Fall

Are you guys working full time at the moment? And do you plan on still working once you get into the program?

I'm just a "nanny" for a family in my neighborhood. Sometimes I feel like I'm the mom haha but it's not full time & they fully expect me to focus on the program.. It's mainly while they get a store up & running.

What about you?

I've been a stay at home wife lol I've been meaning to get a job but things always come up & now that I've been actually looking around, I feel like I might get in soon. So for now I just do some volunteering and babysitting. I know people still work & I've heard of someone that was pregnant while in the program. Insane!

I know it'd be hard but I feel like I'd get overwhelmed if I did both, since I've never worked and only focused on school.

Wow, I'd never do the program pregnant lol but I know what you mean, school has been the only thing I've done mostly too.. Like babysitting for me isn't really a job but they pay me lol I love the kids tho!! If I had to babysit them every once in a while durin the program I totally would but right now I literally take/pick up from school & babysit the 4month old most of the day & help with homework & chores.. So i wouldn't have the free time to do all that on school days & then trying to get studying in.. That program is a full time job!! Haha

I have a job. I work as a server. I think when I get in the program I'll work only 2 or 3 days a week and at night. We close pretty early where I work. So it should be okay. Work and school isn't too hard to juggle. I always thought it would be. But if you don't have to work don't haha. It is easier. But it's doable! Also, is there any way they can tell you what semester you'll make it into. Without the letters, like does Karen know, and can she tell you? Or can she only do that for the wait list number?

Idk. I've never ask anything other than what number.. Maybe an estimate, but like everyone's being told that they're taking more ppl from the point system so I have no idea :/

But as far as you know no one has got there letter for spring yet, right?!

Up Vote Up Vote ×

Everyone I know hasn't got anything except for either the points paper to fill out & turn in or the blue paper (saying you're still interested in doing the program) to turn in depending on how long they've waited.. Let me see if I have an email from before, cuz I swear I thought Karen told me November lol

Hi Kristena:

Please understand that are using the multiple screening criteria (points system) to determine admissions for spring 2016, with a smaller percentage of students taken from the "first-come, first-served" waiting list.

You are currently number 50 on the "first-come, first-served" waiting list.

Students will be notified of their admission status for the spring in November. Please note that no verbal notifications will be made.

so that's an email from August lol I was freakin out a little bit, " like what if ppl got letters already & I missed it?!!" We didn't though :)
