Anyone apply at ARC for 2022? Has your status changed to qualified yet?

Oh so sorry to hear. Were they requiring it there? Wouldn’t they require it at ARC?

ARC highly likely requires it. Unfortunately, all nursing school programs seem to require the COVID vax, no exceptions, medical or religious. It is because the clinical sites are no exceptions for nursing students. At least according to Samuel Merrit University, all the clinical sites are no exceptions.

It's illegal to deny religious and medical exemptions, and ARC IS accepting them ?

That's good to know they are accepting them. SMU accepts them too, but the clinical sites will not accept them (at least all the sites SMU uses). So they said we would have to go on leave for clinical at SMU and not be able to graduate. I'm assuming it will be a similar issue for all sac nursing programs.
Hopefully, ARC is different !

I hope so too ?
I have a few basic questions if anyone can answer:
It seems that ARC doesn't accept group speech for the co-req and Sierra does not either? Is this correct? Can I still apply to the program and do the speech class later?
It also seems ARC,SCC, and Sierra is a lottery system. So throwing in three applications seems ideal until finally accepted into one? Many people go years without getting in which makes me worried, after all it's random luck.

They are a lottery system, so it's best to apply to as many as possible. They will only be one application cycle per year for these programs, so def apply to all at once for the best chance.
As for the first question, it's best to e-mail the nursing program and ask. I think Speech is a prereq and not a coreq.

Sorry I don’t understand. ARC is accepting what?
~8 weeks after the deadline.
We were talking about vaccine exemptions. ARC and SMU take them, but the clinical sites the SMU uses do not. Not sure if it will be the same for ARC.
