Average wait to get into an LVN program in CA?

I plan to apply to the LVN program offered at College of the Redwoods this Spring. I've contacted the school and asked 3 times about the average wait and I've gotten no answer. They just ignore my question, which makes me think the wait must be long for their nursing programs since they don't want to answer that! I heard the wait for the RN program is about 3 years. How about the LVN-RN program? I just want to have some sort of idea as to how long it will take me to get in once I've applied.

The average wait time at other schools in CA for LVN programs can also give me an idea of how long the wait should be. So, if any of you who did a LVN program could let me know how long it took you to start the program once you applied, I would greatly appreciate it! :-)

Thank you so much in advance! :)

    Being # 4, I think that you will definately get in, but I don't know what will happen if you don't show up to the mandatory orientation. Make sure you get a response about that, and if they say it's ok for you to miss it then you should try to get something in writing that says that...just to make sure!

    Futurenurse84, thanks for the feedback :-) I contacted the school and was told that my chances of getting in this Fall are good, so I will keep my fingers crossed! At least I'm guaranteed to get into the Fall 2013 program if I don't get in this fall. I let the health occupations office know that I wont be able to make it to the orientation on June 10th, so they are making note of that. I guess they might even videotape the orientation for students in my situation. I will contact them again closer to June 10th to make sure that they know I wont be there for the orientation.
