Saddleback/Santa Ana Programs?

[ryqu]

Hello,

I'm new to this board, and I'm desperate to get into a nursing program in orange county or la! I've been on the wait list for santa ana college since Oct08; started low 700s now moved to high 600s on their waitlist. And I've been waiting for my acceptance/rejection letter from saddleback - but still have not heard from them. Does anyone happen to have any advice or tips on these programs?

About how long does one stay on the waitlist for santa ana college before they are admitted??

Any help would be really really appreciated - thank you!

Did you get into any other programs?

I only applied to Saddleback. I was suppose to apply in GWC, but on their website it said that only GWC or OCC students could apply for January. The rest who took the pre-requisite classes to other colleges could only apply this coming October. Im also planning to apply in Cypress. Anyway, have you taken pharmacology and gerontology in Saddleback?

I am actually living in San Diego right now moving up to the Irvine area in Sept. So I haven't taken Pharm. I have taken gerontology at San Diego City Colllege... Life span development I am hoping that it transfers. I plan on taking Pharm next semester and then reapplying next year since I don't have the Teas complete yet I can't apply in June. I am also applying to Cyprus, GWC. I am trying to keep my chin up I know it will all work out. It's crazy that all A's and one B doesn't get you into a community college. Anyway keep in touch, it's nice to know someone is going through the same situation as I am.
