CCSF RN Spring 2016 Lottery

Published

Hi all-

I made this thread for everyone hoping to get into CCSF's spring 2016 RN program, so we can keep each other updated.

This would be my 4th attempt in getting into the program since I finished my prereqs and gen ed in 2011, got my LVN license in 2013 because after my first 2 failed attempts, I figured I might as well get my LVN while waiting to get into the RN program.

I submitted my application in person today because I was told I'd be put in two different lottery pools (one for regular enrollment and one for advanced placement for lvns) which could increase my chances of getting in, and needed to have my license verified in person. This would be my first time applying for the advanced placement, because I'd rather not skip a sem so I can benefit from taking the courses to refresh my memory. Are there any of you fellow lvns who've tried applying through both the regular enrollment and the Advanced placement, and can tell me about their experience/how the process works?

I was also told the reason why they won't be posting results online ever anymore is due to HIPAA or privacy of the applicants/future students, which is very much understandable. We should expect to hear back for results November or December! And so the waiting game begins..Good luck to us all! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

does anyone know how many people applied this semester?

Thanks all for the updates! I have been wondering when I will hear from them.

This is my first time applying to CCSF.

I called today and they said close to 300 applicants. And they will send out the letters around Nov-Dec

Thanks! It takes longer than I have thought.

Hi all-

I received the letter from CCSF today stating they carefully reviewed my application but couldn't admit me due to my gpa, I will be calling them on Monday to get a breakdown of how they came up with a 2.43 gpa, I have an A in English, B for micro, and Cs for Anatomy and Physiology taken separately. I wish they miscalculated in error 😔

Hi all-

I received the letter from CCSF today stating they carefully reviewed my application but couldn't admit me due to my gpa, I will be calling them on Monday to get a breakdown of how they came up with a 2.43 gpa, I have an A in English (3 units), B for micro, (4 units), C for Anatomy (4 units) and C for Physiology (5 units)= 2.63 gpa.

Oh no. Yeah that should be a 2.66. Hopefully it was an error. Did you get a chance to speak with them today?

I called them today and they said they are hoping to send out the letters by mid Nov. Nov needs to hurry. I am so anxious. Hoping my 2nd try

Hoping I get lucky this 2nd time.

Hello. Haven't seen any activity in a couple of days on this board. After my third attempt of applying to CCSF, I made my way onto the standby list and have been invited to take the TEAS. I'm very hopeful and looking to hear if more people here have heard from CCSF?

Hi! They told me they are still reviewing applications right now and will send a letter by mid Nov. How does the stand by list work? This is the first time I've heard of it.

I have no idea honestly since I've never made it this far before lol. They've invited me to take the TEAS at CCSF so I'm guessing (and hoping) my name is pretty close after 50 as an alternate in case the first 50 don't progress. I'll have to call tomorrow though and find out what that means and my spot on the list hopefully! Does anyone know what it means to be in the first 50 slots? Did the RN department actually review these applicants' transcripts and they qualify and are in as long as they pass the TEAS/background or were they just the first 50 names picked and still need to get their pre-reqs evaluated? Another question I'll be asking when I call tomorrow.
