Hi, is anyone applying to the RN program at Cerritos College in California for Fall 2025 and Spring 2026. If so how many points do you have?

It's the email you put on your application I put my Cerritos college email that's where I received it. 

OK! Ya I got a confirmation when I sent in my application. Haven't gotten any email of accept or denied yet. 

I was admitted for Spring 2026, who are the people admitted for fall 2025, are they advanced placement?

Got my acceptance for Spring 2026. Congrats to those accepted! 

To those who got accepted what are your stats? 

I'm applied for the advanced placement, LVN to RN , haven't received an email yet.

I got an acceptance letter but I'm going to decline because I got into Santa ana and its closer

I just called them cause I'm doing RN program. Still no email but they are checking for me. 

I was selected as an alternate! I'm surprised because my stats were really low. Goodluck to everyone else though

How many point did you apply with ? 

What does it say when you are selected as an alternate?

I can't tell if I got in or if I'm an alternate. This is what my letter says:

"Dear Nursing Applicant,

Congratulations! You have been Selected for Admission to the Spring 2026 Semester of the Cerritos College Nursing Program! You will begin First Semester Nursing Courses on Monday, January 12th, 2026!

This is an incredible opportunity for you and your future! We thank you for your patience as we carefully reviewed each application and made selections.
