Hello! So I went to Los Medanos to do my undergrad, but I just recently transfered to Chico State to do the nursing program here. From what I understand, LMC has a pretty good ASN program. The only issue is that it is completely lottery based, as I'm pretty sure most junior colleges are. This is why I did not apply to any JC programs, because as long as you meet the minimum requirements (3.0 GPA, 75% on TEAS I think?) then everyone has the same chance; they do not take merit into account as much as they should. However, I have heard that it could take a couple of years to finally get in. They used to put your name in the lottery more than once for every time you have applied, but due to impact they have discontinued this practice.
However I do know that their program is pretty good, and they also sometimes hold classes/meetings about the program that you could search for on LMC's website. But I would definitely recommend applying to all 3 colleges to increase your chances!
Good Luck!
