Hey ?  I had 78 points, and there were quite a few people admitted after me. I know someone who had a 70, and she wasn't one of the very last admits so hang in there! 

Do you know around when you got your acceptance letter last year!

I believe it was the second week of June. 

Specializes in CNA.

I had a question about clinicals, are they during the weekdays or do they go on weekends? Trying to figure out my job schedule when it comes up. Thank you!

Hi! it honestly depends on the class, and can change from semester to semester. For example, for my first 8 weeks I had clinicals on Tuesday/ Wednesdays from 6-1ish, but the next 8 weeks I had a 12hr clinical on a Friday, and some on a Saturday...

 

My best advise is to be upfront with your work and see if they can be flexible as these things can change within a week's notice as we are at the mercy of limited clinical locations.

 

 

Hi everyone,

The next round of acceptances has gone out and I received an email that I got a spot in the program. I'm super thankful for the opportunity, but have already decided to go with CCSF as it is much closer to where I live. Wishing all of the best to the next person in line who will get the open spot! ?

Congratulations! Would you be willing to share how many points you applied with ? Good luck with CCSF! I've heard it's an excellent program

I never got an official points number, but I'm pretty certain it was 84.

I emailed them for an update and they said the lottery was done but not all spots are filled up yet as people are going to other schools.

Last year they admitted people up until the last minute, literally.  Some folks were called on Friday night and the program started Monday.  I know waiting e worst feeling ever, but it's still only June. A lot Can happen in two months!  Hang in there!
