My college accepted 16 students in the program the term I applied and was accepted.

I am so grateful that I had no idea how limited the slots were until after I got my acceptance letter.

I'll (hopefully, most likely, almost defenitly) be attending McLennan Community College in Waco, Tx. For the LVN its 30 and the RN is 65 , each fall and spring. I never believed all the hype about a nursing shortage until now. Our school has changed the deadline from April 1st, to April 18th, to May 9th as they have yet to receive enough applicants/ qualified applicants. We work on a 'points' scale for the LVN program here, the maximum possible is 18, and I'm at 14, and was told by the program director's secretary that of the 20 applications they have recieved, only myself and another have that many (11 points is considered 'competitive'). In addition, she also informed me that many of those 20 applicants also applied to the RN program, in hopes that if they are not accepted they have a back-up. Several years ago they had 200+ applicants for both programs. Sad, really, but it sure makes me more hopefull of getting an acceptance letter!

Daytona Beach College, accepts 120 for the fall and then 40 for the Spring Classes!

We started with about 75 in fundamentals and about 15 of those were repeaters that had just failed fundamentals the semester before. We lost about 20 in fundamentals and another 13 in Med Surg 1, and so far another 1 has dropped out. I think after this semester we will be down below 40.

My RN program at a cc accepted 74 applicants out of 156 for the fall. Once per year. That's down from 96 applicants accepted last year.

The BSN program I'm hoping to get in (I'll know in a month) admits once a year and admitted 72 last fall. As I understand it they don't have a set number of spots to fill it depends on faculty numbers. They got additional funding last year so could admit more. They pretty much said they don't think they'll admit as many for this fall....
