LA County College of Nursing LVN-RN Summer 2014

U.S.A. California

Published

Hello everyone!

I wanted to start a thread for those of us who applied to the Los Angeles County College of Nursing and Allied Health for the LVN-RN bridge Summer 2014 cohort. I took the TEAS V on 2/22/14 and I passed with the 5 bonus points! Yay! This is the only school I want to go to and really hope I get in otherwise I have to wait another semester since this is the ONLY school I applied to! yikes! So I am anxiously waiting for the acceptance letters to be sent out in mid-April! I am a little nervous since I have not worked as an LVN so I hope that my schooling has prepared me enough for this program! We will see!

YES, Smylee!!! I was praying that this time it would be different and they would get things out on time but my hope of that is dwindling!! And of course the mailman is late today, I'm going crazy over here!! There is still today and tomorrow that I might get some kind of notification but we will see! Thanks for the reply, I was beginning to think I was actually crazy by talking with only myself on this thread since no one else has been replying! LOL!! :roflmao:

khaminh, CONGRATULATIONS! How exciting! I haven't received anything yet and no phone call but we will see next week! If you don't mind me asking, how many points do you guys have? What were your stats and have you guys worked as an LVN or anything else in the medical field?

You know I have your back, although I am applying to the generic ADN program, I'm always checking on you. You are never talking to yourself :)

Congratulations!!! That's fantastic news!

I wonder why they do things that way where they call some people instead of just sending all notifications via mail?

Thanks guys. My friends and I had 90 points for the application :D. I think the reason why they're calling first is to make sure the accepted individual still want to go there and not waste a letter since the first think she asked me was whether or not I am still interested in going there. Maybe it happens before where people committed then not go?

Oh yeah, that makes sense. Great job on the points! I also have 90 points so *hopefully* I will be getting a call tomorrow! Have you worked as an lvn or in health care? I have not so I am a little worried about clinical :sour: because I have heard it is very intense!

I currently work at a hospital in LA so I hope that would help with the clinical experience. You pick it up as you go so don't worry I've also heard that being an LVN/working might hurt you since you picked up bad habits so it can go either way :)). Good luck to you.

Oh that experience will be a plus I am sure! I guess some people may need to undo bad habits so there is an upside and downside to both situations! Well I am anxiously waiting for tomorrow! I really hope I get a call!

Congrats to all who got accepted!!! I haven't gotten a call and it's starting to make me more nervous knowing that the lady said she would call some on Monday
