Los Angeles County School of Nursing

Hi there, not sure which program you guys applied. I applied for LVN-RN program for fall 2011. I got my acceptance letter 2 weeks ago, because my class will start on june 2011 (I have to take transition class before the fall semester). So it's possible that the school will send out acceptance letter around this time (early june) for RN basic program. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Congratulations girl,

Yes, I called today, Friday 27, and they said they were still reviewing applications and decisions should be made "within the next couple of weeks!"

Best of LUCK to you in Nursing School and hope you have a lot of FUN!

I just called County and was told that they've already started sending out letters...Has anyone heard? The woman would not tell me what the lowest points would be for acceptance into the program, so if anyone gets in, could you please share what your points are? This has really been horrible being made to wait. (I also asked if we would get letters telling us one way or another if we got in or not and she said that we would.)

I talked to County this morning and I was told the letters would be going out any day, and that they will know the points cut-off Monday morning. I was invited to call back then.

Oh thanks for the information!

I was told that "acceptance letters are not ready to go out."

Who knows maybe by next week some of us will know!

Good Luck FUTURE NURSES :)

I don't get why different people are getting different answers. Why was I told that they've already started sending out letters when "cabion 666" was told they're not ready to go out? I would love to have someone just respond to me in a sort of friendly way, much less "invite me to call back" like Snookiejc... Snookiejc, is there someone in particular you are speaking to when you call or some particular question you ask? I can just hear it in their voice how SICK TO DEATH they are of these calls--I've called twice in the last month, myself--but seriously, the next two years of our lives hang in the balance. It's more nerve-racking on our end, I'd say.

Letters are going out now. Best of luck to all of you FUTURE NURSES!!!!!

I got in with 89 points, I will tell you tomorrow what the cut off is!

snookiejc · Jun 7, 2011

I usually speak to ------, as she seems to be very helpful. I called today, and was told the cut off is 82 points, and I'm in! Letters are supposed to have been sent out this afternoon! Congrats to everyone who gets in, and to those who don't get in: KEEP TRYING! Never give up!

Thanks for posting, cabion 666 and snookiejc. We are anticipating answers and it is great to know that letters are FINALLY being sent. Congratulations!

Forminsko · Jun 8, 2011

Congrats Cabion & Snookie...I am really happy for you--I know how long this process is! Alas, it doesn't look good for me this semester. I'm taking Sociology & Speech this semester and should have A's in both, so next semester, my points should be high enough to assure my acceptance. Good luck to all the people still waiting to hear! Keep us posted.

snookiejc · Jun 8, 2011

Forminsko: you'll get in, don't give up. That's what happened to me last semester. I had not yet taken speech or sociology, so I only had 77 points, and the cutoff was 80. Take those two classes, and you'll be good to go!

Forminsko · Jun 8, 2011

Snookiejc: Thanks! You really are so sweet and supportive. I am actually super close to the cut-off this time. I still have some dim hope that enough people will decline that a few people under the cut-off will get in--like me, for example? Last year a friend had 79 and got a very late offer to the program, though she'd gotten into LACC by that time. So it can happen. And Sociology and Speech are done now. If I don't get in for the Fall, I'm taking U.S. History and Nutrition to get them out of the way. Still, maybe I'll see you there! Keep your fingers crossed and work hard so I see you in the Spring, if not the Fall!
