Denied as well maybe is my low TEAS score and no health care experience . I have 3.7 overall GPA and prereq 4.0 I just got my associates... I'm praying cypress college accepts me as an alternative. Still need to hear back from LACC

Once your AA get posted to your transcripts your chances of getting accepted would increase tell you that by experience! it's all about faith and persistence.

I got accepted as an alternate. Wondering how many alternates there are. For those who got accepted, did they give you a deadline to respond back? Thanks!

Congrats!!By any chance  Do you know the likeliness for getting accepted if offered an alternate acceptence? 

Hey! I was an alternate for Spring 2024 and got a call with my acceptance a week later or so. Once the deadline passes for students to accept/decline, that's when they'll know how many spots are available. A lot of my current classmates were also on the waitlist. So definitely don't give up hope! I'm now going into my 4th and final semester at LAHC in the fall 🙂

Hello, 

Do you have any tips for upcoming first semester students and how to succeed? I'm nervous but will hold onto hope. Thank you!

Yes! This nursing program is extremely good and prepares their students well. It's definitely not easy - but it is manageable! A lot of it comes down to time management, getting yourself organized, and staying motivated. There are also intersession classes that they hold over the Summer which will help introduce you to some of the more difficult topics. Feel free to message me anytime 🙂

Congrats on almost finishing nursing! Could you expand more about the intersession classes? Are they required to attend this Summer before beginning this coming Fall? What topics are covered? Thank you very much for your insights 😄

They will definitely talk more about it at your orientation & give you the schedule. But it's for all semesters & they have different classes for whichever semester you're in. Each class is about 2 hours long, and they start in the end of July and go throughout August. Some classes they do for the 1st semesters include dosage calculations, nursing care plans, intro to sim lab, test taking skills, oxygenation/ABGs, etc. You can choose to go to whichever classes you want and they're 100% optional, but def beneficial if you want to ease your way into 1st semester 🙂

Thank you & Congrats on almost finishing nursing school!! So if a person doesn't get called from the alternate list they stay on the waitlist for the next cohort or it just depends on availability?
