What I'm curious about, is how if there is a lottery, why it seems like no one under 80 points was accepted. Wouldn't you think that there would have had to be at least one person who by lottery was accepted with a lower score? Am I maybe understanding this wrong?

I understood it as 81 was the lowest score accepted based on merit.

Oh, I see. Wouldn't that mean then that everyone over 81 that applied was accepted? I haven't heard of anyone that had in the 80's that was denied, unless they made a mistake on their application in one way or another. Are you under the same understanding?

I was going to apply with the bridge as I had met all the requirements with the bridge course and everything, but I chickened out and applied for first semester so I can guarantee a spot and I also didn't want to start second semester and try to get in the groove of things. So as long as everything works out, I should be good to go!

I know, it makes me a bit nauseous thinking about the long wait. You're in the sweet spot 80's though so this is great! I think we've all got a really great shot.
I also applied with 83 points. Going to be a lonnng 3 months 😅

Anyone applying the 2nd time? I hope to get in this time around with 86 pts. Did anyone even get a rejection letter from last application cycle?

@Cristae143 first time applying! so no sorry don't know but you have great point this time! best of luck to you! if you don't mind me asking did you apply with less point last time? they didn't follow up with you at all ?
I applied with 76 points last time, hoping to get in by lottery, not by merit. I didn't bother following up because most people who got in had 80+ MSPAR points. Good luck everyone!
Hey guys. Has anyone else applied to Merced College? I have a question about the TEAS. I've taken it more than once. Both scores were passing but my second attempt is much higher. Do you know which attempt they want you to record on the application?
