Palomar College - Fall 2025 Nursing Application

Updated:   Published

What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing their experiences with receiving responses from a school regarding their application status for a nursing program. Some members have received acceptance emails, while others are still waiting or have received rejection emails. There is also discussion about orientation dates, points-based selection, and being placed on standby lists.

Just wanted to make a thread for fellow applicants at Palomar College Nursing Program for the Fall 2025 semester. I applied, it's my first time applying. I think if they count all my points I will be at 89 points. I applied at Mira Costa as well, but as many of you know, the lottery system is a complete gamble. 

So far, I have received an email that my application had been accepted and the email specified that they hope to be issuing decisions by mid-April to may. 

Good luck to you all.

Hi im not sure exactly but my email said, "If a-random-selected student declines admission to the program, it will be offered to a random-selected student on the standby list. Applicants on standby will be ordered based on their applicant pool (points or on the random list).

did anyone here applied to CSUSM? I applied and got a notification that I am number 6 on the waitlist... I don't know if that's good or bad LOL, and OMG I was panicking because in order to remain on the waitlist I have to accept my admission to my alternative major which I initially declined because I didn't know until I checked my student portal and got that notification!! They only sent me an email stating that I got into my alternative major which I instantly assumed that I did not get into the nursing program at all so this morning I had to call admission and explain my situation and thank goodness they were able to reactivate my admission to my alternative major so I guess now I just have to wait and see if I get off the waitlist 😞 and I haven't heard anything from palomar. Palomar is the only school I am waiting to heard back from!! I am soooo curious on how they do their lottery/point system selection? 

Hey there. My coworker got into CSUSM. She said she was not on the waitlist so isn't too sure about that process but that they gave them a time for when to accept their admission, she accepted hers already but knows of two who are going elsewhere. I hope you get in!

I'm sorry to hear that. I feel like the great thing about these ADN programs is that they have two application cycles per year. I hope you get in for the Spring semester! 🙏  how many points did you get?

Keep applying, this is my 3rd time applying. I think when u apply next time, there's a box on the top asking if this a reapply. I think you would have better luck next time. Tbh im not even sure if I will be accepted from the waitlist.
