Pasadena City College ADN Fall 2021

Published

Hello everyone! I have yet to see a forum for PCC's ADN Fall 2021 cohort, so I decided to make one since the application opens soon!

Here's the link to their point system: 

https://pasadena.edu/academics/divisions/health-sciences/nursing-programs/ADN-and-lvn-to-RN-selection-criteria.php

I'll be applying with around 80 points. I'm not sure what my chances are, but it is worth a shot. According to last year's forum, people around 82+ points got in. However, every year varies!

In this forum, I hope we can help and support one another until decision day comes out! Comment down your stats below if you'd like. Good luck!

I got an email yesterday afternoon that I am an alternate for the program and I estimated about 85 or 86 pts, I can't remember. This is the first I've heard from them. Reaaally hoping for a miracle and I can make it in?

@Fangan @No_kiddo_5982 and anyone else who got in...Congrats! I was accepted as well. For those that didn't hear yet, it's been a long road for me to get here. And your time will come too! I was on another message board for fall 2021 but missed this one. Do you know if anyone has started a facebook group for those starting in the Fall?

Yes I was with you in the waiting list last semester you remember? LOL Finally we made it in. And no I have no idea for the facebook group. You guys already purchase the background check and castle branch right?

What is the castle branch?? I got the confirmation email of sending the intent form and student contact information, but didn’t get any further direction after that.

Thank you!! I checked the acceptance packet email today ?

I received an email yesterday saying that I’m an alternate, so fingers crossed!! Congrats to those who got it! 
Also does anyone know how many alternates there are? Just curious since they don’t give our specific spot on the alternate list

You are welcome, make sure to gather all your health info and book appointments with the school health center asap since you need to upload it and it needed to get cleared! It wilL take several weeks!
