Wanted to start a thread since no one hasn't done so yet! This is my first time applying and a bit nervous. 😬

hopefully we will receive email by end of day or next week 🙏 I got accepted to Mtsac, but pcc is closer to my house

Ooo congrats on Mt Sac!! Maybe they arent sending out all the acceptances all at once. You guys got me feeling weird for having my acceptance, almost like they made a mistake haha. Also where else did you apply to and get replies from?

wow that's great. I would pick gcc since it's the closest one to my house. It's 6mins from my house. My husband graduated from pcc 4 5 years ago. He said their program is good too. Gcc will be my first choice LOL

GCC hasn't sent decision, but they asked me to send TEAS score. I see, so you value distance, which makes perfect sense... Elac was my first choice, as I took all my prereqs there and there's a sense of 'home' and familiarity, but I am a bit wary due to the rumors of the program. (Which isn't really bad or anything, but still influencing my decision). PCC I'm afraid that its just the cream of the crop, the best of the best, and its going to be so competitive and hard. What do you think about this analysis? haha

I see, I mean that makes a lot of sense, as passing the NCLEX is the end goal for all nursing students. Are you going to go PCC over MT SAC and ELAC then? Or are you still waiting for GCC and SMC and then making a decision?
