1 hour ago, LalaShe said:I'm in the alternate for PCC as well, was wondering also how this all works. Anyone with info or advise that has been in this position?
I believe how the alternate pool works for PCC is that you are on the waitlist based on points, that they will call the top alternates once people withdraw, I also believe as an alternate they want you to go to the orientation. Does it say to go to the orientation on your letter? In the past PCC was know for going through most of the waitlist, hopefully this is still true.
Hi Nurse hopeful7!
Yes, it does say to go to the orientation if you accept the alternate spot. This is my first year applying for nursing so I had no idea how this all works. I am optimistic and hopeful and will plan to attend the orientation. Thanks for replying! and CONGRATS on getting in!!!
