   Hello, I also received a letter that I did not get in. I applied with 75 points. I just took the teas and scored higher. Hoping 80 points gets me in next time around.

   Hi Coffeefiend, I talked to Staci and she said there's 55 spots but if you talked to the nursing director and she said there's 50 I would go based on that. Staci did say that the clinical spots are going to fall for fall applicates.

    I also have 75 points. Saddleback has a great nursing program, the instructors are really good. I've had couple of them for my nursing prerequisites. I hope I get in. Good luck!!
