It's if you're licensed in the healthcare field. So if you are an MA, PA, CPT, LVN, Counselor, etc. Judy said if it doesn't apply then skip. If you put this on your application then you need to upload your license.

That would be cool. I could set one up this weekend and let ya'll know. Someone also mentioned discord but I figure that makes more sense once school actually starts.

So I had made an appointment as well for like July 1st but June 19th I had an appointment at Kaiser so I figured I would just do a walk-in for Labcorp, since it is basically across the street from the SF Divisadero Kaiser. It was pretty busy but I did not wait longer than 30 minutes. I went around 10am I think? I went on June 19th (Thursday) and got my results June 23rd (Monday) around noon.

I wanted to purchase it but the nursing packet said Edition 5 of the textbook with Navigate 2 premier access but it seems like only Navigate premier access is available and with the most recent version of the textbook (6th). Could someone clarify?

Hey yall, Since our drug test needs to be done with LabCorp, just be aware that they aren't super quick. I got mine done this past Thursday and still awaiting results. It was a holiday weekend and the SF location may lag but just a heads up. I got my titers done the same day at Kaiser and all except 1 have already come back so...I'd advise not waiting until the last minute to do the drug test!

I got in as well!

Anyone nervous about the waitlist confirmation tomorrow? Also, from the sign in sheets and from what a different source told me, a lot of accepted people didn't show up for the mandatory meeting? It looks like there were about 64 people at the mandatory meeting! Good-luck everyone!

Hey there! I am on the waitlist I am really excited for tomorrow too. Is there a way to get added to the breakout room? Thanks !!

Hello! I made the waitlist as well, I'm excited but also trying not to get my hopes up haha. I hope to see you all at the mandatory meeting!

I'd assume from all the people who've said they've been accepted and their specs that if any of the two categories were chosen it'd be based off Merritt not Lottery. Being bilingual, CNA/MA, decent GPA, decent to high TEAS - these would all earn you a lot of points because CNAs/MAs also have a lot of hours which gives even more points. They very well could've chosen people from both categories also though. We are only seeing a partial population of people that applied on here so not everyone who got in is on allnurses. Getting in isn't the end all be all and if nursing school means that much to you guys I'd highly suggest looking out of state their program cost are very cheap and it wouldn't take very long. Even SoCal has more programs than the Bay Area. I'm not sure how hard it is to get into Sac but maybe even there. I have my Bachelor degree and always wanted to work in medical as a doctor or nurse but nothing wrong with reevaluating your goals. It doesn't mean they'll change but look at the bright side. Sometimes I see the mental stress and family sacrifice nurses and doctors make. They are more likely to be on the frontline of major health crisis and they're pretty burnt out by doctors, the hospital directors, the system and patients. After you reevaluate, if you still want it then be patient and find more ways to make it happen. Apply to tons of schools everywhere and you never know where life will take you! Good luck to everyone in getting in and their journey.

That's what I was thinking as well. It's a waiting game! Can't drive yourself nuts thinking about it, everything is in their hands at this point.

I actually did apply to an ME-MSN at USF but my bachelors isn't in Nursing. I live in SF and just thought the CC route was better. I also applied to San Mateo and Marin.

I have not. I would like to get in for Spring but if I don't it isn't the end all be all! Also it does seem like the acceptances went out a bit earlier this year which is kind of nice instead of the last minute.

No one knows but the school! I think they actually start sending many more acceptances and denials in May. I say just wait and don't stress yourself trying to figure out if you got in or not.

I applied as well! I love your confidence. I was actually hoping for Spring since I have a pretty good job and could stand to save some money first. I applied with a 81% TEAS (it has been awhile since I have taking my prereq classes). My undergraduate GPA was not super high but I have been taking classes at CCSF post undergrad and have a 3.67. I just finished phlebotomy training but wasn't licensed prior to turning in my application so I won't get points for that but oh well! I know it is 50% lottery system and 50% merit based. I think they notify people of their acceptance/denial/waitlist around May. Good luck and I hope you get in!
