I GOT IN!!!!!! The nursing director called me this evening and extended the offer!! I have to go in tomorrow to get fingerprinted and tested!! I'm so grateful & happy!!! I'm guessing a few people might of turned down the offer and I was just lucky enough to get thier spot!!!!

Hey hnguyen509...look at the bright side...you will have friends working in hospitals that will be able to get you a job!! It's tough to get into to nursing school BUT it's more difficult to get a job after! So don't lose hope!!! I know it's easier said than done...maybe GCC hasn't sent out the alternate mail yet?

I know the feeling ...I hoped maybe since I usually have issues regarding my mail that maybe I just didn't recieve it YET...but nothing today either. So the rejected feeling SUX BUT...it just means that this wasn't the school for me!!! Keep your head up Nancymard...we will get in!!!!

Congrats!!!! Even though you are giving up the spot...=) I haven't recieved anything yet...did you get an email or actual letter in the mail?

yeah I also think having experience helps! I just recently got my CNA license and started working as a Home Health Aide, however I wasn't able to add it to my GCC app b/c I wasn't finished with the course. So if I don't get selected this time I know the experience I gain in the next few months will be helpful for next time I submit apps. Wow 2 years @ Mt. Sac waiting...I was trying to apply and they weren't even accepting apps. You might wanna try Citrus, Rio Hondo, and Pasadena City College too. Well hopefully they will give an answer soon...they have all the info they need now to "RANDOMLY" select candidates...lol....good luck to you 2!!! =)

I didn't do as well as I hoped, 80% on my end. Do you know how long it takes for the ATI website to post the score to see what the good/bad areas were? Yeah they say "randomly selected" but who really knows...hopefully we will hear something within a week or 2?!! I heard back from COD and I wasn't "randomly selected" for that school...hahahha...so if nothing here I will have to apply to many more schools for next semester. Did you apply anywhere else?

I received an email stating I was not selected in the random drawing. Good Luck to all who got in!!! =)

No I'm definetely not ready but I will be studying all day everyday until 11/18. I have heard that the 2 online tests are very helpful in terms of letting you know ur strong/ weak areas and just basically preparing u. I have browsed the Teas thread and it seems that the math, english, & grammar are pretty similar to the book...however the science part is another story...lol. I applied at COC but wasn't able to make the TEAS due to an emergency, still waiting to hear from COD, and well GCC. Good Luck!

I scheduled mine for 11/18/11. I want 2 have as much study time as possible!!! Do you have the TEAS book? Any study tactics?

Me too...let the studying begin!! Good Luck to all as well!! =)

Nothing on my end...give it another week or so!

Good Luck!!! =)

Oh ok...good to know. Post if you hear anything and I will do the same! =)

Anybody apply at COD for Spring 12?? It states on thier website they will have letter out by end of October...are these the provisional acceptance letters or the final? The website states they will invite you to sit for the TEAS if you are provisionally accepted...did they already do that??

Just an update: I received an email today stating that I have qualified to take the ATI TEAS and they have scheduled me for the end of the month. This is definetely 1 step in the right direction!!! Now I have to start studying so I can get a great score!!!
