They said that they had 133 total applicants. I think they just keep assigning alternate status until #133, because i know someone that got alternate #69. The boot camp is January 13-16... mandatory if you accept your spot as an alternate. Good luck!
I got the email too. When I called they said that if you received the e-mail, then your points were high enough and upon passing the TEAS you would be placed in the lottery. We're halfway there!
I applied too. Someone in the health sciences office told me they have 600 applications! I thought that number was a bit high- i hope she was exaggerating.
