Hi guys, got a call from Santa Ana the other day and I'm in their nursing program! I'm so excited :) excited to meet you all!

Hi guys! Was just informed the other day that I was accepted to Santa Ana College, so I gave up my spot and called them yesterday so hopefully anyone on the alternates list gets it! Good luck all :)

Not yet, gonna buy the books when I turn in my packet!

I forgot too... Thanks for reminding me haha. It is but it'll all be worth it. Just think, it's much cheaper than private school :)

Hi melowetta, If you pre-order, you would have to go to the school to pay. I didn't, because I live almost an hour away. But they said they'd have enough for each student so they shouldn't run out!

Hi all, I just called the bookstore and they said the books were supposed to come in today, but have not. If they come Monday, they will call everyone who pre-ordered and ask them to pick the books up before 1pm because they close then. Otherwise, they resume on the 2nd of January so hopefully the books will be there then!

Thanks! That's very, very helpful.

Thanks!!! That was very helpful! Sorry for all the questions, but where are your clinicals? Sorry if you mentioned this already!

ShyeoftheTiger, any advice before starting nursing school? :)

Also, jeli42, any advice before starting the program? :)

They called and emailed! I was unable to answer my phone at the time so maybe that's why they emailed. I also took the teas about a year ago and turned in those results. I think they're still going through their list of ppl, I'm actually #5 on the provisional list so they said I had a great chance of moving up to being actually accepted, so your time will come as more and more people decline!

I'm racking my brain trying to decide! I don't know if this is common, but I want to go to each orientation to see with which school I find the best connection! I'm used to driving about 30-45 min, so Rio Hondo would be closer, but the thing is the program, aside from the ADN 151 class starts in fall. With Pasadena, I start in January! I've been looking forward to nursing all my life and I can't wait to get started! I'd start sooner and end faster. So that's a huge plus for me. Also, if I went to PCC, I'd most likely love with family members near Azusa, making the drive just about 20 min? As of right now I'm an hour away, near CSUF, so that drive would be a nightmare daily. I'm somewhat leaning towards PCC, but I'm very open to any suggestions!!

Eek, I was accepted provisionally so hopefully I get into the Spring class!

Pb&j711773 Hey, I got into Rio Hondo! Have you heard anything back?? Now I'm not sure what school to choose D:

Hi beckyade, I applied for the generic ADN. Hope that helps!
