I'm in as well. Hey guys! for those who have taken a CPR course, which specific course did you select? Online course is free (zero, nada , but the inclass course is $110. What do you guys think? I dont really know which course will be accepted except that it must be for health care professionals.

Livingsimple Congrats!!!! I knew you would have no problem getting in:)

Suka Congrats as well!!! Btw when you go on the red cross or american heart websites there should be lists of the cpr classes offered. I found that most were about $65. I still need to take it if your interested in taking it with me let me know:)

Kaiamc 8 more is not that many!!! You will get the email soon:)

Thank you! I'm super excited and just turned in all the documents they needed to maintain my place in the program. Did anyone else finish the first module we were required to do? If so, were we supposed to print any sort of proof or transcript that we finished it to include along with the other documents we had to turn in? Or was all that was required was just to sign the UCDHS Confidentiality Agreement form?

I also need to take the CPR classes and will do it after my finals next week! Also, did anyone choose a time to attend the university orientation yet?

@kaiamc I have a really good feeling that you will get in, only 8 more spots! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you as well!

Hey guys! I have a current CPR certificate that I completed in January of this year. However, it's not for health care professionals. I live in Stockton so I will have to take a class in Stockton to save me a drive. I would love to take it with someone that I know though Thanks for the invite. Can't wait to see you all at the orientation. Btw, our student coordinator is super nice and she seems like she works so hard to make it easy for us as much as possible

Livingsimple You do not need to print out a copy of the transcript. They receive your score electronically. I will be completely my CPR class during the summer also, either in Elk Grove or Sacramento. I selected June 7th as my university orientation date but I'm considering switching to July 30th.

Suka No problem! I look forward to meeting you all!!! Enjoy your summer:)

Hi everyone. I'm not sure if you've all looked at the cpr options already or not. I just did mine through red cross a few months ago but it wasn't the health care provider one, so I was not happy to pay $110 bucks and sit through a six+ hour class. I found that the BLS for healthcare providers through American heart associate is 80 bucks and only 31/2 hours. I'm in south bay so I'm not sure if that matters, but I thought I'd put it out there in case you want to save a little money and a few hours.

I'm attending the June 7th transfer orientation date if anyone else will be at that one let me know!

xaireel · May 16, 2012

i'll be on the june 15th orientation.

Stephenee · May 16, 2012

shmorgan3 I will also be at the June 7th orientation date!!! I will be taking my CPR class within the next few weeks so thanks for the heads up:) Hopefully they count the class you took!

Hello everyone!!

I am new to this thread.

I got accepted into Sac's program for this Fall. I was number 15 on the waiting list. After that, I just gave up on Sac and considered CSUEB and CSULB instead. Right when I decided to go to East Bay's program instead, I got the email saying that I got into Sac, and my decision changed. I am even surprised I got in to this program because when I look at the Stats from this thread, everyone's score was so high! Most people seemed to be in the 80s... I had only 66 points. I guess people who declined really helped!

I am a transfer student from CSU East Bay, so I will be on campus at Sac (I only live about 1hr 30min away) I am very excited to meet all of you, and terrified already of my first semester. I have already did all of the co-reqs except for Pharm so I have to take that first semester. I looked at the curriculum for the program on the website and it looks INSANE. Hopefully, I can focus and make it through. At East Bay, we are on a quarter system (10 weeks), so adjusting to the semester system as SAc will be kind of difficult.

I can't wait until orientation! But for now, I gotta get through my last quarter here (have 4 more weeks) and then get all of the requirements done.

I am looking forward to meeting all of you :)
