Hello everyone,

I was unable to attend the info session, but I was wondering if they mentioned if they would put the reason for denial in their emails?

I applied last year and got denied...but never found out why...I'm thinking I'll probably get denied again this year, but would like to know why so I can fix the problem...

Thank you.

Hello,

I didn't attend any of the info sessions either so I can't say for sure but I think I read somewhere that you can ask them how many points you had in your application (like maybe some people miscalculate and think they have more points than they do). Since acceptance is based on multipoint criteria I think the main reason for not getting in would be just not having enough points to reach the cut off that year (which seems to change yearly). Also I believe more than one science class repeat will get you disqualified as well and prior to this year sciences had to have been completed in a certain time frame so that could be another reason ...

if you don't get in this year maybe just send an email and ask to see that info they can give to help out next application cycle.

How many points did you apply with this year ? (If you don't mind me asking )

best of luck!

Hi everyone, I did reach out. They said first week of December we will get our notifications. It's such a long wait till then! Wish you all the best of luck.

Thank you for letting us know. That is a long wait! Oh well, I will keep trying to distract myself!

Hi! I did applied for the LVN to RN program at City as well. I keep on checking my emails and application as well. Yup, they said first of December. I think my points will be around 80-85. Goodluck to everyone!! Finger's crossed.

I had also reached out and of course they said the same, around the first week of December. They said that they were waiting on finding out about faculty and clinical sites to see how many could be accepted. I also asked about the number of applicants this year and she said about 60 , she had told me previously that they usually get about 30 for the LVN-RN, so I imagine the change in the multi point criteria and the change in the time frame in which sciences courses had been taken made a lot more people eligible.

At this point I am trying to scale back my email checking and just going to assume we won't know til mid December ?

Hi All,

Has anyone heard anything? -- I noticed that on the generic ADN post , as of yesterday someone had emailed the school because they had not heard anything and they were told that the denials/ acceptances would no longer be sent out this week and it would be closer to the end of the semester(which is Dec 16th). I am wondering if this is just for generic ADN, since their application period was a month after ours or if this is for LVN-RN as well.

As of now the website still says the first week in December...

Hi! I saw that too. I don't know any more information, only that LVN-RN applicants are supposed to find out first.
