Srjc nursing lottery 2017

Published

I applied to SRJC's nursing program for 2017. I recently got my lottery number for College of Marin, and is in the wait list for CCSF's nursing prog. Still hoping to get in the the jc's program for fall/spring 2017!

You'll have a ton of stuff to submit once you're accepted, the nutrition class won't be an issue. Watch for emailed from Donna Green. Acceptance is predicted on passing the TEAS. You can definitely start prepping for that. If you haven't taking the pharmacology classes, and they are offered over the summer, that is an excellent prep. Pharm is what EVERYONE struggles with.

Thanks! I already took my teas because I applied to other schools as well. Do you know how it works if we've already taken the TEAS?

I passed the first time and also have already taken pharmacology as well :)

You just submit your TEAS results. But you still don't get a lottery number! Lol! It just means that your acceptance isn't conditional on that. Still conditional on immunizations, paperwork, etc.

Hi! I was wondering if you had the time if you could explain the SSU transfer program You mentioned above? Did you go that route? Or do you plan to? If so, do you need to get your ADN before heading into that program?

As for the SSU transfer program- you are only eligible if you begin the ADN program in the Fall, not spring. (I am not sure the reason why, but that's how it is). All you do is apply to SSU- see if you get in and then you start courses over summer/breaks and for another two semesters once you graduate from the ADN program. No, you do not have to have your ADN first, it is a "bridge" program- bridges you from ADN to BSN CONCURRENTLY. So, it saves you time and money in the long run! If you don't get into SSU (limited spaced available) you can do University of Phoenix. They are about the same amount of money. between 11 and 13K for the BSN programs.

Thank you! I applied to SSU for Fall 2018 but didn't get in. I was super bummed but unfortunately they only take 20 something people and hundreds apply. If I get into the SRJC nursing program for Fall 2018 I will definitely look into the SSU bridge program. So, do you need to do the full two years at SRJC in their ADN program before you can bridge to SSUs BSN program? Also, are you in the SRJC ADN program right now?? If so do you mind if I ask you a few questions about that program?

No,You don't have to be in the program for 2years. As long as you're accepted into the ADN program that is all the pre req you need to get into SSU. Like I said above, you need to start SSU classes in summer and break DURING ADN program. So, no you don't have to be an ADN graduate just be enrolled in ADN program. Does that make sense ? I started in spring so I wasnt eligible to apply to SSU but I already have a bachelors degreee so will jump straight to masters.

Yes that makes sense. Thank you again!

Just to clarify, you apply to the SSU CPOST program in January of your Spring semester, but you aren't applying to SSU, you're applying though a separate site to the CPOST or CNECM (means same program) as an extension course. You don't actually apply to SSU directly till 3rd semester, It is a great program and very well respected at area hospitals.

Thank you - I was wondering that as when I applied to SSU earlier this year through NursingCAS I never saw an option for a bridge program so that makes sense. Thanks again!!!

It's not a true bridge program, it's an Accelerated BSN, and when you register on Nursing CAS for the program, it's pretty confusing. Good luck to you!
