I was thinking about doing ACLS to make myself look more appealing on these applications but when I saw how much it was I decided not to haha. I think some hospitals will pay for you to get it or certify you for free if they require it so I figured I'll just wait on it.

I went ahead and got my ACLS before I graduated. I wanted to do PALS too, but I need to wait for my first paycheck. ?

I got my ACLS as well last month. It's expensive af but I just bit the bullet considering how competitive these new grad programs are, especially in the bay. I definitely think it helps bc during my Unit interview at palo alto they specifically if I had ACLS. Im a back up for that unit in case one of the other hires doesnt go thru as planned. But I think me not having my RN just yet is what didn't get me the job /: which kinda sucks cause I have it now LOL

Yes. When I replied back with the questionnaire I included it in a pdf version.
You could probably scan your paper copies with genius scan and save as a pdf.

I received a response just under 2 weeks from the application submission.

I feel you
but ik in Palo Alto that they pay for ppl's ACLS. I'm assuming Tri-Valley would do the same.I already have it because other programs require it at the time of application
