Share Your Nursing School Admissions Outcome

Before you start

What we ask: The start term you applied for, which California RN programs you applied to and what happened at each, plus optional ranges for your GPA, TEAS score, past attempts, healthcare experience and wait time.
What we don’t ask: Your name, email, exact scores or dates, age, or anything about your health. There are no free-text boxes.
Why: To publish real admissions odds by program type and region, and add to the public record on how hard it is to get a seat.
Only totals are shown: Results are published as rounded percentages, once a month. Any group with fewer than 10 people is hidden.
Never sold: We don’t sell survey answers or share them for advertising, and we don’t try to work out who answered.
Good to know: Because answers are anonymous, we can’t find or delete yours later. You can skip any optional question.

About your application

Ranges only. Skip anything you’d rather not share.

Roughly what was your prerequisite or science GPA, as the programs calculated it? Optional

A range is enough. If programs used different GPAs, use the one most of them asked for.

What was your best ATI TEAS overall score? Optional

Many California community colleges use 62% as a cutoff, so the ranges start there.

Before this cycle, how many times had you applied to nursing programs? Optional

This was my first timeOnce beforeTwice beforeThree or more times

Did you have paid or volunteer healthcare experience when you applied? Optional

YesNo

Waiting and decisions

If you were on a waitlist or in a lottery, how long have you waited for a seat in total? Optional

Count from your first application to a seat offer, or until now if you’re still waiting.

Did you accept a seat? Optional

Submitting sends only the choices above. No name, email or IP address is stored with them.

Thank you. Your answers help future applicants see their real odds at schools like yours.

No one else publishes this. Once enough people answer, future applicants will be able to see:

How often applicants with similar GPA and TEAS ranges got in
Which programs are realistic and which are long shots in each region
How long waitlists and lotteries actually take
Whether reapplying or healthcare experience improved applicants' chances

Your answers were saved without your name, email or IP address. They’ll be counted in the next monthly update of California nursing admissions odds. A group appears there once at least 10 people have answered.

Want to know when results for your program type are published? Optional

This is a separate step. Your email goes only to our newsletter list, The SEAPHE Brief, and is not stored with your survey answers, so the two can’t be matched.
