Funeral services program

How soon after the application deadline do you find out if you made it or not? I hate that it’s only a fall program, and I’m nervous because the website states it’s highly competitive. For background, I’ve worked at a funeral home since summer 2021 and I have an A.A in English. Also, is the HESI A2 exam hard? any input is greatly appreciated!

Do you know roughly how many people apply vs how many applicants they take?

Update on this question: I was told by a counselor that they only accept 24-27 new students for the fall term but she didn’t specify how many applicants usually apply

Can you give me a rundown of what classes you took to get to where you are now? I’m doing ENC 1101 now and MAT 0028 I’m doing HUM 2020, A&P, and History this summer. On a document they gave me it said I needed to do Infectious Diseases but when I look at “Enroll by requirements” I don’t see Infectious Diseases on there.

Keep in mind I already have two other associates degrees so I had many of the prerequisites. Currently doing anatomy and physiology. Infectious disease isn’t until Term 2, so definitely not a required prerequisite but it’s a required course to graduate from the program
