LVN and RN prgram at Western Career College information???

by mg1225

I'm looking into the LVN program at Western Career college but I want to make sure it is an accredited program. They also have an RN program that you could attend once you have completed the LVN, which I'm planning on pursing. Each program is a 2 year. Has anyone atteneded and graduated from WCC and had trouble finding a job or was not able to take the state board exam? I have an orrientation on Monday and I dont want to get sucked into something that may not be worth it!!

I just graduated from WCC. I took the LVN program in 2001 and just now finished the RN. I will be taking the boards now. As far as not being able to find a job, I am ok in that area. My current job is going to hire me as an RN when I get my license. I have heard of other classmates having a difficult time finding jobs but I don't believe it is due to WCC, new grad jobs are hard to find. They are accredited. I don't know if they changed the RN program, but the program when I took it was only 9mo. It is an accelerated program. Good luck with your nursing career.
