Need advice about Chaffey College!!!!!!

I don't know very much about the program. I'm assuming you've already gone to the school's website. I believe there is a wait list for both programs. I had a friend who got her LVN at a private school (she already had all the prereqs for the RN program though, and I think all A's) She got into the RN program right away as soon as she got her LVN license.

The LVN program has applications once a year. This time around, there were 80 on the list. They literally randomly pull 40 names out of a hat with 10 alternates. It's just by matter of luck. The best counselor to see is Ms. Star or Starbuck. I can't remember the last name. It's one of the two. She counsels students who are interested in the nursing dept. Don't see anybody else. I have experienced other counselors of no help.
I believe they pick the same amount for the RN as well due to limited space available at the campus. However, in 2009 they will be expanding the LVN class and they will be accepting applications twice a year with double the size of students. I hope I have answered any questions.

Citrus College in Glendora also has an LVN program with no waiting list. You only need to qualify by being the top 40 students in an intro class. I graduated in July '07, am working and continuing with my pre-reqs for the RN. Citrus has just started their RN program this year and I will be ready to start in '08. I also met with the coordinator at Chaffey. Once my pre-reqs are done I can apply by taking one class. They told me that so far no one has been turned away. They also start their programs twice a year now which obviously increases your chances of getting in. They have a great reputation for their RN program.

Good luck.

The Counselor's name is Susan Starr...she is like a road runner on Monster 24/7 lol! The other counselor is a guy but i can't remember his name off the top of my head...i can picture his face though! lol...

Kinda late of a response to this question i know...hope it helps someone!
