Hi,

I was thinking about attending casa loma in van nuys ca in July 2008. I tried looking on here for other posts but they are old in 2007. SO i was seeing if anyone attending now if they liked it. I got quoted 25,000 i know pricey buti hear that Pierce college offers a RN bridge and they put you near the top. SO you figure you are still saving a little money. Well anyways ty in advance

My scoop on Casa Loma is probably old news to you, since I last attended their LVN program in late 2005 at the Van Nuys campus. Back then, I paid $19,995 in tuition, so I conjecture that they have opted to raise the fees. Feel free to ask questions if you'd like more information.

What was your experience like? do you feel like you got your moneys worth and if you have furthered your education or not was it easy to get into a RN bridge program? ty again for your responce

The school's objective was to get students to pass the NCLEX, because the NCLEX pass rates determine whether the nursing program remains open and operating for business. My goal was to become licensed and working as an LVN, and that's what I got (nothing more, nothing less). You'll get out of the program exactly what you put into it.

Trade school LVN programs typically do not have regional accreditation, and Casa Loma was no exception. Credits earned at schools that are unaccredited will not transfer to an accredited RN program.
