CNI College - ADN Application Process

Published

Well, I recently went through the application process and figured I'd share w/you all!

Here's what to expect, not necessarily in this order except the interview which is the last step.

Pass TEAS exam

Meet w/admissions rep & receive application packet

Submit HS & college transcripts

Background check (online) $40

Physical & drug test $90

Submit application packet + app fee $100

Complete FAFSA

Meet w/Financial Aid

Interview with Dean/DON

You'll be notified 1-2 weeks before start of program whether or not you've been accepted - yes, short notice.

Orientation the following week.

Program starts a week later.

If you want to transfer classes they'll have you filll out a paper w/the college name, course name and number, and grade you received (cannot submit if C+ or lower). They'll review and will accept if it's comparable to the class that's part of the ADN program curriculum. Yes, they accepted my transfers.

Simple & painless. Don't worry about the interview; they just want to meet you, talk about the program and they'll want to know why you want to be an RN. :)

Best of luck!!

I have a question, what website did you use to submit your background check with the school? Did you do it yourself? Also, are you starting in MAY 2019?? Do they still have space available for May?? Is it hard or competitive to get into & is there a waiting list??

I started last year. There is no waitlist. It is competitive. But if you don't get in the first try, try again. You'll eventually get in.

OMG that’s the worse ! Within 1 year ?! That’s worse than the 7yr mark itself!!! How’s the teachers ? And the schedule ? I’ll be relocating from Santa Barbara if I decide to try to get in this school. Just want to make sure the teachers are great also and helpful
