Community College of Rhode Island - Nursing Program: Spring 2014 @ Newport Campus

U.S.A. Rhode Island

Published

I was looking to see who else applied for the nursing program at the Newport Campus for Spring of 2014?

I don't know if I'm jumping the gun or anything but I just Googled "CCRI + Vaccinations" & printed out some vaccination checklist! I'm already scheduled to have my titers / vaccines done!

There are many requirements and another one is to take the CPR course at CCRI. Further make sure you always check your health records on their site because it will alert you to any problems with vacs, certs, etc. DO NOT assume they have records or that they will get them from anywhere else but you......that would be a big mistake. Make sure you get everything started at a time where they can be accomplished easily prior to clinical. Hep shots are a problem because it takes months to do the whole series of shots. They make no exceptions whatsoever...not even on rounding scores i.e. if you miss the required 75 to pass by 1/100th you will still fail.....no exceptions.

Newport is very difficult to get accepted to the program because there a far fewer seats available. Newport is absolutely the most challenging to get into of all the other campuses. If you think you may not make it then apply to Warwick. In any case the clinical locations will be in Warwick or Providence so travel considerations don't really make much difference between all of them.
