Golden West Nursing Spring 2024 (ADN)

Published

Hi all,

Congrats to all who made it to the Spring 2024 nursing program. I thought I would start a new thread here so we can connect. I know some have created FB groups in the past so maybe that's a possibility. I'll introduce myself...

I'm a 40-year-old married mother of three who is starting out this new career path. I did volunteer hours at Hoag Hospital through COPE Health Scholars. Not sure if I want to be a bedside nurse but I need to gain experience wherever I am so I'm not too picky. I am doing CNA training through Saddleback this Summer and got a job at a memory care facility as a resident assistant and they are going to train me as a med tech. So thankful to get into this program! ? I would love to hear about you all!

Hey everyone,

I was attending Rio Hondo College this most recent Summer, and had to withdraw for various reasons, but I was fortunate enough to get news that I was accepted into GWC this Spring of 2024.

Hi David, 

I actually attended the ADN program at rio hondo College a little bit a while back too! I had to withdraw also. I know Golden West has such a great reputation where the same can't be said for RHC 

 

I am taking a pharmacology class right now at Long Beach College. I will probably take nutrition in the fall or maybe some other class. 

Has anybody received any updates from the school? The pre-requisite requirements 1-3 were due on August 14th.

I haven't received anything! I'm just working on the next set of requirements in the meanwhile.

Same. Just need my physical and TB test to be compliant.

There are two approved ways to create a special place for your cohort.

One: create a facebook page. This link may be posted.

Two: Premium members may create a "club" by clicking on the Breakroom link in the yellow bar to the left of this page. Then click on "Create A New Club" in the green bar at the top of the page, and follow instructions.

References to other than these two avenues will be moved from view, to comply with the Terms of Service.

Thank you. 

As far as I know no facebook group or other has been made for our cohort. Im not really familiar with creating groups so I don't feel comfortable doing it but I wouldn't be opposed to joining if one was created.

Hey everyone, just to get it started, I made a Spring 2024 GWC ADN facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/gwcadn2024spring/

Hi Hopeful Nursing! Nice to virtually meet you. Sounds like you have a very good set up for experience before the program. All of the experience will help you in clinicals. 
 

I am also starting in the Spring 2024 cohort. I am 28 years old and it's been a long journey to get to this part. I'm very excited to be at Golden West College! I've heard so many good reviews from my coworkers who are alumni. 

Hi, How many points did you get?
