Loma Linda Winter 2015

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hi all,

I have applied for the BSN program at Loma Linda university for Winter quarter 2015 and am anxiously waiting to hear back from them... anyone in the same boat?!

I can't compare LLU to any other schools. However, what I can say is that the professors and the university wants you to succeed and do well. Thus, the school is great and have academic resources to help you improve your studying skills and habits. With that said, LLU does come with a hefty price so be sure to watch out for that and make sure you have your financial stuff in order because it will come fast.

Since I have started at the school in spring of 2015, I have been able to communicate with the staff and professors with ease. Some of my peers and my self have been able to easily obtain an entry job within the hospital and or university over the summer. I am only 1 quarter in and I do not regret coming here.

The only thing that might have changed my mind is if I found a program that was shorter before applying to LLU. LLU has summer breaks which can drag onto 2.5-3 years before you finish. There are some programs out there that can be done as little as in 18months with the same benefit and degree for a far less price tag.

Wow that sounds great minus the lengthy program. I guess I'll take advantage of traveling in the summer and taking a break if I get in the program. I'm glad you don't regret coming there. It makes it easier for my decisions. Have you started clinicals yet?

Oh, how's the gym? Haha I saw that they had different sports programs. I personally love volleyball and that's one of the things I'll miss when transferring.

Krys22 Do you know if u got onto the wait list or the alternate list? TIA does anyone know if there is a difference ?

Does anyone know if the alternate list and the wait list are the same thing ?

No I did not contact them because they will contact you if a opening comes up. I was on the waitlist for Fall 2014 and NOTHING so they called me to see if I wanted to be reviewed for Winter 2015 and I said yes ! And nothing !!! Than they called and asked if I wanted to be CONSIDERED FOR Spring 2015 and I said no. So they pulled my application. I felt like they were just dragging me along . Which is super annoying because we get hopeful that were on the waiting list . But yeah I got accepted to a community college program so I saved myself a lot of money so I'm happy lol goodluck with your adventure (:

First time applying for fall and they pushed my application to winter. The school is quite pricey though.. was it difficult to get into the community college?

Do you know if you were put on the waitlist or did it say alternate list ?
