so you'll be in class 3-4 days per week for the first semester. for the first 8 weeks, you're in lecture Monday & Wednesday and you'll have lab either Tuesday and Wednesday or Thursday and Friday. 

then, for the second 8 weeks, you'll start clinical and be in lecture Monday and Wednesday still and you'll have a 12-hour clinical on either Tuesday or Friday (instead of going to lab 2 days a week)

Accepted! I believe I had 61/75 points on their criteria.

How long do they give you to decide whether or not you want to accept the spot?

Hi there,

I have been accepted to LAHC for the next semester. Does anyone know about the clinical rotation sites and the difficulty of the program? I've heard that the LAHC program is the hardest because their expectations are high, and I'm a bit worried.

I took some of their courses for bridge. And they do have high expectations but they have amazing pass rate and are ranked one of the best nursing schools in ca. you will be prepared and well rounded nurse there!

I'm a current 1st semester student & the expectations are very high, but they make you so much more prepared than other schools. 1st semester clinical rotation sites are Kaiser South Bay & Providence San Pedro. For the rest of the semesters it's a mix of Torrance Memorial, Providence, and Harbor UCLA.

since you have all Summer to prepare, you'll be in good shape! you can read the material in advance to get ahead.

Thank you! Great to know you are doing well in your first semester. I appreciate the helpful information you shared. If you don't mind, could you send me a photo of the covers of your first-semester course books? [email protected]
