So.. I have heard not too much information on this school... I have heard there is no wait list.. has anyone been here, went and talked to councilors, or know any information on this school?
tuition, time u will be able to get in, pre reqs, etc?
Thanks!!
Was it easy to get in? Is it true, once you have all your pre reqs done and pass the tease you are in?----> YES.How long did you have to wait to get in? ----> 1 semester
Where are you doing your clinicals ---> CALIFORNIA MEDICAL CENTER HOSPITAL, OLYMPIA HOSP, EXODUS-USC, WHITE MEMORIAL HOSP...
How much is tuition?-->> I GOT FEE WAIVER, SO IDK, ABOUT 500$ PER SEMESTER
How are the teachers... and if you could go back would go to LATTC? ---> YES, I WOULD! THEY ARE HARD, BUT THEY WANT THEIR STUDENTS TO BE SUCCESSFUL. 1st SEMESTER STUDENTS GET KICKED OUT A LOT FOR VARIOUS REASONS.
EVERYTHING IS NEW @ LATTC NURSING DEPARTMENT (BUILDING, CLASSROOM, SIMULATION LAB, COMPUTER LAB, TEACHERS)
SINCE THEY CHANGED MOST OF THE PREVIOUS STAFFS (PROFESSORS, NURSING DIRECTOR ...) THE NLCEX PASSING RATE IS KINDA HIGH NOW. (Board of Registered Nursing - NCLEX Pass Rates)
NURSING STUDENTS @ LATTC USUALLY TRANSFERRED TO CSU (CSUF, CSUDH, CSULA, WESTERN UNIVERSITY...) AFTER GRADUATING TO COMPLETE RN-BSN DEGREE
Buspar, the info you've provided about LATTC has been so helpful! Ty! You mentioned that the clinical sites include exodus-USC... is that LAC+USC?

I Would only use WCU as an absolute last resort.....it is insane to pay that much for a BSN especially now when new grad RN's can't even find a job no matter if you have ADN or BSN.
Did your counselor send you to the nursing dept. and did you fill out a application ? if so then you are already in the program for fall all you are waiting for is the formal acceptance letter., you might get into spring 2015 if the people who applied before you give up their spots, very good chance of this, LATTC is contonous enrollment..This was my experience.
First semester there are no sat or sunday classes , not sure where your intern is getting that info from? . I am currently going into second semester and from what i have heard there are only 1 i believe sat classes in the period of 2 months for second semester.
If you are giving up 40,000 a year does this mean you will be quitting your job ? I haven't done the math for LATTC cost but for the whole year i have been attending it has cost me less than 2500 for every thing so far(tuition, books, uniforms ..etc) ...
My friend attended WCU and the schedule is even more intensive....she was not able to work and go to school at the same time ....you have to remember that WCU is accelerated program which takes up a lot more time.
