Does anyone know or know someone familiar with the LMC program itself? Is all the classroom work done at the Pittsburg site (well possibly online next semester, but what is the norm)? At what facilities are the clinicals done? Any general information would be appreciated too. Thanks!

If you look at the registered nursing handbook, you can find a little more info. But yes all classroom work is done at the Pittsburg Campus, which is typically Tuesdays and Wednesday. Lab work is also usually done there. The clinal sites vary from different hospitals from Antioch, Walnut Creek, to Oakland and I think even at times you may go as far as SF. It all depends on where they have room at which hospitals. This is the information I got at the nursing seminar I recently went to last September at LMC. But yes majority of your questions I think can be answered from the nursing handbook.

Oh thank you for your response. Let keep in touch. If you receive your letter, please share with us. I will do it too. WOW!!, your TEAS score is competitive. I am review the TEAS test now. I did not take it because they say don't take it until they say so, then now the CoVid situation, I don't know how it will be.

Hi @Tngo8! I just received the LVN to RN applicant status letter ?

Hi Scorpiodez, Thank you very much for your update! I forgot to tell you that I received it yesterday too. Now, we will wait for the second phase. Please let us know when you receive a letter for the second phase. I hope we both will be in the second phase ?

I did not apply to Contra Costa. I didn't have the medical dosage calculation course pre-req to apply.

Nothing on my end either. Last year, the applicants heard back around this time (Memorial Day). Hopefully, we all hear back soon.

Hopefully as we slowly start to open up county by county we will hear back. I'm guessing they want to be able to notify us of phase 2 when they can give a definite timeline for TEAS.

good luck everyone, I have been having alot of "is today the day?" feelings about notifications..I hope the wait is worth it for us!

I think we find out on Monday, check your emails Monday and also look on the LMC website for the list of student ID numbers. There will 32 conditionally accepted and about 50 alternates. All will be invited to participate in phase two of the application process which is taking the TEAS test or submitting your scores if already taken. The TEAS test will be administered one week after finding out who's made it into phase 2.

On that note, Good luck to everyone!
