   gdoubleu replied to Cuddleswithpuddles's topic in California

   I checked the status of my application on the website and it says applicant review...I don't know whether that is a good thing or a bad thing and I haven't received any news or email regarding an interview. Hoping I still get something from them! Any...

   gdoubleu replied to mireillegrale's topic in California

   Start dates or those info sessions they have before you apply? Info sessions are I think weekly. There are three start dates a year. Around the 20th of Jan, the 15th or so of May and then after Labor day in September. I am currently in the program an...

   gdoubleu replied to mireillegrale's topic in California

   Nope, no questions since I'm already in the program :) and don't need to worry about it. I just wanted to make sure everyone one here was getting correct information on the admission process.

5. Kaplan college in San Diego RN program

   gdoubleu replied to mireillegrale's topic in California

   Yeah I would definitely double check with your rep because as recently as this past Septembers term I know of someone who was not accepted due to her urine being too dilute in the drug test results and obviously her tests were done prior to acceptanc...

   gdoubleu replied to mireillegrale's topic in California

   B217 I don't know who your rep was but you absolutely have to do the background screen and drug test prior to admission. That is one if the criteria they use in acceptance. Also I've never heard of their early acceptance period. I'm currently in the ...

   gdoubleu replied to marineswife0809's topic in California

   An LVN is a vocational program not a degree program, so an LVN program at any school would not have credits which you can use to obtain a degree in the future. From what I've heard it is very difficult to find jobs as an LVN. My friend got her LVN li...

   gdoubleu replied to marineswife0809's topic in California

   Honestly, above all, Kaplan is a for-profit school and a lot of the admissions reps are skeezy and will tell you anything. The admissions dept really has no say on acceptance into the program since selection is done by the director of nursing, they c...

   The RN program is only offered at the San Diego campus. I'm currently in my second semester there. The admissions process is based on a point system so you do not necessarily need 6 months medical experience, but the admissions reps will definitely ...

10. Nursing School and Child Care

    gdoubleu replied to trae55's topic in General Students

    Maybe look for a flexible daycare center in someones home. This is my first semester so my schedule isn't too crazy and I guess I'm lucky (or unlucky depending on how you look at it) to have my clinical on a Saturday in the evening so my husband is a...

11. Questions about Kaplan?

    gdoubleu replied to DoveBunni's topic in California

    Actually, let me clarify my bit on the pre-reqs. There are actually no pre-reqs to get into Kaplans nursing program. The classes I listed are required to go on to your core nursing classes. If you haven't taken any pre-reqs you can take them there. Y...

    They do collect $20 when they enroll you but it is refundable if you are not accepted. The pre-reqs are English Composition, Sociology, Psych, College Algebra, Anatomy and Physiology. If you've taken a higher Math or Psych or anything they may credit...

    Just a clarification to liberty bells post...spouses are not entitled to BAH while the service member is still on active duty. Don't want to get anyone's hopes up with that one.

    As far as vocational schools offering an RN program, look up Unitek in Fremont. I've been hearing a lot about it recently and I looked and it us recognized by the CA BRN. They have a 2 step ADN Program where it looks like they make you go through the...
