Mira Costa/ Palomar Fall 2016 Cohort

Published

Hello everyone!!

I am creating this thread to connect with others in the same boat as I. I recently applied to Mira Costa and Palomar College. My experience with Mira Costa was completely different from Palomar. The representative at Mira Costa opened my application in front of me. To make sure all was there😊. Im already so nervous and this is just day 1 of waiting for 2 months. Feel free to share your experience, points, worries, advice(from students already accepted in the RN program)

Good luck to us all 😄

thank you, I hope you hear something soon:)

I'm also an alternate, waiting to hear back. Hoping to get more info at the meeting on Monday. Does anyone know if the alternates who don't get in get an automatic spot for Spring? I've noticed the other programs do that...

Hey olliebollie,

I applied to both as well for spring 2017. I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing your experiences with Mira Costa.. I am not sure which of the two would be my first choice..

Thanks.

Hi Jameee,

From what I took away from people I asked, MCC is more lax than Palomar, but both are highly regarded programs. For me, I wanted a more lax atmosphere and that's why I went with MCC. So far after 3 weeks I really like the program. I think the rest of my cohort would agree they made a great choice. The teachers are highly skilled nurses and are always willing to help. I would not stress too much about what program to attend; you'll have enough to stress about while in the program. What I realized is, that a nursing program is a nursing program and you'll get out of it what you put in! Study ALOT. Work as least as possible. The material isn't hard to learn, just VERY time consuming. Best of luck! Stay positive. All will fall into place. :)

Awesome Ollie,

I didn't initially see your reply.

Thank you for your insight,

Now I am just waiting to find out if I have been accepted to either program. (fingers crossed)

Hey ollie! I got accepted to both... I am leaning towards Mira Costa.. I was wondering if you could tell me what the schedule is like so far.. And if you know where the clinicals are at?

Hi Jmeee,

If you started one of the programs this semester would you mind sharing your experience? I applied to both Palomar and MiraCosta for fall 2017. I have 86 points for MiraCosta and 83/84 for Palomar. I'm leaning towards MiraCosta if I get acceptance but would love to hear more about either program from anyone who may still be following this thread :)

Thanks!

I also created another thread for Palomar/MiraCosta applicants for Fall 2017. If you're like me, you've been stalking all of the old threads!:up: Haha
