Thank you so much for researching and listing the good and bad! I am going to consider the points you made. Right now, one of my classmates who got accepted to Rio Hondo last cycle told me that the program is pretty hard, and he is barely passing. He passed all his science pre-reqs with As. Another friend of mine who is studying in Mt Sac right now has no issues so far. 

I got both Rio and MT.SAC offer. I chose Mt.SAC, even though RHC is only 10 minutes away from me, Mt. Sac is 25 minutes away. I took all my pre-rec at MT.sac, but I never went to RHC. So I drove to  RHC the day I got my offer, and I felt I did the right thing. I stay at RHC for one hour, went to the science building, student center, admin building, then find out I prefer MT.SAC campus vibe. 

Regarding the passing rate, considering the following things: COVID, if the school kick out lots of student on purpose ( so the passing rate is kept high), total number of students that take the NCLEX each year ( for public school, the more students they can admit each year, means the better the school, cause they have enough funds/recourses/professors).

Another thing is Rio Hondo has a bridge program to physical college for BSN degree, and mt sac is online school for BSN. I want to know if a BSN degree from online school would impact my chances to get in to master degree in nursing later on, or it doesn't matter since a degree is a degree.

I was an alternate during last cycle and went to the orientation. I believe it is after the orientation you register for classes, but they let u know during the orientation.
