New RN program in So Cal!?!

Published

For anyone who might care to share any info on this please do!

I was browsing http://www.rn.ca.gov/schools/rnprograms.shtml and voila a new RN program?! Everest offers a RN program?! I'm well aware of the LVN private schools and the public schools with the waiting lists for the RN. This must be a VERY new program, but its listed as accredited. I intend to call them as I'm a LVN student right now, but I had not noticed this school on the website a few months ago. I guess I'll give them a call, my curiosity must be settled.... definitely good news for nursing students in so cal.

Specializes in Hospice / Ambulatory Clinic.

For california you start the application part here (even if you are currently employed) Fill everything out and there will be a section where it asks you if you are retraining. When you get your telephone interview you will be able to plead your case based on the retraining part. Its not a fortune that you get but better than a kick in the pants.

Yes nusring school is expensive.

i figured I didn't want to waste my time on a waiting list so if I payed the big bucks i can move on, graduate and start making bigger bucks.

It's a personal preference if you want to pay that much money for school and have student loans!

I did it and dont regret it!
