New RN program in So Cal!?!

U.S.A. California

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.

:up::coollook:

The main College has a waiting list with over 200 people on it.

Their Compton campus does not have a waiting list. You got the grades and the requirements then you will get in.

Hi

I'm in the program at El Camino. I waited one semester and so did most of the students in my class but some got right in. I heard from the director that they no longer carry a wait list. Applications are selected by random, and they consider complete applications with GPAs greater than 2.5. They have a couple pre-reqs unique to El Camino. Anyway hope that helps.

Hi EverestRN...could you tell me how long you were on the waitlist until you got called and into the program? I have been doing my general education classes at RCC and I am fed up waiting around for classes. Will Everest accept transfer credits from a community college by any chance? This is so frustrating. Everest put me on a waiting list and they told me they will call once their is an opening.
