Nightingale College 2021

Published

Hello everyone ! 
I’m so excited that I’ve found this program ! I live in California where all nursing schools are impacted, to find a program like this is a miracle .  I am finishing up the enrollment process now . I’ve notice that there are not many posts on the site for the school . Has anyone went to the program or planning to go ? 

Has anyone from California graduated from Nightingale and tried to take the NCLEX in CA? I'm curious if anyone had any problems with this school being out of state. I'm thinking of starting this fall but want to make sure everything lines up with what the school is saying.

It's $$$ the BSN program I looked into into Pennsylvania would be total whooping cost 75,000 just into that is everything. Personally, I would look into another school because it's so expensive or look for scholarships to cut down cost. And that is with or without the pell grant of 75,000

Hello,

I’ve worked with multiple California RN’s that went to the school and took the NCLEX , that’s how I found out about the program . As long as a school has the correct accreditation and meets Microbiology and communication requirements (California is one of the few states that require those ) it is eligible to take the NCLEX here .there are plenty of groups on facebook you can join that’s full of California students , a great place to find out more info from current students like myself and graduates of the program .

Hello,

I am looking into this school and I am based in Southern California.

Has anyone started their clinical rotations for this program? If so, can you explain how the process is?

How long is clinical and how often will you need to travel for? I hear that some people are able to work and attend this program, but if they are able to work, how can that be possible if you have to leave to another state to complete your clinicals?

Sorry for all the questions. Thanks again!

From what I was told,  you go to clinical's for 1-2 weeks each semester. They give you your assignment at the beginning of the semester so you have time to plan. If you have facebook there is a group for California students. You can ask questions and get advice. You can also meet people in your area that are going to the school.

It’s only for the entrance exam and for the two HESI exams that you can test out of if you are an LVN. In class exams are proctored through honorlock. You are recorded and are on camera while taking the exams.
