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 ?

I'm looking at this school also for this Fall.  It would be 7 semesters for me.  Did anyone here start a club or a FB group?

ETA: I am also located in NoCal

If you’re on fb go to “we love nightingale” and “nightingale college ABSN students”

Hi everyone!

I also got my acceptance letter for August class & was wondering if anyone here has an idea on how our schedule will be like. I'm currently an LVN & from what I was told we will right away go for our clinical after few weeks...any input will be greatly appreciated.

Im in Northern California (Sacramento) and am looking at the August 2021 start date. My only concern is actually getting licensed in California.  Does anyone have any real information about this? I have been unable to talk with anyone at the board of nursing because the hold times our outragrously long and then they hang up on you. Does anyone personally know anything who graduated from this program? Or anyone who graduated and was able to get licensed in California??

Hello ,

I live in the same area as you, from what I know of the program it is accredited and California students can sit for NCLEX in California as long as requirements are met . 

This is a accredited nursing program and you will be able to sit for your NCLEX boards in California. My coworker did the ADN program and was able to sit for her boards and is licensed here in California. 

Specializes in Med-surg.

I actually was able to speak to someone from the BRN here in California because I wanted to be sure 100% before I signed up for the school and it is accredited and will be able to sit for the NCLEX here in California ? I’m also from Sacramento ?
