Hi,
Im a single mom and going back to school for Nursing. Im thinking of moving to CA to be closer to my parents so they can help with my kids while Im in school. They live near Victorville. Are there any good Nursing programs around that area or within an hour or so drive from there? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Victory Valley Community College is right there.

Good boards pass rate, and I believe the wait list while every other program isn't too bad, usually get in two years or less after application so I'm told.
Anywhere that you would be driving to would end up being in Riverside or San Bernardino County.
The following community colleges also have programs (but that's where you'll be driving)
Chaffey College
Riverside Community College
San Bernardino Valley College
There is also one private school:
Everest college, it is rather pricey.
If your interested in a bachelor's degree there is:
Loma Linda University
CSU San Bernardino
Thank you for your reply. That was very helpful. I had heard about Victorville Community College and that they had a two year waiting list. I was hoping to maybe get in somewhere the fall of 2010. Thanks again for your help! :wink2:

Try Antelope Valley College. I just completed their program and waited less than a year on the waiting list.
