Riverside City College: Spring 2017

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Greetings all future RN students. I just wanted to start a thread for any potential applicants who will be applying to riverside city college RN program this September for Spring 2017. Let's all get together on this thread and share experiences as well as answer questions. I know the application period is 6 months away, but it will be here before you know it! :yes:

I would pick the program that has clinicals at places you potentially want to work. RCC has a higher pass rate than Mt. Sac, so keep that in mind as well.

Hey what kind of stethoscope were you required to purchase for the program? I know some go for the expensive Littman, but I wanted to know if the cheap one is okay?

Yes, the pass rate is a huge factor the deserves great consideration. Thanks.

Hi guys, like a few people here, I applied to more than one program, and I'm so happy that I got accepted to RCC. I was also accepted to Mt. Sac. They're both great programs and I need to make a decision. If you had to chose between the two, and distance wasn't a factor, which would you chose? I started another thread, but didn't get any replies. I apologize if this is off topic here.

The schedule sounds pretty good at Mt. Sac. My decision would be based on which is closer, has a better schedule, and is cheaper if they are both good schools. Hope that helps and good luck with your decision.

I think I'm going with Mt. Sac. RCC is closer, but I have kids and having Thurs. and Fri. off is a better schedule for me. Good luck you guys! I wish all of us success! :)
