Pasadena City College LVN program

[L524]

For pcc’s LVN program is it better to complete all prerequisites? I've read that in progress work is accepted. Does this mean the CNA certification  too? I was planning to get the CNA completed before applying. If anyone can share their experiences that would greatly be appreciated ty!

It says people who completed all the class and CNA get priority admission so yes it would be ideal for you to complete all that

Can the CNA certificate be in progress? I don’t think I’ll get it done by April 1st

I guess it can....Have you seen the application yet? I don't get it they want us to have official transcripts of our schools mailed out then scan it to our computer and then upload it? so much work LOL

I emailed to ask. Yes LOL too much work. I recommend sending electronic transcripts to yourself so you can upload them then fast.

Did you guys submit your high school diploma or did you order the transcripts?

@BH Future RNI wasnt sure about it either because I want to submit my high school diploma bc its faster but I emailed them regarding to that. Do you guys know if TEAS is required for the LVN program?

 

[BH Future RN]

Yes, they are required but I believe we take the TEAS if we are selected.

I emailed them because I just took the state tests on Feb 26th I passed but I think it takes a while for the state to officially give out the license. The director of the LVN program emailed me back saying "The application must include the Certificate for CNA from the California Department of Public Health". I don't think I'll have it by April 1?

I emailed the PCC health sciences email and didn’t get a response. That’s a bummer ? I would just apply anyway with your CNA transcript from the school because it says on their site you can do that.
