   That looks official to me. Good job!

2. California Endorsement Process

   VegasScout replied to nps07's topic in General Nursing

   You can probably get the Live Scan done at any time throughout the process. I don't know for certain, but you probably can. As for transcripts, your school MUST send them, not you because they need to be official. I would send all three nursing scho...

3. What do I do? RN, FNP, Job Seeker

   VegasScout replied to nononsense's topic in Career Support

   I have moved around a lot as well in my life. I have about 3 years experience as a psych nurse, but before then my husband was an unofficial traveling pharmacist (I had an online educator position) and we moved everywhere. Unofficial meaning he was a...

4. Low GPA

   VegasScout replied to llbean's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Sorry for the delay in responding. 1) Do you find it more stressful than other fields? I definitely don't find it more stressful. It's probably less stressful than other nursing jobs once you get used to it. In most places, you perform ver...

5. Low GPA

   VegasScout replied to llbean's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am not a scout for Roseman; I just use VegasScout as my name as I had a wonderful cat named Scout. LOL I can answer the questions for you, though. The curriculum is the same for both schools, just different campuses. Because Roseman's largest stu...

6. Low GPA

   VegasScout replied to llbean's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Roseman University in Las Vegas has become quite competitive as so many from California apply. They state that 2.75 is the minimum GPA that they accept, but so many applicants apply that 2.75 is not a competitive GPA. I graduated in 2018 from Roseman...

7. Roseman University to Working in California

   VegasScout replied to hobbyphotog's topic in California

   I graduated from Roseman in June 2018. You must live in Las Vegas or your life will be Hell. As mentioned above, they occasionally do have spontaneous labs that you MUST be present for. And yes, they are quick to hold people back to the cohort behind...

8. Nevada Graduate to California License Processing

   VegasScout replied to nurseb00's topic in California

   That's definitely not too specific and is a good question. I graduated from Roseman University in Henderson 2.5 years ago. I just received my CA nursing license through endorsement on 12/31/20. About a week ago, LOL. I did not have an oral commu...

9. Nursing school out of California

   VegasScout replied to Agoose98's topic in California

   Many Californian's attend Roseman University in Las Vegas. It is an accelerated BSN and 95% of the student body is from California. It is a very popular school. You must maintain a 4.0 GPA or you are held back, but they tell you exactly what they wan...

10. California Endorsement Process

    VegasScout replied to nps07's topic in General Nursing

    I just received my CA nursing license through endorsement on 12/31/20. My advice is to go to CA directly to do the Livescan fingerprinting process. It is so much easier and faster. I drove from Las Vegas to Barstow, CA and got it done and it still al...

11. Roseman University to Working in California

    VegasScout replied to hobbyphotog's topic in California

    I graduated from Roseman in June 2018 and almost everyone was from California. I might have known 2 or 3 people who had a part time job while in school. Most don't however; the pace can be grueling. You must live in Las Vegas while attending and only...

12. New Grad positions in Las Vegas

    VegasScout replied to DianaCC's topic in Job Hunt

    I don't know how long it takes for a reciprocal license because this was my first state I was licensed in, but we pride ourselves on NOT being California. We should be much faster than that. The StaRN program usually lists openings on Indeed in Las ...

13. New Grad positions in Las Vegas

    VegasScout replied to DianaCC's topic in Job Hunt

    Unfortunately, the market for new grads in Las Vegas is even worse under COVID conditions. Las Vegas does not have a shortage of new grad nurses by any means. People want to live here and we have no state taxes. Plus nursing pay is pretty good here. ...

14. New Grad positions in Las Vegas

    VegasScout replied to DianaCC's topic in Job Hunt

    I live in Las Vegas and was a new grad last June. There are so many nursing schools here that graduate BSN nurses that it can be hard for new grads to get the jobs they want. Luckily, I always wanted to be a psych nurse and here they always hire new ...

15. Roseman University ABSN - Change, Growth and Learn

    VegasScout replied to soguilk's topic in Nevada

    Here is an update on the grading system at Roseman. They now use GPA and everyone who graduates gets a 4.0 GPA because you can only continue in the program if you maintain a 4.0 GPA throughout. All transcripts now reflect the GPA grading system.
