    OCstudent1 posted a topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Hi! So I've recently decided on attending Stanbridge College for their LVN program. I looked at a few others, including Pacific, but decided on Stanbridge (for now). I like that their curriculum is RN...

    OCstudent1 replied to thenursinglife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Hi! So the $400 cost is to cover the price of the books they will be handing you once your orientation week is over. If your tuition is not going to be totally covered by grants or loans then I'm...

    OCstudent1 posted a topic in LPN, LVN Students

  6. Going to Stanbridge College for LVN

    OCstudent1 replied to ShilohPepsi's topic in California Nursing

    I'm enjoying it, as much as you can enjoy being in nursing school! I work full time so I'm in the part time program, still in term 1. Academic wise I enjoy it, it's challenging, you have good books to...

  7. Going to Stanbridge College for LVN

    OCstudent1 replied to ShilohPepsi's topic in California Nursing

    Their clinical sites are located for the most part throughout Orange County, from La Mirada to Orange, Costa Mesa, Santa Ana. They keep it more local than other schools. They do NOT include the Ipod...

  8. Accepting this gift from a patient

    OCstudent1 replied to nursingpower's topic in General Nursing

    I have to say, definitely DO NOT return. On your own accord at least. If your hospital says you must return it, then ask them to return it, and send another thank you note with an explanation of why...

  9. West Coast University Nursing Program Questions, Please Help!

    OCstudent1 replied to j-lyn's topic in California Nursing

    It is expensive, but ALL private schools for a BSN will be around the same price. It's the price you pay for a faster track. The only way to avoid the cost is go through a community college and...

  11. Going to Stanbridge College for LVN

    OCstudent1 replied to ShilohPepsi's topic in California Nursing

    They did push mine back, which I thought was strange. They called the friday before and said they are pushing it to June 2, when we were supposed to start May 17. They said it was due to students not...

    OCstudent1 replied to omgitsmari's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    You know I would really like to comment about everyone saying there are "no jobs" as a new LVN or RN grad. I personally feel it is projecting your own frustrations and attempting to ruin the outlook...

  15. Going to Stanbridge College for LVN

    OCstudent1 replied to ShilohPepsi's topic in California Nursing

    That's weird. I just spoke with the financial aid advisor yesterday and she reassured me that my $400 will be returned once she receives my Sallie Mae loan (around june). She said that because my...

  20. Nobody wants a GVN?!

    OCstudent1 replied to pageturnstyle's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Knowing a few nurses I would say it's definitely NOT a good idea to apply before even passing the NCLEX. Put yourself in their position: why would you want to hire an anxious student who has yet to...

    OCstudent1 replied to ChikitaKisses's topic in California Nursing

    I would say from what I've heard doing the pre-reqs at a cc is the best idea if you want to go to WCU.......that being said, you also cannot ignore the fact at some community colleges, it is near...
