  1. West Coast University Help! and Advice

    I'm not sure about the Anaheim campus, I'm in Ontario but I would think just like anything else, you have to do your due diligence. There are some great staff members and then there are some that we...

  8. West Coast University Opinion?

    Thank you Moorejulie! I have had such a great experience with WCU (Ontario), that it is really sad when people bad mouth this institution without even setting foot in it. It is accelerated, however...

    Just an FYI, there is a new law being passed that will cap your student loan payment to no more than 10% of your monthly income. You can always make more if you want to, but they cannot require you...
  10. venting about west coast university

    lil miss, I'm starting 4th term and I must say things to tend to vary quite a bit from campus to campus. I'm in Ontario and have had great professors and admin. I have a Bachelors from CSUF and I...
  11. I did use a co-signer only because I wanted to make sure I got the best possible rate. It's great that they changed the science class pre req expiration dates. The total program will run about 133k...
  12. Good to know, sounds like it will be up to the student to stay on top of them and make sure they don't screw it up. I had heard about the crazy scheduling in the Nursing classes. Hopefully they will...
  13. Can you give a little more detail on what you mean and your experiences? I'm a WCU student but have only been there two terms. So far I haven't had any bad experiences and admin has actually been...

    If I can give you any advice it would be to stay ahead of the work load. Accelerated is an understatement... it is achievable but you have to put the work in to it. Buddy up with your classmates and...

    From what I hear from classmates just about everyone needed a co-signer, including myself. Just keep in mind you actually end up getting 2 loans. The first covers only pre-reqs and the nursing...
  18. West Coast University June 2011

    I've been chatting with so many students who are in their 1st and 2nd year of clinicals and they all have really great things to say (I'm in Ontario). I have yet to run into someone who has had a bad...
  19. For me, I'm a bit older so I wanted to get it done as soon as possible. Also, my husband makes enough to support us, so even If I do not find work immediately, I do have a back up plan. It is...
  20. I'm challenging Speech and College Algebra. I wish I challenged Written Comm as well. Best of
  21. Just to update. Anyone who has previous courses taken that do not get transfer credit, challenge the class. I have yet to meet someone who challenged a test and did not pass it. They give you the...

    They actually have amazing labs. It was one of the things that really attracted me to this school. If you are going to spend this much money, at least you get the best technology out of it. The...

  25. Starting West Coast University April 2011

    As far as finding a job, I don't believe the accreditation affects it at all. As long as the program is approved by the BRN. Although, I'm sure hiring managers have preferences to certain academic...
