This is my target start date also. We should motivate each other to ensure we are on track to apply for this start date.

Thank you for your advise. How many courses did you complete from straigterline to WGU? What courses did you complete?

Thank you for the advise. I am taking AP1 right now and have completed 2 exams with A's.

Hi All, I am currently enrolled in two straigherline courses for the pre-licensing program at Western Governors University. I was wondering if anyone else was taking courses at WGU? Or anyone who has completed courses through straighterline? Any advise for successfully completing online self pace courses?

Hi ShondaJ, I am currently enrolled in two straigterline courses for WGU pre-licensing nursing program in CA. I am aiming for the July 2015 program start date. Are you taking any courses through straigterline? If so, which courses?

Check out Straighterline.com. There are multiple courses that are self paced and cohort based. In addition, some courses are lead by professors that may be transferred to a college.

Sacramento City College is the only community college in the Sacramento area that has a LVN program. Other schools that are in the Sacramento area includes Charles A Jones, costs around $20,000. Twin rivers adult school is a part-time program which costs $22,000. Schools here in Sacramento like Carrington, Unitek and Kaplan are all above $30,000.

Hello Everyone! I was wondering if anyone was planning to apply to Twin Rivers for summer 2013? Which is the August 14, 2013 start date?

I live in CA and work at an Assisted Living Facility as a Med Tech. I pass schedule meds, PRNs, Narcs, eye drops, nasal sprays and even administer patches. I also transcribe orders and keep in constant communication with Doctors. Personally, I do not feel that LVNs are being replaced by med techs.

Yes I do think it is possible to find a job at the hospital if you have prior healthcare experience.

It depends on where you work. I work at a Assisted Living Facility. Since my facility does not require you to have a CNA license, I think they take advantage of this. I do feel like I am underpaid. I do not mind because I attend school full time and they work with my schedule. In addition, I do not receive holiday pay or time and a half.

Once I started looking, it took me about a month to find a job.

They will tell us our acceptance through our imail account through eservices.

I graduated from Sac Med Training June 2010. I recommend this program. This is one of the cheapest programs in the Sacramento Area and you are in and out in 19 days. I currently work in an Assisted Living Facility.
