  1. West Coast University

    ShondaJ replied to ElizabethTonoyan's topic in California Nursing

    WOW. So instead of the bashing the school you bash the students and pretty much call them stupid and lazy without actually saying it??? I for one can get into a other nursing programs and I for one...

  2. West Coast University

    ShondaJ replied to ElizabethTonoyan's topic in California Nursing

    That is an ADN Program that is 50% and only 4 students took it. They are most likely previous student from another school year because they don't offer ADN. It is not the BSN! I went to the LA Campus...

  3. Actual West Coast University California student input needed!!

    ShondaJ replied to ShondaJ's topic in School, College Programs

    I am asking for actual students. Not all employers are doing what you are doing. You made it clear you don't hire individuals who go to WCU. How would you know who is weak when you never gave them a...

  4. West Coast University

    ShondaJ replied to ElizabethTonoyan's topic in California Nursing

    WCU's passing score is 78.45% in LA. Which is far above a few schools who is below 70% and one at 50%. That is not the only thing that determine whether a school is reputable or good enough for a...

    ShondaJ replied to rnlicious's topic in California Nursing

  8. Kaplan San Diego ADN Program

    ShondaJ replied to rnlicious's topic in California Nursing

    Going to Kaplan keeps you stuck because they are not WASC or CCNE Accredited meaning you are not able to transfer your credits to other universities. I found that out this week. I would suggest...

  9. Is mount st marys the same as west coast university? (LA)

    ShondaJ replied to emaytwo11's topic in School, College Programs

    I think it was UCLA. I was looking at their website and found it. WCU takes financial aid and military GI Bill that is not upfront money so they do not take money up front. I will be using both. They...

  10. West Coast University

    ShondaJ replied to ElizabethTonoyan's topic in California Nursing

    Just because it is a "For profit" school doesn't mean they have a low reputation. I have looked into schools myself and not all students come out weak in skills or unprepared. I would see those as...

    ShondaJ replied to emaytwo11's topic in School, College Programs

    While they may be alittle costly, they both offer a good educational experience for nursing students. West Coast University has a state of the art simulations center that mimics and actual hospital...

  12. VA Hiring Process

    ShondaJ replied to wife&mommyRN's topic in Government, Military

    There is probably like a probationary period they are doing and if you get through it then you move up. Like some government jobs who have target pay grades. Start you lower and the following year...

    ShondaJ replied to rockiesgurl's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I agree. If you can't handle working study independently and can't stay self dedicated to the program only outside of the classroom, Don't do the Accelerated. You would be better off doing the 18...

  16. VA Hiring Process

    ShondaJ replied to wife&mommyRN's topic in Government, Military

    VA does things different than others so you most likely will start off lower than your use top. I applied to transfer to VA Police since I could work the hours to get my BSN but their officers start...

  21. VA Hiring Process

    ShondaJ replied to wife&mommyRN's topic in Government, Military

    Are you speaking of GS-2 Step 7? For VA their pay scale is VN series. Register nurses don't get paid that low if your talking GS-2. That position they are offering doesn't sound like a nursing...

    ShondaJ replied to rockiesgurl's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Unless you are going to a school that cost $130,000 like here in California at West Coast University, I would be happy to pay $50,000 or $80,000. Those are not bad being that is the cost for the...

  25. iS CARRINGTON COLLEGE NATIONALLY ACCREDITED???

    ShondaJ replied to sadie.81612's topic in School, College Programs
