Hello! I thought I'd start this thread for anyone who is applying for the RN program at Riverside City College for Fall 2019! Let's all chat! :)

Is anyone else having trouble with getting the background check/drug test going? It’s says it sent the activation link to my email, but I haven’t received anything. Also, does the package need to be purchased by March 25th or does it need to be completely finished by March 25?

Call them. I had the same issue, they'll unlock your account for you ?. It needs to be completed by March 25th, so get on it ASAP. I ordered it this morning and plan on going later today to get my drug test. Good luck!

Thank you!! I emailed S, but I know how busy he is and was afraid he wouldn’t be able to get back to me in time. Are you able to go the same day you order it? It says it takes 2 days for the instructions to come in the mail. I was afraid the instructions wouldn’t come until Sunday and didn’t want to have to call off work to get it done

Guys, I wouldn’t hold my breath for an answer today. I just called and was told it’s looking more like April 1st for ADN acceptances. ?

I was having the same issue but I realized I didnt put my maiden name under alias. I also used my personal email the second time rather than my rcc email and I got the confirmation email right away. I got my drug test authorization slip right away I didnt have to wait at all. Im actually waiting to get called for labs right now.

It sounds like he's super busy getting all the stuff for the CEP students together. He probably wants to get all that done before focusing on the ADN applicants.

I got my drug screening e-mail confirmation immediately, so I do believe you can do it today if you're off. I'm going to my chosen location later today during their testing hours.

I have zero doubts that he’s busy. It’s a lot of work for one person and I’m sure he’s being bombarded with questions from worriers like me. ?

I got my email right away about the drug screen instructions, I actually went to the lab this morning to get it done all early. They told me to come back at noon because they don't start drug testing until 12:30 I was so bummed.
