Hi there!

Welcome to the Forum for Prospective Nursing students starting in Spring of 2020.

The application period (subject to change and directly from RCC website) opens from the First Business day in September- the First Business day in October to apply for Spring.

Also, Please let me know if creating a Facebook group would be more streamlined.

Feel free to share questions, comments, concerns!

I think I can, but how would that work?? Do I have to go to another college outside of the RCC system? (Thank you so much for you help also ??)
im trying to get into the CEP , but I’m also applying for the ADN just in case

I believe you can petition to retake the class... Or take it elsewhere... Yw! I know how you’re feeling rt now... Whatever you decide to do, I hope you get in... Apply to as many schools as you can! Don’t give up!

I’m not sure... It’s competitive to get in... How are your other sciences ? Did you take your TEAS yet?

Hi @sarinamza Do you have clinical volunteer hours?

Hi everyone,

CEP cohort check your emails. Our intake and bootcamp dates are scheduled.

I was in search of some help from current nursing students. I am planning to apply for Spring 2021. I was at a workshop last week and ------------------ mentioned that the immunization can take a while to receive. ( I would assume some are boosters or got to wait in between a vaccine to get another one?)

Well I emailed him to see if he can send me a list or the form so I can get started but he has been taking a while. I am worried about if I get into the program and I don’t have all my shots in time. Has that been a problem? How much time you get after you get accepted to get your shots and health clearance? Do you guys recommend me starting now, before I get accepted? If so what vaccines should I ask the doctor for?

I wouldn’t worry about the vaccines... You will have more than enough time, once you’ve been accepted into the program

Hey guys, I got accepted into Cal State San Bernardino’s RN program. However I’m an alternative for RCC’s cep program. If I end up getting accepted into the cep program which school do you think I should go to? what do you guys think? Just wanna hear some outside perspective Thanks!

Try COPE health Scholars it’s literally the best hands on experience and will definitely prepare you.
