Riverside City College: Spring 2017

I'm so excited!!!

I applied for the advanced placement spring slot. I already passed the AP exam, and was waiting for an invite to test in, and get into the 4th semester. Aparantly a few students didn't pass their second semester, and I got a call from Steve on Thursday inviting me into the third semester (winter) because I was at the top of the list for AP.

I'm super excited that I got a spot but, class starts on January 3rd, so I'm having to rush to get everything done on time (and of course the uniforms in my size are on back order).

Congrats! I wish I could have taken nursing 18 for advanced placement, but I was late and applied to the traditional program and got in. Best of luck in your journey!

Has any of the alternates gotten an invite yet?

No

Has any of the alternates gotten an invite yet?

That's a big negative for me. Wonder when they get to that point; if people usually decline their spot or if it's more background, drug testing, etc. that weed people out? This waiting in sooo stressful. I thought my family would finally have an answer so we can make plans; we have to move in order for me to attend RCC. My husband will need to start looking for another job for next year. Just praying that if I get in, I'll be notified sometime in early Jan.

I'm hoping when the lvn advanced placement people get chosen that it will free up some spots

My friend who got in was an alternate, and she didn't find out till about 3 weeks before class started.

What week does spring semester typically begin at RCC?

Classes start the day before Valentine's Day.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas

Don't know if the sale is still going on, but champion compression tops were on sale at target (30% off) if you want a long sleeve undershirt for your uniform.

Hey, since I'm taking my last pre-reqs which includes micro, does it have an effect on me getting into the Fall 2017 nursing program? The application period is between January to February.
