Riverside Community College Nursing Program Spring 2016

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hi everyone!

I thought I would begin a thread for everyone applying to the nursing program at Riverside City College for the spring 2016. Hope we can share about our process here. :)

Currently, I'm finishing up my Anatomy/Physiology 2 and Sociology 100 at CSUSB. So far, I've been doing well, I think haha! If I finish with an A in sociology I'll have a 4.0 for my general eds and a 3.0 for my science gpa. After the spring quarter, I'll be studying for the TEAS exam for a little over a month and take the exam in July. Any advice that's related to the TEAS exam?

Hope we can begin this thread. Best wishes to everyone here! :yes::up::)

Hi everyone!! I'm applying to spring 2016. At first I was bummed because I took my prerequisite classes at CSUSB 5 yrs ago and I was getting mixed answers from past and current students but finally after the 10,000th call I got confirmation from them that there is currently no expiration date :) now that opens my chances to getting into a program. I'm applying to RCC, Mt. SAC, and Citrus being the furthest I can go. I got my BS in public health after trying to get into CSUSBs nursing program and failing but now I'm ready to finish what I started ;) . RCC students come to our hospital for clinicals and they carry themselves very well and their passing rates are great so they are definitely on my top list ! Good luck to all of us ! Kind of bummed they don't grant more points for a BS like they do at other schools but oh well it is what it is.

Hi! :]

Glad to hear that you are resuming your nursing education. I also come from CSUSB (am currently a student there) and I do not have a chance of applying to their nursing program. I was pretty bummed myself and was planning to change major into the health management. However, after doing research and taking a few classes, I knew that wasn't for me. The counselor even told me to switch majors because I won't be graduating with a BS in nursing. But I'm not giving up :)

I wish you the best in applying to this program. I've been hearing great reviews about this program.

I'm going to the information workshop next Thursday as well. I'm planning to meet up with the counselor one more time before applying :]

Good luck with the exam! I'm planning on taking it in the middle of September. It'll give me some time to study. I hope I can score in the 90's as well or high 80's. :)

So far I have 50 points without the TEAS.

Me too! I'm taking the exam in September. My school offers it for $60.

I believe the acceptances and denials for the spring are sent this December.
