Hello All,

I am interested in applying to The ADN program but somewhat doubtful because they are not accredited by the ACEN. I would like to know what RN-BSN programs take their nurses classes? With no accreditation not many will. 

[FightingPollo, LVN]

I know it’s accredited by Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC) and licensed to operate in California by the Bureau for Private Post-Secondary Education (BPPE) www.bppe.ca.gov

Which the dept of education recognizes both as reputable and viable agency. It’s also approved by the CA BRN. I’m not sure if this answers your question but I found this info on smith chason’s consumer page.

Why not go back to the school you had to leave because of your Covid infection? Taking 6 classes is not as hard as you make it to be.

Can anyone provide any updates how the program is going for them? Also, how much does it cost if you have all your prerequisites done? Thanks in advance!
