I had been waiting to get a seat in this program since the Fall 2007 semester. They kept changing the selection process from a waiting list, to a lottery, to pools of lotteries, etc. Last spring they finally changed it to an entrance exam (PAX-RN), I received a spot, however it took so long to hear back from them that I took a seat at another school. This program has a good reputation however there were a lot of problems within the program recently and they did an overhaul of it. There were problems with tests and grades from what I heard.

Is there anyone who is currently at RCC in their nursing program? I'd like some info on this program. I am applying for Spring 2012. How are clinicals, the professors, etc.? Thank you.

I'm almost finished with lpn school, they offer a week of tests in June for challenge exams. You can test out of 6 nursing classes total. They tell you not to expect to pas these exams but I think they're just trying to deter you. After you pass the written exams you have to pass competencies. They automatically give you 2 classes for being an lpn

I took the NLN Pax in spring 11 and got in for spring 12. Just about to finish my 1st semester. It's a very good program and the professors are awesome and very helpful.
