Unheard Colleges. Help!

[kforgood]

Hi everyone,

I am sooooooo confused. I live in Orange county California. I do not know what colleges to apply to. For now, I am intending to apply to the Santa Ana and golden West college for their ADN. the problem is I found more colleges that I have never heard before. Those are Everest College in Anaheim (LPN), Stanbridge College in Irvine (LPN), West Coast University (LPN to ADN) in Anaheim, and Concordia in Garden Grove (LPN and ADN). Does anyone know if Santa Ana college or golden west is better than those other colleges (everest, stanbridge, etc.)? does SAC and GWC do a better job in training nurses? help!!

I go to West Coast University at the Los Angeles campus. I'm in my first term and I love it. I have heard nothing but good things from students that are higher up in the program than I am. They are a hard school and you really have to study hard. They want their students to be very knowledgable. There is no easy ride here.

The other thing I love is that they seem to really care about thier students. Everytime I run into any of the administrative fauculty they always want to know how things are going, and they geniunelly care about my opinion. They are in the process of building new classroom that are scheduled to be done in the fall. In one of the older classrooms over the holiday break they put in new carpet,paint, and blinds. They take pride in thier campus.

KDP07,

are you in the LPV-ADN bridge program? how much does it cost for the program? I am so undecided right now. I am not sure if I want to be in the waitlist of some community colleges. It seems so long. plus, do you have to take the TEAS?
