- Hi there! This video is solely my experience and what I know as an incoming BSN sudent in Jan, 2024. Hopefully I helped you in any way...I think choosing the right nursing program is super important and as a full time LVN and mom of 2 kids this school is the best option for me to pursue my nursing career. As always thank you for watching!

Hi I’m an LVN in LA and looking to start September 2024 cohort! Appreciate your continued posts and videos!
Thank you! So exciting and best of luck on your nursing journey!! 🤍
@@student_jenn Is there an admission test?
@@KimberlyMarie282 yes an exam on English/Math/reading but if you don’t pass you’ll be on remediation which would add another class to your scheduled for each that you don’t pass.
You have 3 attempts to pass each exam. It pretty generic so not too bad! Hope this helps
@@student_jennAnd everything is online correct? Like labs for chem, physiology, etc..?
@@Gooby12337 I assume so, I’ve only taken Pathophysiology and nutrition that I was missing for the science pre-requisites and I didn’t have any labs for them just discussions, projects, quizzes and exams
Hi, thank you so much for this information. I’m still on the fence, but I am glad searched for other people’s reviews. What will be tested on the HESI exams. Are they based on different subjects, depending on how far along I’m in the program? Thanks
Hey,It’s a big decision and I suggest if you’re considering Nightingale and have social media join groups that are for Nightingale students in your area! It’s a great for support/connecting and more info on students that might be similar to your situation.
For me I tested for the HESI without taking the class because of my LVN license I had the opportunity/option to test out and the school gave me a list of study guides/quizlets. I studied those and also searched online the class name and found more study materials. I have yet to take a nursing class with Nightingale that have a HESI which will be my next semester in the Summer but yes typically the HESI exams is what you’ve learned in the course. I hope this kinda helps!
@@student_jenn thank you! 🙏🏼
I'm gonna enroll into their LPN program. I really wish someone in that program would make the video.
I’m sorry! Yeah that’s why I started making videos on my part because there weren’t enough people talking about them. Lol now I see more so that’s good 😂
Good luck! Being an LPN/LVN is awesome :)
Omg, I swear I've been looking for a video on the LPN program but no one has yet to make it!
Can you make a video specifically about the travel? I am also from California. Im looking into the BSN program with Nightingale.
Sure! Since I was able to pass 2 nursing core classes before starting my program I don't actually have to travel for clinicals until my 3rd semester which is sometime between September-December.
Can you please make a video on Hesi :)
I tested out of 2 HESI’s so I didn’t have the materials as some students would have if they took the whole course. I used Quizlets as a study guide but a lot of students use the materials from the course and “your best grade”
If people are passing their nclex , it worth every penny. You will learn in depth and master your skills with real life world in your first job. No school is perfect. Focus and focus in no time you’ll het there.
Yes!!! Exactly! 👏🏽👏🏽
How much is your tuition? I remember you said you finished all the GE requirements? thank you 😊
hey! my tuition is about 47k I finished the last GE requirements last semester at nightingale which was 9k for 15 units.
I appreciate the video. I am interested in the RN program, but I am concerned about having to travel for clinical shifts. I live in San Diego, California, and I am wondering if flying will be necessary. I suffer from motion sickness during flights and really dislike flying. Also, I wanted to know if Nightingale accepts transfer credits. I have completed all my prerequisites, have a Bachelor of Health Science, and currently work part-time under a CNA license. Thank you
Hi! The traveling is all based on what clinical site is available and Nightingale College has the locations they're affiliated with on their website called SOFE. I was able to transfer about 59 credits from my Associates Degree! Once you submit your transcripts they will go over it and let you know what other classes you'll need. The science classes need to be within 5 years though and for CA you need College Algebra and Stats. I think that's it, plus the Bachelor level classes.
Hope this helps and good luck!
@@student_jenn Thank you for responding. I appreciate it. I completed College Algebra and Statistics. How long does it normally take to receive an admission response?
No worries! do you mean an admissions call to get interviewed by the school to be a potential student? I was scheduled the next week after I got a call back.
For transcript evaluations it takes them a while! I got mine 3 weeks after I submitted all my trascripts.
Hi @angelynnthan3755, I am from san diego Ca too and I am thinking to do the RN program from nightingale college too. Do you have in mind when you plan to start?
@@sabrinamateo6484 I plan it for September, Fall Semester.
What general education classes do Nightingale college require for RN program?
Hey! They require you to complete the pre-requisites like Anatomy, Physiology, Math, Microbiology etc. they have the list of classes on their catalog on the website
@@student_jenn ty, didn't know they list the classes. I'll take a look. Much appreciated. 💞💞💞
@@888katiechau here’s the catalog link!

hey there! were they able to accept some of the courses you completed in the LVN prgram?@@student_jenn
how many months is the brogram?
It depends on how many pre-requisites you’ve completed and if you have an LVN license to be able to test out of some of the nursing courses.
Without transferring any pre-requisites and no LVN license the program will take about 8 semesters to complete, that’s full-time. Each semester is 4 months long . So about 3 years
@@student_jennSo you can get into this BSN program pretty much right out of high school if you wanted to correct? I already have an associates degree in psychology, so that would probably cut a year off the program for me it sounds like?
@@Gooby12337 yes you can get into the program straight out of high school. With your degree I would assume so but the transcript evaluation will give you an exact answer
I was told they don’t accept students in California…
They do for the BSN! but they don't accept students from California for their LPN - ASN program. I don't remember exactly why though..
