@@vicentevelasquez9284 1000% NOT true. As long as the school you’re enrolled in is accredited hospitals will hire you. What gets you hired is how well you do in your interviews.

Cool lol it’s like a hack

I think you should wait depending on how long you’re willing to wait because I don’t think the price is worth it when you can pay really nothing at a CC or have financial aid cover it without debt. ☺️ How has it been going these months? Did you get into a CC?

Hello. They do supply you with one but its a very cheap version. You can barely hear anything especially with the mannequins we use. I personally use a littmann stethoscope. It’s very durable and the most popular brand tbh.

@@dez.janelle4979 thank you so much ! I will definitely be getting her some new ones!

Hello ray sorry for such a late reply. Schools been pretty hectic lately. But working is doable at WCU a lot of people work full time jobs have kids etc. to each their own so my biggest advice is to ask yourself how committed you are if you do work because doing both is extremely draining. If possible I would not work for the first half or even quarter of your nursing core. 1. To get accustom to the work flow and see if you can really handle it. And 2. Because the first half I would say is very time consuming there’s a lot of days you need to obligate actually being in theory, clinical, skills lab, and sims. So those can take up 3-4 days of your week. But after the first half the you usually have one theory class and clinical and then your other class is asynchronous. So the rest is all time management really. It’s a long reply but hope this help :)

Mainly the sciences because they do expire for sure in 5 years! The others may have longer time to expire

I thought it was just the sciences !

Yes WCU IS accredited EX: california board exam

Hey! So I can’t remember exactly what was on the TEAS cause it’s been so long but basically it’s a placement exam that consist of Math, English (grammar, reading, writing), science (if I’m not mistaken it’s mainly biology and some basic anatomy/physiology) and I think you need like a 69% to pass? I could be wrong. But look on the WCU website and it should say. The TEAS can be difficult if you’ve been out of school for awhile and haven’t been in a big comprehensive test setting. You can always buy a “TEAS for dummies” book and study from there. Now failing out of WCU you have 2 chances and honestly as long as you put in the work and use all your resources such the many different forms of tutoring WCU offers and you’ll be fine! Goodluck to you!

@@dez.janelle4979 thank you so much for replying to me and the recommendations and information! This made me feel more confident! Good luck and blessing on your nursing path 😊

It's nursing for me

Hello. I’m not an expert at loan but from my understanding your interest is higher than the loan itself because your APR or interest rate is high. Meaning it would be best to get a co-signer who has better credit to be approved for a lower interest rate. An interest rate below 7% is considered good. As for your courses they should give you a proposed schedule with the classes you took to see how many units you’ll be taking at WCU it is unfair for them to tell you to get a loan first because you need to know the exact amount of classes you’ll be taking to even apply for a loan amount. You can’t apply for a loan amount with a guess amount. Once your schedule is set your financial advisors will give you the loan amount to ask for. Hope this helps!

If you’ve taken any GE courses outside of west coast it will transfer as long as the course matches their requirement and is within 5years

@@dez.janelle4979 al the prerequisites have to be within 5 yrs or just the sciences?

I would like to say yes as long as you pass the requirements like not failing previous nursing courses, passing the hesi or the teas, etc. you can always call the school and see what they require.

Honestly, I’ve never had a Sunday clinical. Knock on wood I don’t get one because weekdays work best for me. There are a lot of options for you to get placed in a weekday clinical. And if you do get a weekend. Some students are willing to switch because it works better for them. I’ve only had one lecture class on a weekend which wasn’t too bad. Hope this helps :)

I’m planning on starting in June as well! But I’m from NorCal!

I heard they lost hospital contracts Only nursing homes

thats true here in LA County@@TheMaleNurse777

Honestly I have no bought any books.. they provide you with the ATI books you need. But every other book there are PDF files previous students are willing to share. And if you’re old school like me who needs hard copies you can either find cheap used ones or other nursing students who sell books. Even from other nursing programs not just WCU. save your money if you can.

Oh man just reading this makes me frustrated for you!! I had a decent GPA as well and no CC was accepting me so I had to settle for WCU and just get this journey going. Lol Goodluck on your journey tho!

Omg! I’m in the same situation. I have a 4.0, 82 on teas, and work in a hospital as a CNA, but got rejected at 4 Los Angeles ADN programs, and got 2 alternate. Sadly most schools are lottery here in LA. I’m going to WCU in Jan

@@jessicaftw9564 why not try going for lvn then do the bridge program at cc since you already have all the necessary requirements you’ll have a higher chance of getting in that way & you’ll have experience on the floor when it’s time to apply for an rn job :)

@@k.g7856 update: I got in as a alternate!! I start the adn program in 2 weeks. Thank goodness 😭

@@jessicaftw9564 yess congrats!! what college did u get in if u don’t mind me asking? I’m currently working on my ge & pre reqs at lavc

Ff

There’s fall 1 which usually starts in august and ends at the end of October and fall 2 which usually starts in November. I would suggest starting the application process about 1-2 terms before. Each terms are 10 weeks so if he knows the start date count 10-20 weeks before. The earlier the better to give you more time to get all your documents done. You can always tell them the exact start date you want even if you apply 2-3 terms early. Hope this helps! And Goodluck to your son! :)

@@dez.janelle4979 Thanks again!

Usually their hours are 7-7 or 7-5 from what I’ve seen. I start core next term and when we were choosing our top 5 preferences they had those hours but first term of core is only lab and skills idk if those hours change once your actually go clinical sites

Soo clinicals are mostly 12 hrs shift 1day a week. The only 8 hour clinical is your mental health rotation. Your first term has a 11hr clinicals shift but your first 5 weeks is 11hr skills lab instead of being on a clinical site. The shifts usually are 0630-1830 or some could be graveyard. Hope that helps :)

Hey! Thank you for watching! For loans I personally like acent. It’s one of the choices they give you. It really doesn’t matter which loan you go for. As long as you and your co signer have good credit. But I would recommend doing a fixed loan which means your interest rate doesn’t change throughout the years you’re in school and paying for the loan. Also deferred which means you don’t have to make payments until you’re down with school. So it’s a little less stress when you’re in the program. I hope that helps!

@@dez.janelle4979 Thank you soooooo much! This was definitely helpful! I appreciate it! That’s honestly what I was scared of, finding a loan provider that wouldn’t let me pause payment until after I graduated. I definitely will be applying today, thank you for the help 😊 🙏🏼

@@ORANGE_006_BRIX oh good! I’m glad I can help! Goodluck to you when you start!

I am also starting WCU in June I’m super excited and nervous! Thank you for the tips!

@@miguelzuniga5605 Nice bro!! Which campus???

Thank you love!! I’m glad it helped! Best of luck to you in the program! 💕

Hi Danica , I’m actually looking to go too WCU too I’m just really nervous, if you don’t mind me asking how is it so far ?

@@briannamonzon3920 Hi Brianna! I'm currently in my 2nd term and so far all of my professors have been amazing! As of right now my experience with the school has been very positive!

@@danicaxmakeupp Thats so amazing! If you don’t mind me asking which location do you attend ? What classes are you currently taking and do the classes feel overwhelming? I’m sorry for all the questions I’m just a bit nervous and I’m trying to gather all the info I can (:

@@briannamonzon3920 No worries, I'm happy to help! I attend the LA location and so far all of my classes have been online via zoom. I was able to transfer most of my pre-reqs, but I did decide to take Anatomy and Physiology at WCU and I'm so glad I did because those two classes are pretty much the foundation in nursing. I also want to mention that it is required to take 4 classes in WCU before you start nursing core (First year seminar, critical reasoning, pathophysiology, and GE Capstone). I'm taking Physiology and Critical Reasoning right now and working 24 hours a week and don't feel overwhelmed at all. But I also did need to develop good time management skills. I can't say how overwhelming nursing core is, but I do know some people who are in nursing core and still manage to work full-time.

About 50,000

That’s how much I saved & all my my prerequisites weren’t even completed

It’s hard to give an exact number because they change the tuition so often. But an estimate I would say like 50-70k depending how much GE and pre reqs you got done. Hope that helps! :)

@@taryndupuy9714 yass girl I’m glad you saved something!! These loans are no joke 😭

@@taryndupuy9714 hi! How many prerequisites did you complete?

Umm an estimate without your interest I want to say about 70-80k. It’s hard to give an exact number because they don’t bill you all at once it’s by semester (2 terms)

And it’s about 5 semesters for nursing core

@@dez.janelle4979 it’s now 130,000

I paid $145k fall ‘23

@@TheMaleNurse777is this the cost including prerequisite courses or with them finished? I’m thinking of applying but not sure since I will have to factor in the costs for moving/rent

Ive been trying to get into a nursing program for so long and started to feel defeated when I couldn’t get in a program. Which is what led me to WCU so even tho it sucks having debt I would say I am happy with my decision and I’m glad I didn’t give up on nursing. :)

@@dez.janelle4979 Thank you i’m glad to hear that! I’m in the same boat so it gives me reassurance moving forward with West Coast. Wishing you all the best! 💛

@@millymillie same to you!! You’ll do great! 🥰

@@millymillie you pick

Yes for the first few terms I’m online. Even with nursing core I’m online for lecture. I think most WCU are only allowing students to go on campus for skills and sims lab. Or some theory classes but with limited capacity. Goodluck to you!! I’m here if you need any help or advice <3

Hi Karlynne, what campus are you going to start? Did you take test to enter the program already?

@@raquelmartinez2787 Hey Raquel I’m going to be at the Anaheim campus. Are you going there too? And for the entrance exam are you referring to the TEAS exam? That was the only exam I took so far.

@@dez.janelle4979 thanks so much!! ❤️❤️

@@karlynnej yes that’s the one, I talked to counselor a couple weeks ago, and I was thinking to start the process to enter the same location in Anaheim to start in April semester too, hopefully it’s not to late for me

Hi tiana! Depending on how many classes you’ve got done before your core classes it can take anywhere between 2-3.5 years. But the nursing core itself is a little under 2 years. There’s so much to say about nursing classes lol I can make a video talking about what nursing classes are like at WCU if you’re interested.

@@dez.janelle4979 Yes, if you can please do! I'm done with all my core classes, I'm just looking into programs right now and possibly considering West Coast. However, I want to make sure the program itself is good. Also, can you give an estimate of how much the nursing classes may be in total for 2 years? Please, and thank you so much!!

@@taniaflores430 an estimate I want to say about 70-80k don’t quote me because they raise pricing pretty often so it all depends on when you’d like to start. But I can try and get a video out for you soon. Leave a comment on some of the topics you’d want me to cover. If you specific questions regarding the program and I’ll do my best to answer them :)

I’d double check bc they just raised the prices for new coming students starting April. They said it was like a 10% raise but I’d say yes, it’s about 80k going in with all prereqs done. But with loan interest the amount due I’ll owe will probably be closer to 100k 😭

alxcerose hehe thank you 💕

Hi yes! I can't remember the exact colors I used on this tbh but everything is from the morphe 3502 palette, foundation tarte clay, and "bronzer" caramel toffee Sephora powder foundation I'll show the exact colors on my next one hehe :D

ItsMeBABYJ oh thank you so much!! I would’ve loved to see each product, but I’ll wait for the next one 💕

Just tell me when! Lol
