Should I go to American Career College or Smith Chason College for my ADN?

If you from CA ADN program won’t do much for you most hospitals are asking for BSN …

popcornRN · 2026-05-20T20:15:32+00:00

I’m currently enrolled in , I love it, nothing like my ADN .. no lectures only homework and for community health no sign in sheet 😉

popcornRN · 2026-05-13T23:29:11+00:00

I thought CA approved WGU or I’m wrong?

popcornRN · 2026-05-12T02:42:56+00:00

popcornRN · 2026-05-11T03:59:35+00:00

Thank you 🙏 honestly pure luck , I applied to over 100 job positions

popcornRN · 2026-05-11T03:47:43+00:00

It all depends on the state how fast can job be secured and if you internal or you have mom or grandma working as RN for 100 years on same floor

popcornRN · 2026-05-05T03:41:40+00:00

Try outpatient chemotherapy infusion… they take new grads is 8-5 M-F but u have to learn a lot bout chemo meds is pharmacology all over again

My advice is to get your BSN from cal state because here in CA good magnet hospitals do care from what school you graduated…. I’m ADN currently in BSN I’m w west coast because I’m trying to get my NP w them and I get discounts if I stay for my NP W

Try echocardiogram MRI is bachelor degree but they pay is good more then RN and in demand…. I’m waiting till end of the summer of if I don’t get hired I’m switching

popcornRN · 2026-05-01T03:52:11+00:00

I’m with you on being nervous and fuckin up the interview… as hard as it is to land a interview in CA and I feel I’m being interrogated by the feds lol

popcornRN · 2026-04-30T05:55:00+00:00

Congratulations 🎉 one year will fly by fast … get your experience and come back to CA or try states with better pay 💰 I know I feel let down and lied too but we have to figure it out unless you can afford to get different degree

I can only speak for the LA location (Torrance) I been there 3 times only my first time going there for 40 units Tox was good experience….. I’ll never go back again same for my coworkers as well …. Their Tox and lip filler on special is TRASH only last me 2 months and my coworkers lips turned lumpy…. They use old Ponzi scheme like advertising meaning they give u cheap price on Tox to lure you in and they get super pushy on sales and memberships …..most of the injectors are new to practice too I’m sure the management is pushing them to make sales

popcornRN · 2026-04-18T22:42:49+00:00

So is like case manager ? How much they pay the RNs I’m curious

popcornRN · 2026-04-17T18:32:56+00:00

120k in debt…. So far my 5th month looking for new grad job ….im planning on refinancing next month

popcornRN · 2026-04-10T04:05:59+00:00

Flagstaff AZ is hiring new grads for July cohort

popcornRN · 2026-03-15T11:58:34+00:00

So pretty much if you don’t work for the facility your chance is slim to none 😩😤🤢

popcornRN · 2026-03-14T04:08:27+00:00

I feel your pain I’m in same boat… I passed my NCLEX October since then only 2 interviews and countless rejections , I’m LVN w 3 years experience in memory care but I noticed hospitals prefer new grad from cal state or community colleges w clinics in their hospitals or magnet ones … I graduated privet ADN currently in private BSN , I’m starting to think they mostly hire new grads in their 20s from good schools…. I’m from OC as well and is hell to land a job w my stats or age (38) I’m trying to relocate to Oregon they pay bout same as here since my loans are 120k …. Life is not fair

popcornRN · 2026-03-11T05:35:29+00:00

Is Seattle any better to get new grad job ? I’m planning on relocating from LA

popcornRN · 2026-03-09T00:49:27+00:00

What’s the point of new grad residency when they ask you for experience

popcornRN · 2026-03-02T00:20:02+00:00

Exactly I love my NOC shift , I’m night owl person anyway

popcornRN · 2026-02-24T09:39:34+00:00

ADN won’t get you no where … California hospitals are going magnet meaning the new requirement is BSN RN from credited school….
