I give a ton of credit to all professors, especially Professor JP for making Advanced Med Surg material easy to learn and absorb !!! My NCLEX was a good 75% med surg and I was able to recall so much from class that was taught by JP and Christine, it made the NCLEX easy in my opinion!! I hope this speaks volumes to how well these professors are !! I encourage those who are interested in Pacific College to go ahead and join this school! Like I said previously, if you put in your own work as a dedicated student, you will enjoy your time at this school and working with every professor! Thank you Pacific College for a memorable educational experience! If I had to do it again, I wouldn't change a thing !! Good luck to everyone!

They are networked in the community, offer small class sizes, cater to the working adult and are reasonable in cost. The campus is shared on a health facility where their programs can link to National University and John F. Kennedy University health undergraduate and graduate programs ... which makes it easier to transfer. Classes are available when you need them and you can graduate sooner than the public system. I highly recommend researching WestMed if you are looking to complete a Medical Assisting, CNA or LVN. Once you have completed a program, you can further your education with one of their affiliates while working in the area of your focus.

Just because they have habits that are beyond their control. When I was there I never encountered a teacher who lashed out at anyone just to get a rise out of them. Just professionalism and compassion was all they showed. Another example of how their program stands out from all the other colleges who teach Special Needs Adults that I really appreciated was the fact that they didn't force independent living skills, or suggest that you live on your own or say things like your parents are not going to live for ever so you need to start planning ahead, however if that was an option you wanted to explore? It was there, but there but there was no obligation. It was a joyous experience around the holidays with the staff planning Halloween, and Christmas parties, as well as the See's Candy fundraiser. Coming here will be self rewarding and very fun!

I am an Alumn from BSNRS cohort 7 but a majority of the experience of my time at Stanbridge was in…read moreBSNLA cohort 6. I finished the BSN program in July of 2025. I received my ATT (approval to test) within one week from my last day. I had the option to test immediately but I had applied to test with accommodations so with limited centers for accommodations I tested 1 month out in August and passed the first time. I worked closely with our Careers Center and the director Dr. Willinger to create an amazing resume right after receiving my license, began applying to jobs immediately and received an invitation to interview within one week for DaVita. Two weeks later I received an invitation to interview for an ER position close to home which was my first choice to build a strong foundation as a new nurse. I know there are a lot of negative comments about this school on here. I have heard and watched a lot of sad and crazy experiences that my friends and other peers endure with staff and faculty throughout my 3.5 years there. I have experienced questionable professors and staff who are obviously there for the paycheck. On the other end, I have met 2x as many INCREDIBLE staff and faculty throughout my time at Stanbridge. People need to understand that this is still a relatively new program and it's still working through a lot of adjustments both within the programs itself, how they handle students, and how they handle staff. But with being new comes an advantage to incoming students because with the help of the right people and resources, there is flexibility and grace that comes with a class or a term that possibly end in a fluke (I.e. bad professors, missing classes due to extreme circumstances, etc.). I understand this is not everyone's experience, but I HAVE seen multiple times where the school does work with students to properly evaluate their knowledge of a subject a second time if there is overwhelming evidence showing it was not properly done the first time. It also is dependent on how an issue is communicated as well. Any nursing program out there is hard and rigorous. Stanbridge is not unique to this. I can confidently say that I went in to the NCLEX feeling so prepared because of how this school preps you. If you follow testing strategies and work closely with the coaches at the end of the program YOU. WILL. PASS. From Term 1 Stanbridge works with students not just on building testing stamina but building testing stamina while sleep deprived. It's not officially an actual thing. They always told us to be well rested and to eat before but, the reality of any nursing program is adequate sleep is simply not possible. You just have to get through each term and pass. Keep moving even if you have a set back, do your best to not stop. I have no idea how many times I thought to myself that I will more than likely not remember anything after the program and I questioned if I really actually learned anything. I have been an ER nurse for almost 7 months now. Every moment of feeling competent, confident, and proud to be a nurse I owe to Stanbridge. While most of my peers in my new grad program have forgotten a lot of basics and high priorities, I am one of the few who still remembers and I am so thankful. I had zero medical background coming into the program. My science gpa at a 3.5 was not competitive enough for CCs, UCs, or CSUs to see me as a priority candidate for their RN program. Stanbridge was the first school to take a chance on me and invest in me. Before Stanbridge I was never the student who was picked for scholarships, awards, or special internships. The last 2 years at Stanbridge I received scholarships every term, was selected for Student Hospital Fellowship, received the Presidential Service Award, and ended the program with the Thomas Fuentes Service Award. This was all because ONE staff member encouraged me to apply each time an opportunity was sent out. The Stanbridge experience is truly what YOU choose to make it. I have met some amazing people with incredible hearts at this school. I loved that I don't need to hike or walk a mile to get to class. I loved that I only needed to be on the ground once or twice a week. Nursing school was THE hardest thing I have ever done. I gave up my entire life for 3 years just to eat, live, breathe, and sleep nursing. You can ensure your success in this program if you want this more than anything else. There will be times where you have to pick school over your family and it sucks. But being on the other side now, it is SO worth it and now I have the rest of my life. My husband is currently in the program now and is in term 4 at the OC campus. He hasn't been in school full time in over 10 years and he is doing amazing. I'm proud to be a nurse and I'm proud to be a Stanbridge Alum. The cost for tuition is pretty steep. If you have a good tribe behind you and can afford to not work during the program, I highly recommend it!

An LVN instructor at an accelerated program who has a god complex and a nasty attitude. Check her out on rate my professor lol. I am now at a REAL school and thriving. Run run run before you end up with federal loans!! I can easily show my grades and attendance. I was a great student and despite her lies that I had a lack of engagement she knows it. I just knew she was an overgrown mean girl. I watched her disrespect and humiliate students for asking QUESTIONS. She docked my grade and failed me a whole term by 1 point for "phone usage" I glanced at my phone in the middle of a medical emergency for my type 1 diabetic child and provided phone records. They did not care. She interrupted and made discouraging comments during practicals and failed more than half the class but passed a student and told her she could tell she tried so she was choosing to pass her. Major favoritism. She made discriminatory comments about lesbians during an extra credit zoom. She made ignorant comments about HIV and getting tested for HIV. Nasty nasty energy. Also remember you can not transfer these credits to a real school. Do it the right way. Go to an actual college, get on the waitlist and save yourself thousands and thoussssands of dollars and get the best education.
