One of my biggest pieces of advice to current students and new grads: USE CAREER SERVICES! The new grad job search is not easy, and after rejection after rejection, there were definitely times when finding a position started to feel almost impossible. My career advisor was there throughout the entire process. Christina helped me improve my resume, gave me advice during my job search, and when I finally started getting interviews, she sent me interview prep materials and resources to help me prepare. Having someone in my corner made me feel so much more supported during such an uncertain time. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything!! Once you graduate, pass the NCLEX, and the routine of nursing school is gone, navigating new grad life can feel overwhelming. Take advantage of the resources WCU provides because you don't have to figure everything out completely on your own. I'm so grateful for my experience at West Coast, the friendships I made, and the support I received even after graduating. All of those applications and rejections eventually paid off, and I'm so excited for this next chapter as a peds RN! (Exactly where I hoped to be)

WCU was a roller coaster of an experience for me. Mainly in the sense of managing my time…read moredifferently every 10-weeks. It is all fairly warned and the staff all do their best to ensure you are well supported. This review is going out to anyone who is curious about what happens after you pass both Exit Exam and NXLEX and the support given by the career advisor. During the last term I was paired with Alla Kostanyan, right away she reached out to make an effort to meet me and get to know what my goals were post WCU. She also kept it real and helped me see the many routes a new grad nurse can possibly take. Right away she began to make sure my resume looked good and was ready. I received several emails with all sorts of job openings ahead of time so that I may plan to apply accordingly. In my case particularly, before starting west coast I decided to apply at my local hospital as a patient safety aide, just to see if this is a place I would like to work at after graduation. Well, I loved it there and that gave me a shoe in as I navigated a job there during my time in school. I also stayed proactive and during my first term at WCU I signed up to volunteer at Cedars Sinai (another place I wanted to potentially work at). So you see in my case I did myself a favor beforehand. Which worked out greatly since I was able to build good rapport with both locations for the almost 3 years of school. I put in my work to achieve getting hired at my local hospital and I was able to receive a job offer. Overall , Alla made sure that I place my eggs in several baskets and made the application process easy. It's tough out there as a new grad and it can feel discouraging at times but don't give up because unlike me there are so many successful students whom don't think of a job until after graduation and eventually get hired do to the collective effort one's career advisor provides and the work the student puts in.

Prof. Josh, our Clinical Director of the VN Program, is the best! He always goes above and beyond…read morefor his students. He gives us the reality checks that light a fire under us, motivating us to study hard and prepare for the real world of nursing. He's incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and a little strict but that's because he genuinely wants us to succeed. His passion for teaching, leadership, and dedication to our success make him an outstanding educator. I highly recommend him to anyone who has the opportunity to learn from him. We actually miss having him as our Clinical Instructor. He used to teach our clinicals before he was promoted to Clinical Director, and while we're proud of his achievement, we still wish he could come back and be our Clinical Instructor again. Thank you, Prof. Josh, for inspiring us to become the best nurses we can be!

Where do I even start!! I found FMU on IG and was obsessed with Laura's work, I booked my lip…read moreappointment immediately and loved my results. During this time o was also in nursing school and knew I wanted to be an injector. After graduating I took the basics course with Laura , she was such a good instructor. She went over facial anatomy , safety, different fillers , Botox and technique with me then we did hands on training . During this training she was very detailed and I didn't feel rushed nor did she make me feel scared to ask questions which I loved. After watching her inject a few clients you get the opportunity to inject on your own model , I was very nervous but she walked be through every step. We all know getting hired as a new injector is very challenging and makes you feel like you'll never get in anywhere , but 2 months after my course with Laura she hired me as a laser nurse at FMU then shortly after trained me more and more and now I'm an injector ! Don't give up ! It took me a year after graduating and working at diff Med spas to be where I'm at now, just make sure to get trained and certified by someone who knows what they're doing and is good at it ! Which is why I chose to get trained at FMU academy , Laura's work is the best hands down I wouldn't be where I'm at today without FMU academy

I completed the IV Therapy & Blood Withdrawal Certification course at Los Angeles Career College,…read moreand I have to say--this place runs smoother than most hospital floors I've worked on. The staff was organized, check-in was easy, and the hybrid format made the whole process painless (unlike some IV attempts I've witnessed in real life). What really impressed me was how efficient everything was. Once I passed my exam, they handed me my certificate the same day--no waiting, no chasing emails, no mysterious "processing time." Just boom. Certified. I wish everything in healthcare worked that fast. Now for the real highlight: Instructor Steele Erickson. Steele is the kind of nursing instructor you secretly hope for but never expect to get. He breaks down IV therapy and blood withdrawal with such clarity and patience that even tricky techniques suddenly feel manageable. He teaches with a calm, supportive energy that makes everyone relax. He's incredibly knowledgeable, genuinely invested in every student, and somehow keeps the class both educational and entertaining. As someone with 25+ years in healthcare, I can confidently say instructors like Steele do not grow on trees. If you're considering getting your IV Certification, go to Los Angeles Career College and hope you get Steele Erickson as your instructor. You'll walk away confident, competent, and wondering why every nursing class can't be this smooth. Highly recommended!

I took the accelerated CNA course with Mika. I am not going to lie, it was a lot of work, but Mika…read moremade the experience enjoyable. Life got in the way a couple of times during this portion of the class and I was able to talk to Mika and figure out a plan so that I wouldn't have to miss class. I also loved listening to her real life stories of working in nursing. The course I took was 5 weeks, 8 hours a day. The first two weeks were online. There is a lot of reading, a lot of quizzes, and several tests, but you get the hang of it quickly. The second week was practical where you learned the skills. I got pretty frustrated when I didn't get the skill right the first time, but the fact is that there are a lot of steps to the skills and these are brand new things that I'm learning. It all falls into place when you go into the clinical. You get to apply what you learned in class and in your practical learning. I especially loved my clinical rotations at the hospital. It gave me such a bigger perspective on the healthcare industry and patient care. I learned so much and discovered that I really liked working in ER. I look forward to applying everything I learned in my future career.
