20 Best Rn Programs In Sacramento, CA (2022 Updated)

The staff is very helpful from enrolling to making sure you have everything you need for class. MTI has some of the best teachers around! Every teacher I’ve had so far has been super helpful and understanding and go above and beyond to explain every step of the way so you don’t feel lost. They’re very hands on and invested in every student’s success. When I first came in I felt overwhelmed as to how things would be like but they were all very reassuring. As long as you come to class and pay attention and ask questions there’s no way you can fail!Titus Tinch

BY FAR THE BEST INSTITUTION I HAVE EVER INVESTED MY TIME & ENERGY IN! The moment you walk in for a consultation, the staff will greet you with a smile & positive energy. They are very organized and have great communication skills. If you are lost and need further assistance, the instructors and staff will be there for you. You can most definitely count on them! This is not just a school, this is a community. Much love to ya'll, keep up the good work!Balla Diarra

It is my third week and so far the in person classes have been extremely helpful. I love the campus and staff are extremely friendly. They will go over anything if you don't understand it, even if it is your 4th or 5th time asking. The availability of the teachers ranges according to their own schedule. There are Multiple teachers and instructors to help you out.Richard Saelee

Overall, an okay community college experience so far from 2019 to 2022 (I took some summers off). The registration process for me was a nightmare. OpenCC upon some of the other processes were buggy, nonfunctional, or unclear. Despite this, I have to give them slack as when I was applying they were revamping their websites significantly. There's a mixed bag of good and bad staff. Some professors will be insanely rude, not understanding, and sometimes not even lecture properly on the topic at hand. Other professors will be really kind, understanding, and actively willing to work with you. Always look up the professor on Rate My Professor!!! Eservices, Canvas, and Counseling are atrocious. Eservices has been buggy at times or down for multiple hours. Canvas is usually a decent online learning tool, but sometimes it can get buggy and is not always accessibility friendly (as seen by not having a dark mode for example). I recall a time when Canvas was down due to the host servers, which are owned by Amazon, were completely offline. Counseling is not always helpful in guiding you to where to go next, will sometimes not even answer calls nor emails, and can get really busy (even with the switch from the old building to the Welcome and Support Center). I suggest looking up some information yourself on ARCs website first before talking to counselors, such as course catalogs or what classes you might take for a specific associates degree. I wish that counseling would still give out PHYSICAL course catalogs, but it is what it is. Finance is usually okay for parking passes, but other services is like pulling teeth. Communication on what is going on campus varies from good to poor. An example of this is when the pandemic began around midterms and there was the report of two people being exposed to Covid on campus, which caused mass panic and multiple people just walking out of class. Parking can sometimes be an issue, so be prepared to walk a little bit. Also, you will need a parking pass from a kiosk or buy a parking pass permit for the semester. Bathrooms could use some work. I recall a time where after flushing the bathroom started to flood. Food choices were fairly solid. If you were going to Starbucks or Subway during lunch, lines would get long. Only food offered on campus now is either from the student store, the cafeteria, the Oak Cafe, or the few vending machines on campus. Off campus, there's quite a few food places around, such as Lis Mongolian BBQ, Chik Fil A, and In-N-Out. The bookstore has been unorganized in the past, but is relatively chilled back and clean nowadays. Be warned that some things will be overpriced, but that's normal for college. Also, don't be shocked if there's a hassle with ordered books or book returns for refunds.Emily “Emma Anne” Branecki

It's almost like 90% of the people who work here will be rude over the phone and tell you to do everything online. They have messed up most of my paperwork, resulting in me having to resubmit residency forms, application forms, proof of ID. Somehow they put me as out-of-state which includes a 900% markup per credit. I went from expecting a $150 bill for a single class and ended up with a $1200 bill. No one wants to help sort it out. No one wants to answer the phone. The website is difficult to navigate. Honestly, I have had a single positive experience with one person in Admissions, and everyone else has been pushy, rude, dismissive, and argumentative. I am considering switching to literally any other school in the district. My partner attends SCC and it's laughable how smoothly they handled his transition back to school, compared to mine. Edit: it should also be noted that I had applied to ARC 4 times since 2013 and never received a welcome letter. I had emailed asking why I applied and was not told anything, or emailed, called – nothing. I got no response. Called last month because I was at my wits end and I am told "I can't give you a student ID number because your application was DENIED." I asked why and she told me she couldnt tell me. I asked for a supervisor who immediately told me "we have the wrong SSN for you, so none of your applications were accepted because it didn't watch our records." My CORRECT SSN, was being rejected. In 8 YEARS NO ONE EVER TOLD ME THIS. Just like they didn't tell me I was listed as out of state, despite submitting residency information multiple times. This school is a JOKEI Illyria

The college is great..,.. the bookstore however is 1 star at best. The school district sub-contracted it out and the new facilitators understand that they have a built in market from people having to use their financial aid or other assorted vouchers from various Govt entities and as a result they practice poor customer service utilizing people that are quite adept at rapid fire litanies telling you why none of the delays or shortages are their concern or problem. In fact in my opinion 90% of their employees that deal with the public are nothing more than thugs and bully's. They take no responsibility for faulty instructions in how to use the new book site with vouchers and tell you that they are "saaaawrrrrry" when they tell you they can't locate your books and give you a date when they will be in. Once again, in my opinion, they are nothing more than petty tyrants and bullies that should have their contract terminated for lack of accountability on their part. The layout has changed,alot of the const of the past couple of years is finished. Check updated maps of Campus on Google 😎Greg Spittler

Fantastic school and wonderful people: friendly, supportive, and dedicated to training physicians and professionals of the highest caliber! Unlike many (if not most) medical schools, UCDavis is dedicated to diversity and serving the entire Californian community – not just in word, but in deed.Carlos Scott Lopez

It looks absolutely beautiful. I hope so much that I could come and study here as I am doing medicine. This is honestly my dream building. It's just an incredible place.Zac Jimenez

Great place to go after you want to find out about me newest medical advances. And Capital One resources for dealing with cancer or chemo related problems.Ellis Weber

They treat their students like garbage. Very judgmental staff and instructors. They tried to kick me out of the school because the vending machine ate my money and I tried to get the item. They lie and fabricate stories to drop you. I was signed up for a weekly zoom meeting that I wasn't told about and they told my instructors and staff that I never signed up and was rude over the phone. None of that happened. All I ever did was work hard and kept quiet but was told that I yelled in a classroom once?? They couldn't provide any proof. Weird and bizarre staff that goes behind your back yet smiles to your face. I commute over an hour to get here and work late night hours I don't deserve that treatment and am disappointed and ashamed of the staff here. Definitely wouldn't recommend to anyone unless you want to be discriminated against the whole time. Terrible experience Update: an instructor named Bruce Weaver told me to leave because I was wearing shorts and go home and change because it wasn't dress code. On a day that was 105 degrees. This guy is a complete joke and is a terrible instructorGoron Saki

My experience at Asher College has honestly been the most successful I've been at any level of education previously. The Instructors they assign to us and the way in which we are allowed to pursue knowledge, be it through reading or lectures or hands on trail and error, make not just learning the information possible, but guaranteed! I honestly believe this College has a system that adapts to its individual students and that combined with the motivational and friendly environments they create, make this the BEST and MOST SUCCESSFUL Education experience I've ever had! 10/10 would recommend!Cam2Koo

I never expected to learn so much before attending Asher College. The Instructors and administration are some of the greatest people I've ever met; no matter how busy they are, they will never let you feel unimportant. The instructors are knowledgeable and the administrative staff are so very helpful. I attended this school during a hard time and I felt nothing but care from all. They enjoy seeing you succeed and have an inspiring passion for teaching. THANK YOU for giving me such an enriching learning experience.Chris Agnew

I attended UEI last year. My program was medical billing and insurance coding. I want to thank my professor Mr. Bruce, for not giving up on, always pushed me to succeed even when I felt I was asking questions in the class when I felt no question was too small or too big because he answered all my questions. I would also like to thank Ms. Ebony who was always there from a shoulder to cry on and a great role model to look up to she was the one that gave me the push and motivation that i Needed to present my assignment to my class assignment. I would also like to thank Ms. Belinda for the great opportunity to work as a student worker after losing my job as a preschool teacher. When I first started everyone was so nice and welcoming and I was happy that I was able to eat to meet everyone. I started my program in April 2021 and my program End on January 2022 . I feel like UEI is not the same anymore because it is harder to get in contact with anyone and you will get the run around for example while on my extern at UEI my grandmother was I admitted to the hospital my only wish was for her to see my walk across the stage Even if that meant my mom recording s so my grandma can see me walk across the stage Unfortunately with graduation day changing my grandmother passed away before my graduation. I am happy that i joined uei because i was able to meet new humble outstanding down to earth people . If you do decide to join uei do not loose you’re focus and let drama distract you from your main goal get your your education and leave.Cassandra Bonner

I decided to try this school, only went a couple times and during that time they let go off my teacher and when the tablet they gave me was messing up they said they would fix it and give it back. I had asked for help on how he was gonna continue online classes they were no help. So I decided this wasn’t the school for me. I called to drop the classes and they said that would be okay. Hadn’t heard from them in months til I randomly get a text welcoming to “my first day” and it wasn’t til I received an email asking me to pay my first payment did I call them and try to ask what was going on. Get some info on why this was happening. While on the phone with them they were very unprofessional, instead of just answering my questions and moving on they made it seem like I was a burden that I wanted to see what was going on. Got transferred to another woman, she tells me something then hangs up on me. I call back and even the main desk hangs up on me. Call again and sends me to a voicemail system like how unprofessional can you guys be! You guys are supposed to be about helping and making your students succeed but when it really comes down to it. That’s all lies. If I could give this school no stars I would.Briezzy Bby

Stay away from this school….ghetto, unprofessional, and a BIG waste of time and money. GO TO CARRINGTON or a different more professional school!! Half of the staff here has quit, they are extremely unorganized, school is overpriced for the education you are given, there were fights every week in the medical assistant program as if it were a middle school or even high school. Graduation was held in a parking lot because I assume they waited to long to book a venue, certification at the end is not a real degree its a thin piece of paper and looks extremely corny to the point my employer made fun of it. Not sure where this tuition money goes but for $19,900 I would expect better certification, a real graduation ceremony, and tools such as books, computers, programs that allow you to practice medical billing etc not a $72 kindle and books that can't leave the classroom. Also keep in mind compared to Carrington and MTI who only has 150 externship hours, UEI requires 250 hours for the medical billing department. Almost $20,000 I could have saved and got a real education through a real college.Czerina B.

I'll give 3 stars for the overall hands-on exam experience. I won't recommend the RQI to everyone. Maybe it is better to get the instructor lead course. RQI (Resuscitation Quality Improvement) tests your skills with a VAM (Voice Assisted Manikin). I'm 5'8'' and this was a horrendous experience. I could not raise the bed to perfume the CPR or I at least I did not see any instruction on how to do so. In relation to the table, I was either too tall or too short. Even the stool was doing little to assist. During the rescue breathing it became more difficult. The space is too tiny, or the setup was put up incorrectly. The adult manikin's head was pointing toward the cabinet. While crouched to provide rescue breathing, I could barely function between the bed and the cabinet. I strongly advise them to relocate the table to the center of the room rather than the corner. By the way, it was difficult to comprehend and follow the audio instructions. And I suppose that's why so many people fail the test 4-5 times before passing it, because with that kind of teaching, you're just stunned right there. Seriously, how could I get out of that cramped space into CPR position in less than 5 seconds unless I threw the mask on the floor on my way to the table? If I did, the next time I had to perform rescue breathing, I'd have to hunt for the mask on the floor first, which would take longer than 5 seconds!Ramsey Alizadeh

I took CPR/BLS training today for the first time ever and the instructor, Wendy Simmons, was very informative and humorous. She gave a lot of great tips and tricks that are easy to remember and my classmates were helpful as well. Also, the class environment followed COVID safety guidelines and felt safe. It didn't take very long to receive the certification – I received it on the same day I took the class. I like that they send text reminders about when your training is and how easy it is to navigate their website for information. I will be coming back to renew my certification in 2 years. Thank you!April Rubio

The instructor is experienced and efficient. The instructor was clear in her communication and was very supportive and gave good instructions in proper method and depth in performing the CPR. Overall, i would recommend this company in providing BLS certifications, whether for first time, for certification renewal, with group or individual learning, or for personal reasons, a grear place to earn your American Heart Association BLS certification.Gerald Garcia

My LOVE for the ultrasound program at Gurnick is way beyond. – from the teachers to the challenging curriculum. All the faculty members of sonography program integrates with compassion into their teaching standards, emphasizes the importance of values, and builds leaders through each of their classes and lessons. Sonography program is not an easy program. You have to be passionate about working in this field with patient care and being proactive. It’s takes a lot of hard work and dedication and determination. The director and the professor’s made sure that each of us are successful in this program. Though it is a private school, I had to work hard for this program and be successful And every member from financial aid to coordinators to front desk made sure that we all are given help and guidance when we need it. Teachers are passionate about seeing their students succeed. They are so great about sharing moments of pride they see within us. I love my ultrasound program at Gurnick. Let’s keep on scanning with love.Rehnaz Bi

Definitely would recommend this school. I am a current student in the ultrasound program and I have gained so much knowledge for the time I have been there thus far. Instructors go above and beyond to make sure the material is taught well and share new skills to make sure we are the best at our jobs, for ourselves and our patients. Jorge, the program director is always finding diverse techniques to make learning a fun experience. The curriculum is awesome as well as the environment. I went in not knowing what I looking at on a “black and white screen” and now I can point out all of the anatomy as well as complete diagnostic exams. If you’re interested, I definitely recommend speaking to Jorge, he always puts the student’s best interests first!Jassamyn Shergill

I am a current Ultrasound student at Gurnick Academy and I am pleased with my decision to apply to this program. This is NOT an easy program, it will challenge you in many ways. However, you are given plenty of support and resources to help you succeed. I have yet to have a day where we are not able to practice scanning, which is very impressive compared to other programs. All instructors are experienced sonographers that set clear expectations for student performance. The director of the Ultrasound Program, Jorge, will go above and beyond for his students while preparing us for the field and anything it may throw at us. I would recommend this program to anyone looking for a serious and successful career in ultrasound.Olivia Smith

Nice and new building. Ada compliant with nice main room for studying and hanging out. Nice restrooms and water fountain with water bottle refill. Nice and advanced classrooms with lots of new technologySharon Cohen

Called to ask a simple question and the operator couldn't understand me so she acted like she couldn't hear me. When I told her I was on a landline phone, she started to answer me but gave me a bunch of random answers. I finally asked to speak to someone else, her excuse was everyone is busy. I had to hang up and call the main campus. Please have someone that can understand English work the phones. By the way, the question was "If I have someone go pay my class fees, do they only need my student id number." when I called main, the question was answered right away. English is also my second language. Not bagging on anyone but don't beat around the bush.james phan

Staff answering phone calls very unprofessional, not looking to help. I was trying to schedule an appointment to meet a counselor and was put on "hold" numerous times only to have the call disconnected on the other end. When finally connected after having to call back numerous times lady had a horrible rude tone and basically said she can't do anything to help me. Like I don't need you to help me, i need a counselor….Manveer Sangha

Worst counseling’s people and staff. They had so much attitude. I had appointment I came 15-20 mins late because of it was raining and also hard to find the location. They could not help me.Vikash Kumar

Had things going on after over a year going here, decided to drop before the next semester begins to avoid paying for a semester i wont be there for. Called the school talked to admin/Gi bill rep told her I wanted to drop immediately, tried to talk me out of but it I told her i was for sure, then I asked if it was done and I was good, she said yeah. Before I hung up she asked if I could come in to sign some papers, I said no problem but I stressed that the drop needed to take place before the next semester started. Showed up a few days later assuming I was going to sign a paper and leave, asked the clerks for the form and found out that nothing was done and it was a lie to get me to show up. I told her how important it was that I drop before the semester started but the drop hadn't taken place and by that time it was too late, was a $2000 ordeal. After I lost my chance to drop before the semester I tried to make it work but the very reason I was trying to leave ended up happening. It's unfortunate it ended this way. Other notes: School has no problem changing major policies half way through your year, if you feel like your safe because you signed a contract with them there is also a arbitration clause where they pay for their guy to mediate your issues with them. This also prohibits going to court and puts the students in a position where its the school and their choice of mediator who they pay for VS the student. Saw alot of student's who were damaged from the changes and didn't get anywhere. Also school has policy which after completing 60% of your class then you will owe for the rest of the year, so no dropping after that point, just something to look out for so make sure you read all the paperwork cause there is alot of it. Electrical and HVAC teachers are good guys. And many of the staff are helpful people though there are many policies that students don't hear about until it is too late which can put people out.Kevin M

I went to this so-called "school" about four years ago. The financial aid woman totally lied to me about the loan, I was supposed to get some back but apparently she pocketed it herself. And then, they charged me $1,200.00 payable to the school! They said if I paid it, I'd get my diploma and whatever else I needed as proof that I attended the school with great marks. The instructor we had, Mike {cannot recall last name} was totally awesome, a rare individual who really cared and was pretty easy-going. His lectures were very good, his style was just right and the "role play" was pretty cool. Unfortunately he was terminated, as a school rep reported to me when I asked: "It is not our policy to…yada yada yada." All in all they failed me; there was NO help in finding a job, there was NO desire, on their point to help with the job-find part of the deal. I had to find my own damn extern site!! In total, this school sucks. They should have their accreditation checked into, they should be examined for faulty financial aid service, they should examine each employee, especially the financial aid people, to see if they are embezzling from the financial aid being given the students. They're simply a bunch of liars, the "counselors" regardless what they say, are paid a commission for each person they bring in as a student; thus the "bright eyes" lies of the counselors. BEWARE of this school, it isn't what they say it is.rob 56bob

Don’t sign up unless you want to waste your time Listening to these teachers life stories. Learning little to nothing and getting racist remarks said to you then almost getting the cops called on you because somehow your a menace to the school because you put your head down on the table according to some old man that doesn’t know how to open a book and teach the students what we need to learn…most days you go home with no notes and nothing to take home and study the MA class only has 2 or 3 students and the teacher is lazy and unhelpful and a racist And once said to the whole class that she truly believes all Mexicans are good at is making babies. Don’t recommend this school at all and decided to leave and attend a more professional pregitist school… this is a scripted school which will make you believe it’s hard to get in when it’s actuallly really easy some teachers are cool principal is cool and this guy Tom is cool but in majority there’s a lot of stuck up people there snotty kids who think they know it all when half of the time they’re just tryna sound smart I recommend going to ARC instead!Jonny Tang

Was excited at first. Went to the campus tour took my whole family  was going to be an exciting chapter in my life  my parents and I  made a lot of sacrifices  and saved up a good amount  money for housing and for the school itself. Did not want to drive back and fourth everday.  everything  seemed fine at first seeing  all the different  areas friendly staff(seemed like they were putting up a show) but once it got to the point of how the class was going to be paid qualify  for a money loan or program.. etc to  make the story short we followed it along.   And i did not qualify  for niether i dont even think he tried. I was committed  me and my parents had the money for if this happened. (Was not going to take a 2hr drive for nothing) but once the guide told me and my parents  "do guys have a rich family  member or sombody that can lend you the money" his exact words. We felt  discriminated.  We had the money   me and my family ask the rep if he can give us a couple minutes to think about it. Which  at that point we respectfully  walked away. Thank him for the tour.   I cried the way home  this is what me and my parents  were saving up for the past 3yrs. To pay my shcool and housing.  Opened up a family  business  with the money me and mostly parents  saved up.    Best decision  of my life.  All they care about is your money.  And i felt like they discrimated me and  my family.    They just want your money one way or another.  Im not saying there a bad school just the way they aproached  things its all about money.Jesse R

the new blackboard update is terrible, the school over all is a good experience, but some of us drive hours away and work full time just to get by, going to the school is great but the blackboard update as off 7/18/22 ruined every time we are expected to be online for 2 hours but with the update And it being so slow I’ve been working all day just to get home and nothing loads, called support multiple times due to instructors sending you home if lab videos aren’t watched this school is not for someone that is already stretched for time they pride them selfs on 3 hour days but after waiting for every video to load and play your waiting 7-8 hours in total now imagine working full time for 8 hours that’s 16 right there in a day to wake up and drive two hours they need to down grade black board it worked better before and where able to play videos at a higher speed though they can argue nobody learned because students where skipping videos the ILT in class filled up for it you learn everything u need to know without being onlineTyler Paul

Im a diesel graduate and when I called to retake the course to refresh on the information thoroughly, I was promised the "course is free after you graduate." Well when I tried calling the school, one of the representatives told me I should just apply to jobs, but what I told him was that I been told by employers that they dont like to hire UTI students/grads because of the bad reputation they have. Also when you apply out in the real world most of these jobs require you to have outside school experience because the school experience to them means nothing, so my question to UTI is, if you really care about your reputation and your students, why dont you help them excel a little more? Offer them the most knowledge, out of this HIGH tuition rate school.Alejandro Cisneros

I graduated here in 2011. Now 11 years later I still have mixed feelings. You should go to this school only if you absolutely must stay in Sacramento. If you’re recruited from another country for a sport, please note that Sacramento is the capitol of California but it’s 8 hours driving from Hollywood and nothing like the movies. Many of my tennis teammates came from Eastern Europe and said they had no clue, they thought they were coming to do college at the beach and hang out with celebrities. Pros +: Air Force ROTC Program Women’s D1 Tennis Very pretty campus in Fall People were genuinely nice The saaaandwich and soda man Acceptance rate was very high then Gave me the degree and future I needed Cons -: Was very much commuter school Most friends you make here won’t go very far Dating was limited (for straight women) most boys I met were just players that lied No one outside of NorCal has heard of CSUS Parking was an issue Full time in state tuition for Spring 2008 was $1863. My last semester in Spring 2011 was $2500 for part time. Can’t imagine what it is now. Professors who write their own notes/book then sell it for their course for $200+ Some of the courses I had to take were not very useful I didn’t feel safe after or before dark on campus and nearby apartment parking lots that friends lived in. I used to run in the dark to/from my car.April B

One of the many, proud students who used to go to Sac State; graduated in the fall of 2019 (and luckily before Covid-19 told everyone to screw off). I was trying to get into Graphic Design but I had no money. So I opted instead for a BA in Studio Art Methods (New Media Focus). I was taking Multicultural Studies on the side. Everything is expensive, some of the faculty have personality issues, the few Alt-Right people kept "yelling theater in a crowded fire house;" the school's transit system doesn't go far enough, and some of the buildings had issues with rain water coming through the roofs. But I have no regrets. The area's beautiful, we're able to get help with food and studies, the learning of other cultures was "colorful" in a positive way, and most of the faculty are pretty awesome. It's not UC Davis, but I highly recommend taking your chances here.Hectotane

I went here on my Field Trip in my Sophomore year and I got to say I was speechless. I was amazed by the structure of the buildings, there was bunch of scholars/students of this University and it was so big that I didn't know what kind of reaction I made. It was fun walking around and seeing so many people. It feel kind of weird because I don't like to see so many people in one place. The cafeteria is pretty small. It crowded most of the time because I can't believe they even have fast food restaurants inside a cafeteria and also Starbucks. It feel like I can reach the top of the ceiling over my head if I was tall enough and be able to touch it. I enjoyed it and it was fantastic to experience a University college.Cheesy 24

If you’re looking for a starting point in your nursing career as a CNA…. this is the place to go. Nurse Joanyett and her team equips you with confidence and knowledge prior to entering any skilled nursing facility. Her door is always open. With a small class size, you’re able to create a unique relationship with your instructor and receive immediate feedback. Nurse Joanyett wants you to succeed and if you want to become a CNA, put in the effort, you’ll be one (: 6 out of 5 stars, easilyCydney Byrd

I had the best experience getting my degree at the Jessup online school. I love being able to work at my own pace to complete my degree. Instead of B.S. degree taking the 4 full years, I was able to complete in 3 years!Stephanie Lindsey

I was very impressed with my experience. Getting my bachelors degree was one of my goals I never thought I could achieve. Now, I have it and they helped me find a job immediately after!Liam Wilson

I am sharing a personal observation that Cosumnes River College and illegally violated the law by showing discrimination and prejudice against people with lawful medical excemptions. The names of the employees who violated Robert Rincons rights to attend in person learning and excluded him from their learning environment in violation of law are: Associate Vice-President of Student Services Tadael Emiru, RTVF Instructor Lauren Wagner and Admissions staff of Cosumnes River College. The above employees have violated Robert Rincons right to attend in person learning free from discrimination and prejudice. Robert Rincon is fully vaccinated against the Covid-19 virus. He is a student at this college has a right to attend in person learning per the Civil Rights act, ADA, Federal and State backed law that any person with a disability shall not be discriminated against. Robert Rincon has a signed Doctor's medical exemption from wearing face coverings due to his unique medical situation of having drop down seizures therefore he can not wear a mask. Robert Rincon has a right to attend in person college and not be treated differently because of his seizures medical condition. He has a huge following on social media, and many advocates willing to stand up for Robert's and any person with a legal and medical exemption. I respectfully request Robert Rincon be reinstated to his in person classes immediately per the Federal and State law requirements. Robert is entitled to a appropriate education and be in class amongst his peers. He should be reinstated to in person immediately. This college has no right to choose and pick which law they will abide by. Please return Robert Rincon to in person learning immediately!M Marie

Took a summer course at a Los Rios College. I then decided to take courses at CRC. Their policy says you don't get funded for a class if it isn't required in your major. It seemed dire when I heard this. I reached out to and spoke with someome who was cool, in my opinion he cared about resolving my dilemma. A supervisor explained to me the school policy. She also said a counselor may be able to override this mishap. Thing is counselors are booked. Miraculously someone from the school reached out via phone I write this in hopes to spread some awareness. Good luck & God Bless.Victor Rodriguez

Overally most of instructors and staff of this college and other branches of Los Rios need to see a psychologist and psychiatrist because they are enjoying via harassing and abusing students. Although there are rarely a few good and healthy persons available among them. As myself, finally I will go through from this period but I will never forget these sick people. I guarantee that this is a fair rating that I have given to these colleges.The Persica

Great 22 day CNA class. I learned so much in such a short time. The teacher is excellent and I just passed my certification test. THANK YOU!!!Tommy P

Very lucrative type of college, they do not care about students. They only care about the money, they were ordered to pay back millions of dollars for their deceptive practices. As a veteran, my advice is for you to research and know where your money will be spent. It's all about the money.Caro Quintero

Overall this college is what you make it. You have to put in the work if you want to have a degree. The only issue I have is a lot of times with the team assignments you end up doing other team members portions of the work at the last minute to ensure that you get a good grade!David S

I am a Phoenix. I liked the support from staff, the relationships I built and the Learning modalities. My word of advice is…apply for as many scholarships as possible while you are a student!Deanna Vestal

Came in to todays orientation 4/18/22. my review is for the gentleman who runs the "registration" area. not only was he very unprofessional but he was also very rude. as I was filling out the application he was helping a couple other girls who came in to drop off payment. he started counting the money and halfway through gave up and said "I trust you". He was trying to multitask and was failing miserably, he kept giving me multiple of the same forms, mixing up student files. what really did it for me is when he took a copy of my social and ID he had forgotten about it until he had to make a new copy then he pulled out my social and was confused asking "who's is this" I told him it was mine multiple times, he proceeded to show my ID and social to two different students asking if it was there's. I finally had to raise my voice and say it was mine once again. I consider that to be a huge violation of privacy. I ended up getting my "application" and copies and walked out. As I was walking out now of the ladies tried to stop me and say "its ok just go into orientation you can fill that out later". this place seems very unorganized and lacks privacy. I saw a class of students trying to do some of their exercises from where I was sitting,. how can you teach a class with all that foot work distraction? I will be looking for a professional place, this "school" sadly lacks it.grisel barrera

This place is located at a shady area but don’t hesitate to go talk to Mr. Frank. This program is 100% real and I graduated with my CNA certification in May 2022. The total cost is only $1,200 and is the cheapest in Sacramento. They have payment plans and you’ll just have to pay the total before graduation day. If you can, ask for Mrs. Dolly as your instructor. She knows what she’s doing and will prepare you for the state exam. She teaches the morning class and can be harsh at time. However, that will only help you to become better. It might seem overwhelming at first but study, study, study to pass. Also, it’s only 21 days to complete this program. Definitely worth taking this and I’m planning to do my LVN next. Just wanted to say thank you to Mrs. Dolly, Mr. Frank and Mrs. Maggie. The photo attached was my graduation day.MoonChild

Hands down the best cna program in the Sacramento area. I have been to two different programs and SacMed can not compare to CenterPointe. If you want to learn the curriculum with a teacher that truly cares for her students, CenterPointe is where it's at. When you actually start working, knowing your stuff is huge. Trust me when I say CenterPointe is worth a lot more than what they charge. Sign up, it'll change your life.Eryc Schell

Now when I tell you, you get what you pay for. This school is a prime example of why you should NEVER let the price sway you. If you can deal with an unorganized, VERY unprofessional DON (which is why the staff act the way they do, except Ms.CHRISTINA CURRY!) Principle who is judge mental, teach yourself up to 8 chapter exams with RARE skills lab and hands on and SELF STUDY (which means come in and READ ALL DAY FOR 8H. This is everyday just about by the way) and RETAIN all of that information to test on in the next two day's, Not enough clinical places even though this program has been around for years! Even when we do go to clinical we are more CNA's and help then LPN students! If they do not allow us on the cart, we will stand around for HOURS doing non LPN work! The DON is very much aware of this and yet we still go to these places! Pay for your on graduation and nursing pins even though the tuition is 20k plus. This is definitely the place for you!LaSasha Jackson

And many more don't hesitate places like these have resources available and If you put forth work there willing to help and never be afraid to say you need helpStena Stafford

The Pharmacy Tech program teaching staff will definitely prepare you for a career in the medical field. After completing the program externship, I was offered an opportunity to work at one of the Sutter hospitals. Being a certified PT is a rewarding experience in helping people who are sick. A wide variety of job opportunities working as a Tech in hospital, retail, government and private industry. Save your money and attend Charles A Jones Skills Center. It is definitely worth your time and pocket book! Good luck!Julie Ota

The "poor man's Sac State." But it's still expensive. Los Rios is clamping down on those who think Financial Aid is "easy money." So don't get lazy. Most of the teacher/professors there are understanding of the subject and know what they're doing. The ones I met are truly honest. And it's best not to go into a running battle with any of them. Best of all; it's not like those scams you get when you go to those for-profit, so-called "private colleges." You'll know what you're getting and you'll know what to do with them. If I didn't tap out on my finances, I'd go back and get another certificate.Hectotane

Spent 5 semesters here. I had a great time and never had a problem with any of the students or staff. With the exception of one English professor who is not great at teaching in my opinion. I feel that the programs and counselors (Ken in particular) really did a great job of setting me up with a solid plan to take the classes I needed in order to transfer to a university.Five star California

I went to sac City college Los Rios community colleges. No complaints I was hard-headed and young then the passwords flying colors and graduated with a judicial doctorate degree. I appreciate all my professors. Darryl Lee Johnson Jr.Darryl Johnson
