The continuing education scholarship is a type of financial aid award that’s specifically designed to help students pay for the costs of continuing their education. At Angeles Institute, this applies to students who have either: transitioned into the LVN program after completing the CNA program here, transitioned into the LVN program after completing a CNA program elsewhere within the last 5 years, or by referral from a current employee at one of our active clinical sites, or a family member/friend that’s an active/current grad student from Angeles Institute.
The Amalia Diaz Scholarship is meant to expand access to financial aid assistance for those who qualify under the California Dream Act. Passed into law by Governor Jerry Brown in 2011, the California Dream Act provides the opportunity for undocumented citizens in California to have access to financial aid when pursuing higher education. To learn more about the California Dream Act, and its qualifications, please use this link: California Dream Act FAQ. For more information regarding eligibility on the Amalia Diaz Scholarship, please reference the qualifications on the scholarship form.
Scholarships are an important source of funding for many students, particularly those who may not have the financial resources to pay for college on their own. Scholarships can help students cover the cost of tuition, books, and other expenses, allowing them to focus on their studies and pursue their academic and career goals.
The NCLEX Review scholarship is a form of financial aid that’s awarded to students who successfully complete their NCLEX review, and achieve a Pass on their first try of the NCLEX Exam. For more information, please review the scholarship form.

Scholarships for nursing students can play an important role in promoting accessibility, diversity, and innovation in the nursing profession. By providing financial support to qualified students, scholarships can help to ensure that the nursing workforce is well-prepared to meet the healthcare needs of the future.
The academic scholarship/grant is a type of financial aid award that’s given to students based on their academic achievements. These scholarships/grants are typically awarded to recognize students who have excelled in their studies and demonstrated a strong ability to succeed in the program. Academic scholarships/grants may be awarded per term via the Honor Roll Achievement scholarship, or the Making Education Affordable Grant. At the minimum, both require a strong cumulative GPA, and completion of the term in order to qualify. For other qualifications, please review the scholarship form.
Our post-licensure course program was designed to provide Method 3 Applicants the opportunity to earn their Diploma after successfully completing their Method 3 process and securing their Nursing Licensure. The main benefit of earning a diploma post-licensure is to ensure that you are able to transfer your license from state to state in the future. It also ensures our alumni are able to transfer to RN bridge programs that require the official diploma for entry.
The cost associated with this program is $1000, half of which must be paid to begin, and the other half of which must be paid before the diploma is released. The course includes an online review program via Canvas which must be completed in 5 weeks. If you are interested in signing up for the program please submit your student service request with a copy of your license information and our Financial Aid team will contact you regarding payment.

Non-Graduate status: It is so important to us that we offer our students an option to help them achieve their goal of becoming a licensed vocational nurse regardless of their graduate status and that is why we offer assistance and instruction to help you apply for eligibility to take your NCLEX.
Please be advised that Angeles Institute will not cover any fees associated with testing or licensure incurred after selecting this option.
Once you have completed and submitted your application to us we will process and submit it to the BVNPT according to our quarterly application processing schedule. We submit applications quarterly with no exceptions for missed deadlines so please ensure that you are submitting ALL documents related to your application promptly and together. Note that applications received after the deadline will be sent out next quarter (this will cause a mandatory 3-month delay in the processing of your application). If you have questions about when the next deadline is, contact us in Student Affairs.
Current Students: We will not be meeting with students to discuss this option unless they have withdrawn or been dropped from the program as we are not in any way encouraging students to drop out of school to pursue this option. It is very important to note that these applications are approved on a case-by-case basis by the BVNPT and there are no rigid criteria for what is acceptable so there is always a possibility you may not be granted approval.

The purpose of Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) equivalency in California is to provide an alternate pathway for individuals to become eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) or the National Council Licensure Examination for Licensed Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN) without completing a nursing program.
In California, individuals who have completed a nursing program that is not approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN) or the Board of Vocational Nursing and Psychiatric Technicians (BVNPT), or who have completed a foreign nursing program, may apply for CNA equivalency. This program allows individuals to demonstrate their nursing skills and knowledge by completing an approved CNA training program and passing a CNA competency exam.
Once an individual has obtained CNA equivalency, they may apply to take the NCLEX-RN or NCLEX-PN and become licensed as a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse in California. However, it is important to note that CNA equivalency does not guarantee eligibility for licensure and individuals must still meet all other licensure requirements set by the BRN or BVNPT.
Overall, CNA equivalency is an important pathway for individuals who have completed nursing programs that do not meet California's standards for nursing education to demonstrate their nursing skills and knowledge and become eligible for licensure as registered nurses or licensed practical nurses.
Appeals meetings can be crucial for readmission because they provide an opportunity for students who have been dismissed or denied admission from a college or university to present their case and explain why they should be readmitted.
Here at Angeles Institute we believe offering students the opportunity to submit a reasonable accommodation request is important because it promotes inclusion, ensures equal opportunities, reduces discrimination, increases productivity, and fosters innovation. These meetings may help to demonstrate why the student is capable of succeeding academically and should be readmitted. Appeals meetings can provide students with a second chance to demonstrate their academic potential and commitment to success and can help to ensure that readmission decisions are fair and equitable.
Job placement assistance is an important part of our vocational nursing program, as it helps individuals transition from school into the workforce. Job placement assistance is intended to help individuals find meaningful employment as well as gain valuable skills and experience in the process. This assistance gives our alumni a better chance of finding a job in their desired specialty and also helps them build a strong network of contacts. Job placement assistance also helps individuals learn how to write resumes and cover letters, how to conduct themselves in an interview, and how to create a professional portfolio. Additionally, job placement assistance often includes helpful resources such as job fairs and online job postings, as well as advice on how to negotiate salary and benefits with potential employers. Overall, job placement assistance can be a great benefit to individuals looking to make a successful transition into the workforce.If you wish to schedule an appointment to meet with our placement team to discuss your job prospects or resume please reach out to our Student Affairs Team at: studentaffairs@angelesinstitute.edu

LinkedIn is an invaluable tool for nurses and healthcare professionals to network with each other and create meaningful connections. By joining LinkedIn, nurses can build their professional networks, connect with industry leaders, and find job opportunities. Through the platform, nurses can share their professional experiences, learn about new developments in healthcare, and develop relationships with other nurses and health professionals. Additionally, nurses can join LinkedIn Groups to discuss relevant topics and share best practices. LinkedIn is also a great way for nurses to find mentors, expand their knowledge base, and stay up to date with current trends in the industry. Finally, LinkedIn allows nurses to create a personal brand to promote their skills and accomplishments, making networking easier and more effective. Here are some resources to help get you started.
