@Charliesch - I asked Mark Covin at UCLA why only 40 traditional BSN students a year & he said the graduate program gets more funding than the BSN. They do have a RN to BSN program but I do not have any details on how many students are enrolled in that. Your comment about the number of UCLA grads would not even meet their own medical center needs made me curious & I looked up the stats on the UCLA Healthcare site. Ronald Reagon - UCLA Med. Cntr in Westwood is 520 beds & UCLA Med Cntr in Santa Monica is 266 beds - almost 800 beds combined. I don’t know where they get thier nurses from. UCLA advertises for RN positions in Nurseweek & Working Nurse which are national publications so they recruit across the U.S.
