Chamberlain University-California

What are the popular events and traditions at Chamberlain University-California?

Chamberlain's most relevant ceremonial events for nursing students are graduation and nursing recognition activities, such as pinning ceremonies where scheduled. A nursing pinning ceremony marks completion of professional preparation; it is distinct from licensure, which requires meeting board requirements and passing the NCLEX-RN.

The campus may also schedule orientation, student activities, and community-service events during the year. Prospective students should consult the Rancho Cordova events calendar for current dates and eligibility rather than assuming that a university-wide ceremony or activity takes place locally every term.

What are the student housing and dining options at Chamberlain University-California?

Chamberlain University-California does not provide college-owned or college-operated undergraduate housing. Students must arrange their own place to live and plan for commuting to campus and assigned clinical locations.

There is consequently no campus residence-hall placement to secure as part of admission, and applicants should not assume a residential meal plan or dining hall is included in their costs. When comparing housing options, nursing students should account for the travel time and transportation costs associated with both regular classes and clinical shifts.
