Respiratory Therapy Program Brochure
Introduction
This course equips aspiring Respiratory Therapists with the foundational knowledge, skills, and professional attitudes needed for interactions with various Healthcare Disciplines including the Clinical laboratory settings. Through hands-on practice, instructor guidance, and a clinical practicum, students build confidence in Respiratory Therapy techniques. The Bakersfield College Respiratory Therapy Program (RTP) is designed to educate and train students for entry level practice, obtain an Associate of Science degree, be eligible to take the national exams and work in a structured health care setting. Students must complete pre-requisite coursework before applying to the program. It is the minimum expectation that program participants will work toward the program goal.
Mission
The mission of the respiratory therapist education program is to prepare students to become competent, compassionate, and highly skilled healthcare professionals who specialize in cardiopulmonary care. These programs aim to develop proficiency across three key domains:
- Cognitive (Knowledge): Equip students with a deep understanding of respiratory anatomy, physiology, pathology, and therapeutic interventions.
- Psychomotor (Skills): Train students in hands-on clinical procedures such as airway management, mechanical ventilation, and diagnostic testing.
- Affective (Behavior): Foster professional behavior, ethical decision-making, and effective communication within interdisciplinary healthcare teams.
Recommended Courses
MEDS B37: Medical Terminology - course is strongly recommended prior to completion of BIOL courses
Pre-requisite Requirements

* This requirement can be fulfilled by completion of MEDS B52.
Assessment Tests
All conditionally accepted students and alternates will be required to take the ATI TEAS exam, a state approved nursing assessment test. The ATI TEAS is not a pre-requisite to the Bakersfield College RTP program, however it is a requirement to secure an offered seat in the program. Students need to study and test using the ATI TEAS, 7th edition, as earlier editions are no longer accepted. Bakersfield College students can look into a free study guide made available through the Student Success Lab-CSS 143. Students must rank at or above 62% on their first attempt on the ATI TEAS exam to be eligible for admission into the program. Students not meeting the criteria will be offered a remediation program. If students have already taken and passed the current version of the exam, they are not required to retake the exam if passed.
Remediation Program
Students who do not meet the ATI TEAS Score of 62%, will be considered eligible for enrollment into the RNP Program ONLY upon successful completion of the remediation courses listed below. These courses MUST be completed within 12 months from the initial application date to the RNP Program. Failure to meet this requirement would result in ineligibility. For those students with a prior 1st attempt TEAS that do not meet this requirement, contact Educational Advisors for further instruction: Olly Garcia Beltran: alejandra.garciabeltran@bakersfieldcollege.edu, or Luz Vega: luz.vega@bakersfieldcollege.edu.
- ACDV B70 A through F Series — Study Skills with a “P” (passing grade)
- NURS B30 — Pathophysiology (or equivalent course) with a “B” or higher - may be taken off campus
- Purchase the ATI Testing Basic Package study guide-provide copy of transcript reflecting time spent studying and multiple attempts at pre-test and post-test scores — a minimum of 6 weeks of study time must be documented to meet requirement
*Once remediation has been completed, students must retake the ATI TEAS at any of the approved test sites AND achieve a score of at least 62% to be considered eligible to re-apply. If the retake score is less than 62%, the student is no longer eligible for the RN program.

Application Selection Process
The program utilizes a blended combination of multi-criteria selection AND a random lottery. Seventy five percent (75%) of the available seats will be filled by applicants with the highest ranking score using the Multi-Criteria Point Allocation Form. All other eligible applicants will be placed in a random lottery to fill the remaining twenty five percent (25%).
Veterans
Veterans with previous experience/education should refer to the Military Challenge Advanced Placement Policy to verify how to receive credit for Nursing courses. Eligible Veterans with relevant experience must request an appointment with the Program Director at least eight (8) weeks prior to the application period.
Application Status
The status of applications will be posted on the website on the Respiratory Therapy page under Application Status. Applicants will be notified approximately EIGHT (8)- TEN (10) weeks after the closing date by their student assigned email with one of the following responses:
Eligibility
The application and all supporting documents have been reviewed, and the applicant has met all program requirements.
Conditionally Accepted
Conditionally accepted is the reservation of a seat prior to the ATI TEAS Assessment. Once the top ranked students and random lottery selected students have completed the assessment with a minimum score of 62%, they will then move from conditionally accepted to “officially accepted” in the RTP program. *Intake requirements such as drug screen and background must also be met.
Alternate Status
Alternate students are students who are eligible but are only selected if a seat becomes available for the cohort in which they applied. Alternates will also be asked to complete the TEAS Assessment. Once all alternate applicants have taken the ATI TEAS Assessment, a re-ranking will occur based on their post-TEAS overall score (Multi-criteria + ATI TEAS Score points). Alternates will then be selected based on their ranking order. *Please note that being considered an Alternate does not guarantee selection in future application periods for the Bakersfield College RNP program. If an Alternate applicant is not selected, they must reapply. There is NO waitlist.
Eligible, Not Selected
Your application meets program requirements however; your name was not selected in multi-criteria point allocation and/or random lottery selection for this enrollment period. Applicants who are not selected are encouraged to reapply during the next application period. There is NO waitlist.
Not Eligible/Incomplete
We have reviewed your application, and based on program requirements, your application is not qualified. You will be emailed with further information.

Estimated Program Costs (Gainful Employment)
Students will be required to purchase uniforms, textbooks and selected equipment, provide transportation to off-campus clinical education sites and pay current college fees. See the Estimated Program Costs.
Program Accreditation
Bakersfield College is currently in the process of seeking CoARC accreditation for a respiratory care program. However, Bakersfield College can provide no assurance that accreditation will be granted by the CoARC. Graduation from a respiratory therapist education program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation on Respiratory Care (CoARC) is necessary for eligibility to sit for the licensure examination, which is required in all states.
Licensure/Certification Eligibility
Students with misdemeanor and/or felony convictions may be prevented from receiving certification or licensure from the State. Anyone who would like clarification may contact the Respiratory Care Board (www.rcb.ca.gov )
Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Statement
In accordance with the requirements of the Civil Rights Act, Bakersfield College provides services and benefits to students regardless of race, color, national origin, gender, age, religion, marital status, medical condition, or disability. The lack of English language skills will not be a barrier to administration and participation in vocational education programs. (Title VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972; and Section 503 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.)
