Attending Chamberlain was the best thing that happened to me. I started school many times and stop. I went to the ENA conference and met presenters from CCN I stated in September, the admission advice was great he made sure I send all my papers in the instructors are excellent. I completed my degree in July of 2015 and started my MSN the education track. The highlight is today I went to the New Jersey campus for the opening of the North Brunswick campus and met the President it came full circle for... Read More me for students living in NJ this is great news for them I can't wait to complete my MSN Thank you all the professors that have helped shape where I am right now.

I completed the RN-BSN program in Dec 2015, or so I thought. Upon completion of my Capstone project, I was very excited to have completed the program. During my enrollment I had to have surgery ( non-elective) I was forced to withdraw and had to pay $1500.00 even though I had documentation for my surgeon. The latest SSA had me resume my courses in the incorrect order, the Capstone project is supposed to be your final class, as it is a culmination of all that you have learned. I had to take another... Read More class following the capstone project, while my classmates went to Cabo to celebrate. Not bashing the school but a true account of my experience. I don't feel as if GCU realized the student is a customer without customers the business doesn't exist. For $18,000 I expected more.

Loved my time at Jacksonville University for my BSN. In fact, I'm preparing to start my MSN currently. The 8 week classes are tough, but fair and I felt they adequately prepared me for my degree. In addition to preparing me for my role in nursing. I truly have no complaints about the online classes and processes as the technology was easy to use, the books were reasonable, the teachers were fair and provided excellent instruction. Overall, I would strongly recommend attending Jacksonville for a BSN.... Read More

I attended Utica's ABSN program at their satellite location in Syracuse, NY. I graduated December of 2023. My experience in this program was overall great. Even though didactic was fully online, the professors work hard to provide resources that you need in order to succeed. No matter the mode of instruction, there is always bumps in the road or a professor that isn't always the easiest to learn from or work with. In my experience the majority of professors were great and even though we didn't see... Read More them in person they offered zoom, real time reviews or office hours to talk through material. This program also offers tutoring that is easily accessible and helpful. No matter the program, there are pros and cons always and you have to be flexible and patient with yourself, professors and clinical instructors. My clinical instructors were amazing and even with up to 8 people in a clinical they made sure everyone was learning and having a good experience. Healthcare is nothing short of chaos, and clinical can feel that way sometimes but that is only how you learn and grow and it prepares you for the real world of nursing where the environment, patient status and research is constantly changing/evolving.

The other portion of this program includes in person labs, that connect what you learn in didactic into a simulation or hands on skills. The lab professors are amazing and are a valuable resource to learn from and gain advice from. Lab prepares you with hands on skills that are done in clinical and eventually skills you will use as a new grad.

One of the things that I wish was different in my experience was the location of some clinicals. I wish that they were a little more mindful of where people lived in regards to the clinical location. For example, I lived in Syracuse but almost every clinical but 2 were in Utica/Rome which was somewhat irritating to commute there when there is a handful of hospitals in Syracuse, hence the reason why I chose this program. And I knew people in the opposite situation where people living in Utica were coming to Syracuse and vice versa.

If you are determined and disciplined to buckle down for the 16 months, be ok to saying no to some plans with family/friends it is worth it. There are sacrifices you will have to make but that is life! It goes by super fast and next thing you know you'll be studying for the NCLEX. I also recommend starting a small study group to get through this program with and lean on eachother.

Best of luck to you, future RN!

P.S. this program WELL prepares you to sit for the NCLEX if you put in the time and effort!

This ABSN program at Utica College is a very rigorous program however, it does an amazing job at preparing intelligent and empathetic nurses. Accelerated programs are not for everyone hence the mixed reviews. At this time the first graduating cohort from the Miramar campus has a 100% NCLEX pass rate. The school provides MANY resources and the professors are all extremely helpful. Every time I have reached out to my professors for assistance or clarification they answered within hours, sometimes within... Read More the same hour. They do an excellent job of providing tutoring and peer guidance for students who want or need it. If you are self-motivated and passionate about the nursing profession I would highly recommend this program.

I attended Utica College ABSN program in Syracuse. The only classes that were in person were the labs 1-2 days/week. Clinical rotations were also in person at local hospitals. As for the rest of the classes, they were quite literally 鈥渞ead pages 700-900 in the book by Friday.鈥� There are no lectures and there is no one actually teaching the courses. There are resources like some videos and tutoring sessions, but a majority of the time these are not helpful. Some of the 鈥渧ideos鈥� were teachers driving... Read More in their cars with children screaming in the back. With some of tutoring sessions that were online, an instructor did not show up 3/10 times. The tutoring sessions in person are only able to accommodate 5-10 people at a time. The program is incredibly unorganized and you are lucky if anyone answers an email. It can be hard having professors from Florida while you are sitting in NYS. With this said, all of the clinical instructors and lab teachers are amazing. They are so intelligent, animated, and are truly dedicated to help you learn. In addition to this, although there are issues with the program, I felt highly prepared to work in a hospital nursing setting. Compared to other nurse counterparts who have also just graduated from other programs, I feel as if I learned so much more material than them. Questions that these other graduates have are some of the questions I can immediately answer. I did feel prepared to take on a job. Along with this, the program offered many job fairs that were very helpful. The program made me so stressed and angry due to the layout and disorganization, but the lab instructors and the clinical instructors made it worth it.

I love Chamberlain. I've been attending since May 2015, and I will finish in May 2018 because I had to do all of my prerequisites here. All in all, every school has issues, but Chamberlain offers a great program. The downside is if you fail, your graduation date is immediately pushed back. You only have 2 fails (test average for a course of less than 76%) and two withdrawals before being dropped from the program. I've had a couple of professors who were just generally not the best, but that's with... Read More any program. All in all, I am having a great learning experience. It's a bit pricey, but for me, this was the best option so that I could start my prereqs and be done with my BSN in 3 years. Otherwise, it would have taken me additional years.
