Virginia College New RN program - anyone know anything about it?

thanks for confirming that for me....I feel better!

They are accredited......but when the first class graduates if they don't have an acceptable pass rate of the NCLEX they can then be denied accreditation.....hence the reason I opted for another route. Not to mention the $$.....

The prime consideration here being - do you have As in ALL prerequisites for JS or LS? They go strictly by points, and you may have to be on the waiting list a while....not plugging for Virginia college, but they are a night program, which is very beneficial to people who still have to work while attending school, and you take the "prerequisites" along with regular coursework, so no retaking classes trying to get your points high enough to get in. I chose not to attend based on the $$ as well, but waiting a year on a waiting list to get into the other programs is 1/2 of a program...in other states that have waiting lists of 3-5 YEARS it comes down to how long are you willing to wait to save that money? Money that you could be earning back as soon as you hit the job market (assuming you get a job, but that's a different story). We here in this area have more programs to choose from than lots of other states, so go easy on the ones that jump at the chance to spend that money and get done faster
