Hey! Is there anyone attending Brookline College (in Phoenix, AZ) new accelerated bachelor's degree program. I plan to start it May 9th and would like to know anyone's opinion on the school?

FutureNurseLCW, I just wanted to give you a bit of information about what you said. Not all faculties require accreditation. It is dependent on the faculty or it may be preferred, but I assure you, the students that have graduated from Brookline, 80% of the first graduating class has already found jobs and some in the fields that they wanted.

I would beware. I work at a huge hospital in Phoenix and a lot of our managers won't hire from Brookline. Or Carrington.

I know this is a dated forum but question for those currently in the nursing program or finished... what exactly does the nursing portion of the schooling cover? I noticed that the itinerary states gerontological nursing but no mention of med surg, psychiatric, maternity/family nursing. Is any of this covered? I ask because I was considering Brookline but after program comparison to other colleges I'm now uncertain. Help!

@tklovrich - All those topics are covered med surg, psych, maternity, community, pediatrics, and NCLEX Review.

I am currently enrolled in Brookline's program and will be graduating soon. I have worked with a lot of Brookline Graduates at clinical locations so I do not think this is true.

Does anyone know if you can transfer credits(pre-requisite) from a community college to brookline College? If so, does that make the tuition less? Thank you!

Hi I'm not sure if you received your answer yet, but I believe you can. They let me transfer my credits from my university in California.

I am thinking of Brookline's accelerated BSN and would appreciate input from either current or past students, I see they are on the New Mexico Board of nursing site and the last(which I believe was the first class) passed the Nclex at 100% any of those grads currently working?
