    Hi!
    I dont have any info on ITT becuase i never knew they had a nursing program.
    And I'm assuming you mean Pima Medical Institute and not Pima Comm College... But PMI tuition is 40k. Its pricey but its 2 years and they provide all books and scrubs. I've heard a lot of good things about them- which is one of the reasons i'm considering them. I've done some internet research and from what I see they have a high graduation rate and a very high NCLEX pass rate.
    I'm going to an orientation meeting to find out more next week at PMI Tucson. If I find out anything extra i'll let you know.

    Thanks. I am trying to get into the seminar in Mesa next thursday, right now its full but they said I could call closer to the time and maybe they will have cancellations. Hopefully I can go, otherwise not until Dec 10th, I am also looking at Apollo College as well.

    I hear ITT is around 52K to 57K and we would still have to pay for our uniforms. I am going to Pima Medical tomorrow to see what their requirements are, to some orientation of sorts. Friday I will go and see Apollo which over the phone they said it would cost 47K. Are any of these schools serious about the cost of tuition? It is outrageous.

    Yes, they are serious. I started Apollo's RN program today. But everything is included in the cost. Uniforms, books, everything you need. It is costly, however you will be done by the time you would enter a program at a mcc college program after waiting 2 years. Itt tech is new, so not sure on their program. I have heard good things about Pima medical and Apollo. But pima is too far for me cause I'm in the west valley.

    I agree it is a lot quicker than UNM or any CC. Has anyone taken the entrance exam for PIMA. Itt does the HESI but has you take all of it, in order to get into the program and you have to average a 70%

    I haven't taken the one for Pima, but the Apollo one you only take math, vocab, and reading. You also have to take another entrance test called the Cpat test. Its like a general test before the Hesi, but it is pretty simple.
    I think you have to go to the seminar before they give you any info on the test. Same as apollo, I had to go to an info seminar and was scheduled for the Pima one, but cancelled because of the distance.
