  1. Is chamberlain College of Nursing worth a shot?

22 members have participated

So far I've gotten accepted to the Chamberlain College of nursing in Houston,TX for January 2013; since I am aiming to get my CRNA's I am worried if after i finished here at chamberlain I wont be able to transfer to another school..

So far during the enrollment process my advisor has been leaving out some stuff or forgetting stuff..

* Such as orientations meeting,

* there was a math test I had to take after the hesi test in order to wipe away 3 math classes, If it wasn't for me asking they would've done my curriculum with the 3 extra clases. (better said they did do my curriculum along with the 3 extra classes)

* I've called several times and can't get ahold of anyone nor can anyone give me any answers to my doubts.

So far I have had a not so good experiences with the process enrollment, and well everything they've had me doing so far, such as drug test, paperwork, financial aid, was done at a rush and at last minute..

So my thing now, is it really worth going to chamberlain after the experience I have had with them.. if that has been what I experience now, will it be the same after I start the nursing program with them??

as of now I am having second thoughts about this school..

Has anyone had issues transfering chamberlain credits to another state university?

What are you thoughts on chamberlain..

Not to mention the loan that the Gov gave me for the school doesn't cover my tuition for the whole 2 years. =(

Good luck to you, hope everything works out for you.. hopefully you don't go through what i have gone through with them.

Good luck!

If you don't mind me asking how much did you calculate you would have to pay out of pocket?

Ah ok so you would have to pay the 1373 just for one semester aka every 8 weeks at a time flat?

What are you thoughts on chamberlain..

I graduated in 2010 from the RN-BSN completion program.

Yes. I was accepted into the University of South Alabama and several other state and private school graduate programs. It was no problem. I loved Chamberlain and felt completely prepared for graduate school.

Hello,I am a BSN graduate from chamberlain. I was overall... Ok... With the school. But I will caution you against spending 70k on a BSN- nursing is very over saturated and if you are financing your education the 1000/month student loan payment almost isn't worth it. As far as transferring- it should transfer fine. Most schools only care that you got a BSN, they may require additional biochem or physics but that's generally unavoidble but that's ok because most schools require 2minimum years of critical care experience to apply. Again- school is mediocre but the debt... Wow. 23.00 and hour minus taxes and student loan- that's only 1400 a month, and that's IF you are fortunate enough to get a job.

Thank you sarah for your advice; Yes its a lot of money, not to mention the student loans that I was going to get for the school was not going to be enough to cover the whole 2 school years.. I had to get another loan out in order to start, which to me it was wow! a lot of money.. thats why I decided to just try to get into one of the state university for the nursing program.

Good for you. I do have to say, now that I have graduated, I immensely regret going to a private school. Please spread the word, unless parents are paying for college- don't put yourself that far in debt for a BSN :) good luck to you :)

Thank You, Same to you :).
