Any current/past students of Rasmussen college? I'm hoping to start in January at the Tampa/Brandon location, any comments, reviews or suggestions would be helpful! THanks!

I am considering their program too...do you know what the schedule is there? Are you going for RN?

The next start is for a full time days schedule, 2 years starting January 3rd. I was really impressed with their campus and program layout. I am going for the RN Associates Degree program.

thanks...and what are the hours for the day program?

Moved to FL Nursing Programs Discussion forum.

how do i get there?

the hours depend on what classes you're taking the first 2 quarters (each quarter is 3 months) at the beginning, you're just doing gen ed, which is 2 or 3 days a week from 8-3 or so. once you start clinicals the hours are about the same. Also, most of the gen ed courses are available online as well, so you can work out a schedule that is best for you.

They are right at the corner of falkenburg and MLK, you can look it up on googlemaps, but it's really easy to get to. I would definetly check out the website, and get in touch with them, everyone there I've dealt with so far has been awesome. I also looked at Everest, which is on MLK right down the street from Rasmussen, Their program is very similar, but the next start is April, which is a night schedule, 3-11pm.

Does anyone have the academic calender (2012) for Rasmussen?

Thanks, AACHAVEZ....I am starting Rasmussen in Jan. pending final acceptance...I'm very impressed with the school...can't wait to start!

that's awesome renaissanceart! I passed my TEAS yesterday morning, so all I really have left to do is meet with the dean, hopefuly we'll see eachother there! Good luck!

I'm also considering Rasmussen for next summer (2012),AACHAVEZ an you tell me how was the TEAS test, what do i have to study before takin it ? thankx :)

Definetly study! When you order the ATI study guide, first thing, take a practice test to see where you are. You will get a detailed outline of the areas you need to focus on. As long as you have a basic understanding of the material in the study guide, you will do just fine.

The advisors at Rasmussen (as well as all the other schools i went to that required the TEAS) said that a large number of people fail on a first attempt, because of not studying.

But again, if you have a basic understanding of the topics covered in the study guide, you will do well. Good Luck!

also, I only had about 2 weeks to study, and passed on my first try.
