Does anyone have any thoughts on Front Range Community College's nursing program? Any information you can tell would be appreciated. And if you did attend or are attending, I was wondering how long you were on their waitlist for?
FRCC has nursing programs in westminster and fort collins (I think longmont and boulder ).....I graduated from the fort collins ADN program in 2004. Really can't say it was anything to brag about. It always seemed to me that they had too many students and not enough instructors or decent clinical placements. Like every other CC in CO they have an outrageous long waitlist. A friend of mine is attending right now and she waited 3 years. I only had to wait 1.5 years. I was somewhat bothered by how high their drop out rate was.....I think like 30% of the students who started in my class didn't finish. My friend says the same thing is going on in her class, and there are some really nitpicky instructors. The only good thing is they do have a high NCLEX pass rate. I did hear thru the grapevine the westminster program is better - don't know firsthand.
