Atlanta Technical College ASN Fall 2015

YadaB · Mar 25, 2015

Is anyone applying to the ASN program at atlanta technical college? Is this is a good school? is it hard? Ive heard bad things about it! It only accepts 30 students every fall! Is it worth it?

Last I heard they lost accreditation.... I attend the school, but my major is Health Information Technology... It's not the best school, nor the worst as long as you stay focused and study you'll be fine

I think if you've heard bad things about it, it's a red flag.

However, I would verify their accreditation, graduation and NCLEX pass rates before deciding (though if I heard a lot of bad things, that would hold some weight with me - why do you want to go to a school you've heard so many bad things about?). I know with hearing bad things sometimes you have to take them with a grain of salt (are they disgruntled students and bad mouthing the place (that had more to do with them than the school) or are the negative statements legit?).

I would do more research.

But whether it's worth it or not is up to you. This is your education and your money. But make an educated decision. I wasted a semester and a half at a school because I rushed into enrolling before I knew anything about the different accreditations and the program. I withdrew to apply at a better school because I want the most out of my education and money I'm spending for it (a $9,000 lesson learned).
