Has anyone gone to Platt College in Dallas?


I am looking at Platt College and Dallas Nursing Institute compared to a local community college (aside from the extreme cost difference) does anyone know the pros and cons of going to one of these "for profit" schools? As a mom of 4, the class time and clinical times (9a to 330 pm M-TH) and then (Clinicals as early as 7 a to as late as 6pm only 2 days per week) offered by Platt work best for me. I guess what I am looking at is teachers experience, rate of completing the class, pass rate of the NCLEX, overall attitudes of staff and students etc,,, Thanks for any help!
