Students who are enrolled/graduated from Elmhurst Deicke Center for Nursing Education

Hi everyone!

I'm new to this site and I am still a little lost on how exactly to use it so please bare with me : )

I have just recently finished up my prerequisites for nursing school and I have applied to a few colleges. I have yet to hear back from two, one of them being Elmhurst College. I was wondering if anyone knew more about their nursing school?! It would be great to hear back from someone who is currently in their program or has graduated from there!

Specific questions I have include: What GPA do they accept? How many students do they take a semester? Is it a good program? Where is clinical work performed? Is it a difficult program to get into?

Anything else you can think of that may help me out is more than appreciated!

Thanks!

The college nursing programs in my area are competitive. If a person has a GPA below 3.8 it is not likely they will get accepted and some places they wouldn't even make the waiting list. There is just so many people wanting to be nurses now. If you have all of your support courses done in addition to the pre reqs, it will help your chances. There are private nursing schools that you can get in if you are willing to pay 2-3 times the tuition, and don't care about your credits not transferring, but I wouldn't recommend it.
