   Well I'm glad to say that I'm not the only one that has had to travel that far. I'm going on my 3rd weekend going and honestly it's not that bad of a drive as I thought it was. Only bad thing was that we were out in the middle of no where and it's a ...

12. Help , any ecpi student under 24

    amandapanda2011 replied to yourlexi's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I have to agree with the comments above. I go to ECPI and I can tell you now to NOT GO! It is expensive and plus (atleast the 2 locations in Richmond Va) the LPN program is struggling that the BON had to step in. I would really look into other nursin...

    amandapanda2011 replied to Primrose13's topic in Virginia

    I'm a student at ECPI. I can tell you now and suggest to NOT go there. It is a good school, but there is too much going on and the nursing program (LPN...not sure bout RN) is going down with it. I like the school, just not what's going on with it

    amandapanda2011 replied to joyfullpn's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    My LPN program costs about $32-34,000 (give or take) with books and uniforms included and they pay like 75% of board fees. But thanks to grants and financial aid I only gotta pay like $14,000. Seems like my school is way over priced

    Sorry to hear you didn't pass. That's my biggest fear when I finish school. Just like the person above me said try Kaplan. But I'm also trying this NCLEX app on my phone called NCLEX Mastery that's supposed to really help, and from what I read online...
