Reputations of IHCC/NHCC/other MANE schools?

U.S.A. Minnesota

Published

I'm relatively new to Minnesota (been here 2 years) and I'm not aware of the reputations of the 2 schools I'm debating on going to, Inver Hills CC and North Hennepin CC.

North Hennepin was my original choice and IHCC was a backup, however now I've heard great things about Inver. What reputations do these nursing programs have? Both are just about the same distance from my house (Inver is about 5 minutes closer) and the brand new BHCC building at NHCC is definitely enticing.

Has anyone here attended either of these schools? Or perhaps know somebody who has? Also, does anyone know the NCLEX success rate for graduating students from each of these schools?

Thanks in advance! :)

Just got my acceptance letter from IHCC. Now I really don't know what to do.

Can anyone help? Has anyone heard anything about either of these programs?

NHCC has a day program (40 students) and an evening/weekend program (32 students). I'll be starting the e/w program this fall.

NHCC's nursing program is moving into the new bioscience & health career center building this fall.

They have similar NCLEX pass rates and cost about the same. So, I think it pretty much boils down to where you feel you'll be more comfortable.

Thanks for both your replies. To be honest, since I moved here and have started research schools for nursing, I always pictured NHCC.

Sounds like I've made my decision!

Good! I've heard that NHCC has a good reputation. I'll see you in the spring.

Yup I heard NHCC was a very good school and nursing program.

That's good to know. I'm 6 months new to the area too and am starting at NHCC next week- I had no idea what it's reputation is but that's promising to hear! They just completed the new nursing building so I'm stoked to see it!

I chose NHCC as well. Starting in the spring of 15

I'll be attending then as well! Nice to see someone else in the class :)

Yes it is! Im in the evening/weekend class.
