Adirondack Community College


Does anyone out there have any insight into the ACC nursing program. Is the program good or bad? I saw that their 2007 NCLEX passing rate was 75% which doesn't seem too good, but a couple of years before that they were in the 90's so I'm not sure what to think about that. Anyone familliar with the program, please feel free to give me some info. Thanks.

Hey, I was in ACC's program for a year. DO NOT take pre-reqs here. It was horrible. The science professors failed over half the students and I was told by one instructor that it was in her contact to fail large percent of students in order to weed them out for the nsg program. One of my classmates was late for an exam in A+P because she found out her husband had cancer. She was not allowed to retake the exam. The pre-reqs there are ridiculous, but it is a good nursing program. My recommendation: go elsewhere for your sciences, then apply.
