Brown Mackie College


Hello all, I am new to the Ohio board, but not new to all nurses. I am from Michigan and I am thinking of attending Brown Mackie College in Findlay. I was wondering if anyone could tell me about this school or has anyone attended. How is it? Is it a good school? What is there pass rate on the NCLEX? Im just curious because I can't find much information on this school. Any feed back would be appreciated.

Hello, I attended the Brown Mackie College in Cincinnati for LPN last year and to be honest with you it is the worse school ever. I have a friend that also attended the one in NKY and she said the same. The pass rates are ridiculously low and the clinical sites are like an hour away. I started out with 60 people in my class and by the 4th month there was only 20 of us because they all transferred to other schools. I transferred as well. None of their credits transfer to anywhere no matter what they say. It was a huge waste of my time and now I am another 5,000 in the whole because of that crappy school. I wouldn't recommend this school to my worst enemy. Hope this helps!
