    Kaplan University ADN Program In South Florida


    I am a student in this program now. I am one of the students who is at the end of the program. Do not take anything that this school says for face value. I regret being in this program greatly. I am at the end of the program only to be told that I haven't recieved the hours and education I was suposed to recieve. Now they are scrambling to cram two years of missing curriculum and all of the information they failed to giive me in ten weeks. If I could transfer my creditis and finish at Broward College or Dade College I would. I have been through so many changes and ups and downs that the name Kaplan repulses me. I was once optimistic and excited about this program but they have not held thier promises or end of the bargain. To think ...all of this trouble only to be a graduate of a school with a 50% board passing rate and no accrediation. Procede with great caution when thinking about this school. Get everything and I mean EVERYTHING in writing.The best advice of all that I wish would have recieved myself would be to save yourself the extra 30,000 + in loans and go to a community college. Look up Kaplan University and thier recent article about the the pembroke pines campus and not being allowed to accept more students for certain programs.

    Is this the same Kaplan, that holds the $500 Kaplan RN review ? With a RN pass rate of only 50%... No way...

    Yes, but this is a pilot program that apparently anyone can open under the Kaplan name. The pass rate for the students who take the Kaplan Review is 98% overall & the passrate for the program in Sandiego is also high. Its just this new program in Florida that is giving Kaplan a bad name.
