Olivet Nazarene University ABSN: Reviews

[Sunflower12]

Hello All,

I am attending Olivet's ABSN program in the fall. I have come to realize, looking for information about this program from recent graduates is like pulling teeth. I have yet to find 1 post about ANYONES experience. I have searched through countless threads and no one has a clue about how it is to be apart of their program. I am asking if anyone has any information about the quality of learning at this school. Did Olivet accomplish a great hybrid program or is it unorganized? I honestly just want someone's overall experience OR a previous thread where someone talked about their experience. Thank you for your help!

I just graduated from Olivet Nazarene University's Accelerated Nursing program in Oakbrook this past Fall semester. I wouldn't recommend this program to the worst of my enemies. This program is a living nightmare.... it's completely disorganized and they are only interested in taking your money while making you go through a lot of unnecessary problems. They blame students for everything even though there staff is least interested in teaching or helping students. I made it to graduation only because of my determination and inner strength. Professors only care about getting their paychecks on time without doing any work especially the faculty in level 3 and 4. Whenever you have a question they made us run in loops. If you had a problem they played checkers with you while not providing you with the appropriate resources. I wouldn't recommend this program to anyone who wants to be nurse as you will spend most of your time crying about things in this program because and you will find that no one will help.

Dont take your chances at this school. It is better to take a chance at a casino in LAS Vegas than to try and graduate out of here.

I just finished the ABSN program. DO NOT GO TO ONU. Only about 7% of my beginning cohort finished on time. Many of the students have failed and been kicked out of the program. There were high admission requirements. The students were not stupid. ONU has bad NCLEX pass rates so instead of improving the teaching program they just kick out 3/4 the students. Many students are kicked out in the last one or two semesters, then nothing will transfer. The faculty seem to hate the students. They lose paperwork and then make the student suffer for it. They are very unorganized. They will send students to clinicals 1.5 hours drive at 5:00am and then the student has to go home because the school did not turn in the paperwork. They change program requirements and policies every semester so you do not know what you are signing on for because it will change. They have ruined many lives and put many students in big debt with no degree and no jobs. Do not be pursuaded by nice talk and a smooth admission process. The ONU nursing program quickly becomes very hateful toward students.
