im visiting the school tomorrow. i would current students to post their opinion on the instructors, administrators, and other students. i attended VMT Education Center and received a practical nurse certificate. i have nothing good to say about their program except that im glad its over. im fed up with applying at traditional colleges and having to deal with a waiting list to only get denied admission.

Its funny you say that, one of the LPNs at my job attended VMT & he was trying to convince me & another girl to go there too. I know exactly what you mean about applying to traditional colleges & being denied. Its got me very discouraged having to deal with waiting lists too & I'm seriously considering changing my major to something else healthcare related.

before i graduated from VMT they lost some type of accrediation license. everyone that was already enrolled were allowed to graduate but they couldnt enroll new students. hopefully they got their act together.
funny that you mention changing your major, i was going to enroll at CCBC in their health information technology program for spring 2010. it all depends on what im sensing from Global Health.

Please let me know what you think about the program. I am considering it but don't want to spend the money if the program is having problems. I think the program is procey but could be worth it if the program is decent.

Thanks

Yea Health Information Tech. is what I was considering changing my major to as well. I just don't know if I should go for my associates (which I could do at PGCC) or go for my bachelors at Coppin State (the only bachelor's program in the state). I was going to check out Global Health before I started school again but I was so busy. Plus some of the comments sorta scared me off. If you go check them out let me know what you think of the program

csu has an excellent him program. i did 1 semester. its ALOT of work. not difficult but ALOT.

ok so, im just returning from my global health visit. what i saw lacking...parking, no study materials in the library, and a very small lab. nothing major at this point. but once youre through the door, it may be a different story. i watched some instructors teaching and they seemed on point. the students appeared to be focused. admissions stated there are some changes to be done such as the owner will be leasing another building. so, there will be 2 facilities. and some adjustments to the rn program schedule. i also spoke with a couple of the students. they had nothing negative to say about the school. at this point, i will be making an appt. to take the entrance exam.

Glad that you liked it! Maybe I'll try to visit the school soon. Next month will make 6 months since I've been at my job, and that's when I'll be eligible for tuition assistance, so that would definitely help with the cost. So now I have to decide whether to get my RN or get a HIM degree. Did they tell you when the next class will start?

today i went to GH and did my entrance exam that i passed with flying colors. my disappointment came when i found out they dont even have a student loan program. students attending the rn program have to apply for a personal loan. the interest rates are sky high. the school claims they are in the process of getting financial aid for this program which wont probably be available until fall 2010. there is no way im going to be able to work ft to pay for classes and bills and attend school. well back to brain storming
