Bellin College


Hey guys, new to this website....but I've found it so helpful in the short time that I've been here....but I was wondering if anyone is a graduate, current student or knows of any reputation about Bellin College and their nursing program. I want to know how competitive it is, how well their graduates place and pass the exam and just overall if there are any info about the college.

The reason I'm asking is that, I'm looking to apply to several ABSN program here in Wisconsin, and I was told that with my grades, I would be guaranteed a spot in their program when I applied versus other program. So I just would like to know if anyone has any other info about them.

Thank you

Hi there, I currently live in Oregon but have family in the GB area. My mother knows someone whose daughter got in "immediately" with approximately a 2.8 GPA. I was really hopeful to apply there as well, but was perusing the website and it seems a BSN is >$60k! So perhaps you would get in quickly; but with a lot of debt? Good luck, please let me know if you find more info!

Bellin is a very good nursing school, no wait lists. A great way to get in and get your nursing degree without all the frustration of the tech school wait lists and their constant changing pre-reqs. However Bellin is VERY expensive. I would live to do their 15 month accelerated program (I have a BA in business), but am not willing to go $60K in debt to do so. So I have resigned to the fact that I will have to remain on the wait list at NWTC until I finally get in, earn my ADN and then go on to get my BSN.

I'm starting my ABSN at Bellin this Spring, Jan 2010. Was wondering if anyone out there is starting this program too. I was told there will be about 26 of us in the accelerated program. I'm looking for housing in the area so it would be nice to meet up with any prospective cohort that will be starting there too. I'm not from Green Bay so I'm a bit nervous about moving and finding housing as Bellin does not endorse or provide any information about housing.
