Anyone attending Mount Carmel Second Degree Program?

Published

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone was currently attending or graduated from the Mount Carmel Second Degree program in Columbus, OH. If so how did you like it? I see from their website that the cost is almost 28K. Were you offered any type of loan repayment in exchange for work at the Mount Carmel Hospital?

Thanks in Advance!

Oh yeah, I forgot--check out Capital too! They have a 20 month program that was my backup plan if I didn't get into SDAP.

I graduated in the 4 year regular program & that was intense in itself. You must stay focused & take advantage of the learning opportunities. One thing about Mt. Carmel is that you are not a # & the teachers really take pride in what they do. I don't know too many schools where you can walk past the deans office & wave hi & they call you in the office 2 ask how things are going. I applied for the advanced placement program (not second degree, two different programs) but didn't get in b/c my gpa was low with my first degree. I finished Mt. Carmels traditional program with over a 3.0 gpa while having three children & working. Kudos to those those who succeed in the 2nd degree program you must be strong to survive. I like Mt. Carmel so much I'm applying for the Masters program

Can anyone tell me what a typical day is like for the Second Degree program? Is it 5 days a week 8-5pm? Are there breaks in between semesters and if so is shorter breaks or normal breaks? Also, I see the cost is up around $33K. I maxed out my federal loans on my first degree. Any idea on ways to get some extra money to help pay for it? A lot of questions, I know. Thanks for your responses!:nurse:
