Anyone go to U of MT in missoula?

Hi,

I was just wondering if there is anyone who has gone to the College of Technology in MIssoula for nursing? That's where I'm going next year, right now I am in Helena until then. I'd love to hear from someone who went there about the classes, the teachers, clinicals, etc. Thanks!

I graduated from that school in May! When I was in the program, it was structured differently than it is now.

I too drove from Helena to Missoula. When I applied to RN school I was accepted into both the Helena COT and Missoula COT. Because of my bad experiences with LPN school when I attended the Helena COT, I decided to go to Missoula.

The instructors and the director are amazing! I felt so uplifted and supported. They are very knowledgeable and they try very very hard to make sure you learn what they are trying to teach. They literally adapted the program around how our class best functioned. One of my favorite things was that they really focused the tests and material on the NCLEX-style questions. When I took the boards I didn't feel lost and I wasn't cursing my program for not teaching the subject...they taught it!

Since graduation, I think everyone who has taken the boards has passed the first time around.
