I am thinking about going to Chamberlain College of Nursing in Columbus Ohio. I have read some not so grew things about it, but am from out of state so don't know what to believe or not believe. Any help, advice, or reviews would be great!

I've never gone because of the research that I did. Chamberlain is going out of business... It's a private for-profit school that isn't accredited so once it goes out of business you're screwed because their classes are not transferable to any other college. For their tuition to be so expensive, you're SOL if that happens.

I am wondering where you read the information about them going out of business and that they are not accredited. From what I have read, they are accredited. I'm really interested in where you have read this, as I haven't and would love to visit whatever site, etc. that you got it from to read it myself!

Thanks!

Maybe I'm being harsh about it but it's just a lot easier to avoid the stress and to go to a public college like OSU, CSCC or Mount Carmel. Here are some links that I found helpful:

Thank you so much! Unfortunately, I don't think that I could get into those other schools because of their GPA requirement. While I have A's in all my prerequisite classes, my overall GPA is not high enough from my first degree.

What is your GPA? My GPA was low so I've been taking nursing pre reqs with CSCC as a transient student to make my CSCC GPA high enough to apply for the nursing program

I would actually need to figure out how to find out my GPA since I have one from the college that I got my BS in nutrition (around a 2.3 or 2.4), but have since taken many classes (about 10/12) to raise my grades. All classes that I have taken after graduating I have received A's in. I wonder what my cumulative GPA is....

I see that Ohio State is extremely competitive and hard to get into.

You should look into taking classes at CSCC! You can take pre requisites without, if you need any, without a high GPA. And the ADN program requires a 2.8. I believe you only need a 2.5 for the LPN program.

I want to get my BSN though...
