Chamberlain

Published

Hi, I was just accepted to chamberlain for March 2007. I was wondering if anyone else will be starting then? I was also wondering if any of you who started in october would be willing to share your opinion of the program. Thanks

rnrae,

I'm so happy that you made it through. Just be glad you went when you did. I sure wish I had went earlier.

For those of you that have 'left' Chamberlain and recieved their student loan money back....how long did it take to get it all taken care of?

It has been about 7 weeks since I spoke with Dean L. and Ms. M regarding my options, I haven't gotten any thing about my refund back yet, so I emailed the Dean this week and I have to say I wasn't surprised to find out that Dean L. is no longer at the school....at this point with the rate of turnover I fear that there will be no staff left that I have spoken to and my $7000 federal loan refund will be left hanging.

I'm in the middle of a lawsuit with them......they've paid off some but the loan for my books and I borrowed to come to St Louis for validations.....they are still left hanging right now. I'm contacting the media if they don't settle soon. I'm tired of dealing with these weasles.

Yeah...me too, everytime you call there is a new staff member, they say one thing and then do another....$528 per credit hour and climbing is an insane amount of money for a teach yourself program.

I am ready to move on, but entering into another program and asking the government for money when I still 'owe' over $7000 just doesn't sit well with me....

I wish you the best of luck with what you are doing, and I hope that anyone reading this thread steers clear of this school.

Bman, I am not sure about Excelsior's program. With Chamberlain, you take all of your classes on line, even the nursing classes. You must be on campus at the end of each semester for the 4 day skills validation. Here in St louis, I will be able to take clinicals with "on campus" students. If you are out of state, you will need to schedule clinicals (with the help of Chamberlain) with a preceptor at a local hospital. It is a 2 year - 6 semester program.

:angryfire and, just today, I received a letter that they have raised the tuition by $42/cr hr to improve the program. I have heard that they could really use some much needed improvement but it is getting better - so I've heard.

Good Luck

was this program closed??

I don't see it on their website anymore.

my friend is looking to get her nursing but she failed at the school where I graduated from my ASN degree (I went to community college)

Yes, they have closed the online program-at least out of St.Louis. The last graduating class in the program is about to graduate on Oct 31.........which I am in, and so glad to be done!!!

The online ADN program is still available at the Columbus, OH campus, but I believe you have to be an Ohio resident to be in the program.
