Eastern Center for Arts and Technology

[Hopefulnursebetty]

Hello, everyone! On Tuesday, September 2nd, 2014 I will be attending Eastern Center for Arts and Technology LPN program in Willow Grove, PA. I have recently sent my deposit and I was wondering if anyone else is attending Eastern's 129th LPN class.

[Hopefulnursebetty]

Wow, $30-$32! I need to work there! I heard about Eastern through a friend. She applied but did not get in but she told me about it.

Awww! Well tell ur friend to keep on applying to other LPN programs. There's del tech. I think thats what its called. But the nursing home golden living center pays that amount or close to it

N yeh my friend told me about eastern and a lpn at my job went to eastern also

[Hopefulnursebetty]

My friend went to Prism and that seems like a good school. She started in January 2014. But she continued to push me to apply to Eastern.

I think my aunt use to work at Golden Living.

I heard prism was okay but really expensive and lincoln I heard was horrible. When is she done her program?

[kibird]

Hopefully ill see u. I know she told me they're having a meeting for financial aide aug 4.

[Hopefulnursebetty]

Yes, Prism is almost 30,000. And would have been my last option if I did not get accepted to Eastern. Since Prism is a 15 month program, she will be finished by April 2015.

[Hopefulnursebetty]

Great! I hope it get enough from financial aid.

[kibird]

I hope I do too. I had did my fasfa a few months ago. I just will have to do my independent verification form

[kibird]

Why does prism have a 15 month and not a 12 month program? Thats long

[Hopefulnursebetty]

I completed my Fafsa a couple months ago as well.

As far as Prism, I believe they have five terms and each term is 3 months long. The first three months they are in the classroom but after that they spend 12 months at their clinical sites.

Besides Eastern, I was also looking at PITC and PIT but both of them are on provisional.
