Eastern International College

[JerseyNurse25]

Hi all Im thinking about attending Eastern International College in Belleville N.J I have so many questions about this school and im looking for anyone that has graduated from their nursing program. So far I have found many negative comments about their Ultrasound program but nothing about the RN program.

@Uniquenurse10 hey I too paid out of pocket because it was my second degree I finished in December. Students do get hired, actually a handful of my classmates got hired for Hackensack meridian and RWJBarnabas to name the few. In regards of BSN no one has started that I know but I do know they have RN to BSN programs so what that means since you will have your RN you will then take a couple of classes to receive your BSN and possibly less if you have bachelors in other degree since some courses are bachelor level. There’s a ton of online RN-BSN programs chamberlain is one that you can earn in 3 semesters. Hope I was able to help and good luck!

@Uniquezapata thank you so much! I feel so relieved getting reassurance from someone who actually went to EIC. I’m so excited to start now.

@Uniquenurse10 hi I am starting the May semester jersey city campus, have you started already ? How is it going what classes did you think first semester ?

@Eunice0727 I graduated last year from Belleville campus. But my best friend still attends I heard it’s changed so much and it’s very disorganized since originally Nursing faculty has left and now due to pandemic I heard they’re pushing graduation dates an extra semester since they’re only offering limited class with no lab/clinical. @Uniquenurse10 thought to let y’all know

Hi I’m at EIC entering my last semester with 206 207 , can you please give me some study tips . I heard he fails you if he just doesn’t like you .

@Nursing12092020 hi I had to repeat him twice but that’s mainly because of me and 2 other students had to appeal because we were told we failed med surg 2 but found out there were extra points given out to specific students that originally should have failed; therefore we started 206/207 a month late and during the Summer the semester was 12 weeks vs the full 16weeks because he was going to his country meaning we (the 3 that started late) had him for 8 weeks. He said if I would have started from the beginning with Everyone (which wasn’t my choice) I would have passed. I am going to be honest the classes are extremely challenging just pay attention and do every assignment he says cause it counts. Also the exit exams are not how you are used to(meaning if you fail and repeat that they use whatever score you get to add to the percent) he grades them as pass or fail so I you don’t meet the minimum score it’s a fail meaning you fail the class, unless the rules changed. But only advice I can give is study and pay attention. Good luck.
