Hi, I am also interested in taking the LPN route with Fortis College because of the long waiting list from other community colleges. I have all my pre-req for the RN program plus I have finished the first block of nursing in another state. My main concern is the money for the tuition,I do not whether having all the education mentioned above would help as far as tuition goes.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am set to start Fortis LPN program in March and would also like feedback from those of you who have already started. I've read a lot of negative reviews of Fortis other locations but not much on the AZ campus. I also want to go on to get my BSN and dont know if the credits from Fortis will transfer to other schools? Arg decisions!!

One of the most important things you need to find out is will another school, say one of the MCC's accept your classes from Fortis! It is VERY common for state schools to NOT accept transcripts from private schools. So, if you plan to continue your education this is a deal breaker in MY book! Don't ask the school you are attending, call the schools you plan on attending afterward. Also, 10 months to wait for a spot at the SWSC is not long (my opinion) and they will tell you 10 months, but most people I know that have applied, get a call for the earlier start date. It's happened to me not twice, but three times!
