Anyone enrolled? How does it work? Do you like it? I know it's a "for profit" college but if they have a high graduation & NCLEX pass rate then does it really matter?

I am enrolled! I am only in the first quarter though. They are now SACS accredited,which is the important accreditation you need to get your BSN. All colleges are for-profit. I never really understood why people like to say their school is not-for profit. So far I like it. It's very fast paced. When do you start?

I'm looking into it. I am signed up to take my TEAS at my local community college but I won't start until August. I'm so tired of waiting, I just want to be in a nursing program already. I applied to Galan before but never took the PAX. Is it hard?

No, not really. I had trouble on the physics questions though. It's harder than the Hesi A2 and is on par with the Teas. You would not start at Galen till August or at another school?

How often do they start the bridge program? If they start it sooner then at Galan, if not then if I get in at the community college.
