HACC or Pa College of Health Sciences RN program

Published

I an still waiting for a response from Pa College but I have heard so many mixed reviews about both schools I just don't know how to make a decision. Does anyone want to share their experiences?

I'm kind of drawn towards Pa College because of their affiliation with LGH. I like that HACC is cheaper than Pa College, I already have student loan debt. I have heard though that HACC is extremely hard to get into clinical phase.

Again, any personal experiences to help with my decision

Good day, mommyrntobe92:

If you've not joined the PA College of Health and Nursing Sciences FB page at https://www.facebook.com/groups/404556799646624/ do so. There's an extremely interesting discussion on how the college uses ATI which is extremely different than most schools, and how that negatively impacts all of their students.

Thank you.

Thank you, but i will be attending HACC :) I was not accepted into pa college

I did read it though and am very glad I will be attending HACC now

I graduate from HACC in 2 weeks and they also use ATI. It is included in your grade.

Is it a big portion of your grade like they are saying for LGC?

The HACC Lancaster campus gives a maximum of 10 points for the comp predictor score, so no, it's not as big a deal there as it is at PA College.
