Hello! Is there anybody who will be attending International College of Health Sciences (ICHS) in Florida in 2022?
SFBayAreaLVN said:How long did you have to stay each time for clinicals? How long were the clinicals if you went every 3 months. Do you finish theory and then do clinical? Thank you
1st and 2nd semester is 10 day.
If LVN and passed AP for Fundamentals then you will have 13 day for first clinical.
3rd semester is 12 days
4th semester is 17 days
Residency Week 7 days but hear they may be dropping it to 5 days
I'm from LA (Gardena area). I am currently in the 1st semester (Pharm & Foundations) and I just started October 2nd this year. Any questions, email me [email protected]. Are there any of you currently in the October 2nd cohort? Anticipated grad date is 01-02/2025. For all of you wondering, I love it so far. They are very organized and you have your resources available! It works for me but there is a lot of work, it's an RN program, but very doable!

@DeeMS for pharmacology all I did was EAQS and read the rationales, I did the same for med surg 1 and psych. Med surg 2 and ob I used different things whatever my classmates recommended me. I'm working full time overnights but my job is sooo slow that I get my assignments done overnight. It's not hard if you know the right people. I finish those 25 weekly assignments in about 5 hours in a week . Some people overthink and get discouraged. My job also allows me to not work when I have to fly out but obviously I don't get paid which is why I had formed groups to financially sustain myself off 700$ everytime I went to Florida.

There have been so many bad reviews about ICHS on Yelp recently! anyone still suggesting this school for 2024?
I am attending but Nope. I will not recommend it unless your willing to deal with changes every semester, new rules that are not announced in a timely manner. Alot of disorganization and willing to deal with Professors who are not there to help the students succeed.
If you want a school that don't require TEAD or HESI, only prereqs and can handle the above then go for it. About 95% of their students are from California last I heard them say.
I'm a Capstone student in the last semester. It's doable if you have a medical background, and determination. I chose to not work after the second semester and believe me, even with more time the volume of work is a lot. I waited a long time to go for it, ICHS was my last hope unless I repeat prerequisites in California. I say if you are self driven you can absolutely do it. Even with the BS.

Hi Adri,
is it possible that we can talk on the phone ? I'm considering ICHS and I would really like to speak with someone who has either completed the program, or currently in the program. Can I send you my telephone number? Or if you prefer I can call you? Please let me know. I wish you the very best of luck in your success.
