International College of Health Sciences

Updated:   Published

Hi Everyone,

I'm new here and hopefully I'm posting this in the right area. I'm currently an LVN in Ca and looking into a 1 year LVN-RN on-line program based out of Fl. The name of the school is called International College of Health Sciences based out of Boyton Beach, Fl. I was just wondering if anyone here has had some experiences in dealing with this school, currently attending, or could provide any insight into the program. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

This is true! I said it so long ago! This school is a joke! Now they are giving you a letter saying that different states MAY NOT accept your transcripts and California is one of the states noted! It’s about 15 states noted. Guys, please do more research, read the reviews, go to BBB. Make sure this is the mess you want to be involved in.


I’m not giving you this info because I don’t want anyone to get there degree and become a nurse, I’m saying this because I wish someone had told me and be able to make a better decision. I wish you all well and the best on your journeys! ♥️

I was about to go to this school. Even paid for the entrance fee. But I decided to go to a more reputable college where people have completed the course and are now licensed RNs. Good luck to all!

I also paid for the entrance fee but now they don’t pick up my phone at all.

Consider yourself lucky! I’m sorry that happened to you. That’s nothing, if I tell you what they’ve done to a lot of people you would cringe. Good luck on your journey.

Can you tell me what happened to them? Most of my co-workers almost 6 of them are taking nursing school from them. Some of them are in program and some are in pre-req. I don’t know what will happened to them? They paid a lot of money already. They seems like everything are going fine.

Hi @YappaYee I just started the program Nov. 8. Do you have any tips on how you study every semester, I mean do you use outside resources beside their books? Or any kind of outside resources beside the one that they have. Any info would really help me . Thank you so much ❤️

I am interested in starting ICHS - Florida in February but I am nervous because of all the negative comments I've seen. Has anyone here attended and graduated?

So far it’s been great.  It is all typical issues with any online setting.  My last school had similar issues with tech etc.  The workload is a lot but very clear.  They seem to be doing a lot of work to better the school.  The pharm teacher is amazing.  It is all done on canvas.  There’s one 2 hr zoom a week that you can watch anytime or join live.  There are slides that she goes over via prerecorded video.  There are lessons you click through and do micro quizzes.  And there’s also a 100 Q quiz per week.  If you have to do fundamentals you have to do clinical simulation.  I don’t know anything about that yet but next semester I will be doing it for both classes.  My friend is in those classes already and said she likes the clinical simulation.  Hope this answers some questions.

I noticed that the negative comments that were on the BBB were taken. Take note people, they are trying to make people think they are a legitimate business when in fact they are fraudulent. If you decide to go to the school, don’t get a loan, pay month to month because if you don’t, you will regret it. Please listen when I tell you not to get a loan! That’s if you decide to go.
