Please help me out. I was planning to do my LVN through Kaplan (Sacramento). I was debating if it is a good decision going to this school?

I'm in the same area...How much is Kaplan vs Unitek, if you don't mind my asking.

charles jones is just under 20K --- I'm talking about for an LVN.

WCC is the most expensive.

Unitek is almost 40k vs 30k at Kaplan. By the way where is charles jones?

Unitek is about 34k.

I currently go to Kaplan San Diego for the LVN program and I would recommend it. It's a great program. and the tuition is around $34,000 for the 15 month program.

I go to Kaplan north Hollywood, and was gonna transfer to sac. It's a great school and the DON is very nice. Great clinical sites with the last term at a hospital.

But unitek is faster, right? Charles Jones is 10 months plus prereqs (they usually offer a 6 week prereq program once a year)

Does anyone know how fast unitek and kaplan are and whether prereqs are included?

In regards to Unitek Sacramento campus, their LVN program is 11 months. The prereqs costs $3,150 in which you have to pay out of pocket and is 2 weeks long for 6 prereqs courses. The total cost of the program is $34,000.

Hey guys im in the same boat! I went to carrington and theysaid it was 45k, unitek is 34, kaplan is 30, caj is 20. I was going to do the bridge to rn after at carrington but they said theyll let u if your lvn program meet their requirements, so far they accept kaplan. Idk about caj but i really want to do caj because its much more cheaper! Has anyone been on the actual program at kaplan here? I want to know if they prepare you well for the nclex and the real job.
