Hello all prospective nurses,
If anyone has questions about IUON or living on the island, send me a message and I could help you with life on the island, the good restaurants, transportation and the course work. I graduated from IUON and attended an affiliated school in Kentucky. I took my boards in September and I currently work in the ICU in a new grad program. Just leave me a message if you guys have any questions.

It's on St. Kitt's an island in the Carrebean. It came to attention because it's affiliated with a few nursing schools in the USA and Americans who can't get in those schools for whatever reason or have been wait listed attend there.
Looks nice.
Got it - thanks Tweety. Yes, very nice....especially when we have two winter storms headed our way.

How was your experience and what were the pros and cons? Would you recommend that others receive their nursing education there?

I would love to talk to you. I am really interested in going to St. Kitts for their BSN-RN program, though I just found out I got accepted into a school in CA, where I live and I don't know what to do. I would love and appreciate any feedback, advice and comments that you have. Congrats to you and your success!!

Hi! I'm attending the IOUN this coming Spring 2009 and I would like to know if the money we are paying will be worth it? What are the coursework and materials that I need to prepare?
Once we are done at IOUN -BSN, which affiliates school will accept the IOUN courses that we completed at St. Kitts?
Do you know anybody that I can contact regarding the housing or looking for a roommate?
Pelase email me.
Your reply and concern regarding this matter is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

This school has all the qualifications of US nursing schools you just have to transfer to one of the affiliated schools to get your degree. CSU in Pueblo, Colorado has also become affiliated with IOUN. If you contact the regional rep for your area they will help you with fully furnished housing and everything. I am looking at attending IOUN in 2009 and have been in contact with the school at least once a week. They will assign some one to help you through the whole process but first fill out an app if you haven't already done so. As far as this school being worth the $. It seems some people are already reaping the benefits as read above. Good Luck!
