Hi everyone! So I am currently a pre nursing student and was looking into applying to all nursing schools here in Las Vegas. Chamberlain is a new school that recently opened and I can't find any forums on this specific location. If you attend this location, would you please tell me your honest pros and cons? How do you afford that 80k tuition? is it worth attending this school? Please be detailed and as honest as possible! I feel when i've called to get info it's just a biased representative making a sale attempt, and i'm trying to not bury myself in unneccesary debt or get screwed over by a for profit school
Feed back can help other pre nursing students looking into this location as well. Thank you so much :)

PLEASE avoid for-profits!
consider this- would you rather wait 2-3 years to get into a reasonably priced program OR get in right away and spend the next 10-15 years under the crushing load of student loan debt these schools require?

I would consider CSN. The entire RN program runs about 7K, however, the ADN program is really a 4-year program for most students. The pre-reqs take about 1.5 to 2 years to complete and then 2 years for the RN program once you're accepted.
