Latoya's Health Education and Training Center

U.S.A. Michigan

I heard about this school from a couple of nurses at a facility I used to work at as a CNA. They told me it was only 1 LPN year program and the only thing you had to do to get in was have a HS diploma, pass a PSB test and complete and interview with Rosa (very very nice lady). I jumped right on that opportunity and was accepted in May of 2009. I am currently attending Latoya's and I love it as of today I have 8 months until graduation. I am so thankful for this school because if not for it I would still be waiting to get into Mott's program. :yawn:

Okay so the cost was 13,000 for my class but next year it will go up to 14,00 dollars. Which is still alot less then AMC's program and from what I hear Latoya's program is a tad bit better. But you know I am bias. :redbeathe

But if you are currently on a waiting list or you want to change your careers I highly recommend that you try Latoya's. I believe testing to get in started on Jan. 20th and it will continue until the end of April.

If you have any questions or you want contact information reply here .

I went through the NWLB process, and after 6 weeks finally made it onto a waiting list. I havent heard anything yet, but i have pretty high doubts that i'll receive funding from them in time seeing as how its so close to classes starting. Im crossing my fingers, but not holding my breath. :) I really have no idea how long it takes to become available, if it will at all.

Will you be at orientation saturday?

WOW, congradulations to all of you that got into Latoya's! I'm in Detroit but I'll do the commute. Do any of you that got in know how many times a year they accept students?

i think they just do the one term, october to october- but if you arent doing this term, go right away and get on a list for NWLB, because if you're on it a year in advance, you probably have a shot of getting some funding!

I spoke to ------ on Friday and she told me that you have to already have funding and past they're test before they will even consider you. So I don't know where I'm going to get funding from right now. I wonder if all the other schools are like that.

This is not an accredited school because its BS! I will never allow someone who came from this place to work with a sick dog let alone a human!!!

Have any of you ever wondered WHY this place is not an accredited school and why it doesnt take financial aid? WHAT REAL SCHOOL DOES NOT TAKE FINANCIAL AID? Think about that for a minute.

Can anyone here on the forums tell me what their experience has been from graduating from this school has been? As in passing the exam for your license and how long/ if you were able to find a job afterwards. Thanks to all that will comment here.

I graduated Latoya's October 2010 and just recently took and passed my nclex on the first try. I had 85 questions. All in all I had a good experience from Latoya's. It was a bit disorganized but I am forever grateful for them.

Justicelittle Latoya's is accredited through the state of Michigan just not federally. If it wasn't accredited then Michigan would not allow students who graduated from this school to sit for the NCLEX examination. Also Michigan works would not give them money for students to go there. But yes it is accredited and you get a very good education there. :D

Can you tell me everything about this place? I may be attending in October 2014 but I just have so many questions about the place. I heard it's basically self teaching yourself but do they give you extra help if you need it? I would hate to spend all of the money into this place and end up not passing!

I want to go there but like most people cant afford it right out, so are you getting help with funding
