Looking for a good 2-year RN program

Hello everyone, I am new to this site. I am an LPN looking for a good 2 year RN program any advice would be helpful. Currently at Cincy State waiting list to long am thinking about Beckfield. Is it hard to get in there.:uhoh3:

I have a previous Bachelor's Degree (non-Nursing) that allowed me to slide into Columbus State's Online Program rather easily. However, it has become more difficult lately.

CSCC has a good program, relationships with OhioHealth and Children's, and it has NLN accreditation. So, definitely a class program.

Nice to see another person from Marion on here, Mike. I'm attending MTC right now...I'm accepted into the RN program starting fall of 09 at MTC.

.

And I stand by my original comment of "stay away from Beckfield." They raised tuition for the second time in May, 2008, are planning on getting a Cincy office on Route 4 (in the Fairfield area) so they are expanding and the students are paying for it. Let them work their learning curve off on somebody else.

Ah so, that explains it. I knew the investment group from NY would increase tuition, but I never thought about that being the reason. Well I guess it is a business, though it sucks to be on the receiving end of the BS. God I can't wait for graduation!!!

Ditto Mary.

Good luck in the program. I should be done summer 09...if the HESI and NCLEX gods smile favorably on me.

By the way...see my response to your HESI post. Didn't mean to be harsh.:smackingf

NOOOO It is not hard to get into Beckfield at all. I'm in my 7th qtr there and its been great. There are no waiting lists or pre-reqs. Provided you don't fail or sit out you finish in 8 qtrs. There is no reason it should take someone 4 years to get a 2yr degree like at cincy state. We have a couple of LPN's in our class now and they do very well. Just like in any challenging program, they work to weed out the ones that need to be, and work with the ones who need a little extra help.

PM me if you want any additional info.

I really wish i knew who you were???? I am from the class that just graduated beckfield along wit fifi rockafeller, and I hope that while you are on your break you study and study and study for that d*mn ATI, because we lost 4 people on THE DAY OF PINNING from our class because of it.
