Many online complaints. Used to be a different name I think center for allied health and nursing. For profit school just like Lincoln Tech. Not accredited simply BoN approved. You can check NCLEX pass rates on the BoN website. With the limited opportunities for new grad LPNs in NJ it's more economical to attend a public county vocational school. (Many traditional LPN jobs are filled by cheaper MAs and RNs wiling to work for less $$) The cost of the private schools of $30,000+ and the hard sell need to be considered for a per diem job paying $18-20/hr to start.

There's a thread in this forum discussing this school. Good luck with whatever you decide
