Is there anyone on here that is familiar with Beckfield College in Cincinnati Ohio? I will be attending there on Monday 1/6 would like to know if anyone had attended that college or now someone who have a would like to share they experience with me? I'm going in with my head held high and nose to the books! I have played around with my career options way to long :( I have been a medical assistant for 18years, I have had some GREAT experience in the medical field, but still unhappy with myself. So, I'm so hungry for my RN I will be doing the Bridge Program because that program will works for me! A little step is better than NO STEP! ....... Any Beckfield Nurses out there?!,!,

To be honest, have not heard great things about Beckfield or any for profit nursing trade school in the Cincinnati area. IMO many lack the correct educational courses and certifications needed to give you any edge in the overcrowded job market. I go to a CC and while it will take me longer than if I went to somewhere like Beckfield (3 years at part time) it's worth it to me not to pay 50k for a quick, subpar education.

Bornfornursing Sorry it took me so long to get back with you, but I have started the LPN program at Beckfield and let me tell you " I LOVE IT!!! Can you say I have some great, well educated MSN Plus PHD Instructors and my clinical instructors are all hands on!! The program is very intense!!! You will her a lot abou Beckfield College Good and Bad and I heard mostly Good things! But I went on the OBN " Ohio Board Of Nursing" website checked out the NCLEX Passing Rate/ I did a lot of research on the school myself! I know a lot of people nursing females/ males who are very happy with their education that they received from Beckfield Tri-County/Florence campus. Some of these same people have further their education through NKU " with " SOME" credits transfer into the BSN program @ NKU please check NKU website for yourself.....also the same people have been hired at Children's Hospital w/ out a BSN and UC right along at Christ hospital with a 5year contract sign saying they will have a BSN within 5 years!!! With this being said every school have their problems! College is what you make it! My program is only going to cost me 10k because I order all my books from Amazon! I try not to get any books from Beckfield! So there is a way to save on everything! Beckfield do let you know up front! So do your research on any school! Universities or Community College. You must remember these colleges or not just going to give you an education, but their in business to make $ also!

Good Luck on Your Search!!!
