New England Tech in Warwick, RI

Published

I was wondering if anyone had any information about this school. Their program is fairly new and not accredited as of yet. So, im kinda skeptical about this program. It would be nice if someone could respond to this that is in the program.

i can understand everyone's concern for the program because of cost and accredidation and with that being said i have no doubt that the school will become accredited, as for cost, yes it is expensive but what private school isnt? it comes out to about 25000 a year which unless you go to a public/state school you going to be looking at the same price. when you take into account the EXTREME difficulty of getting into nursing schools now a days the price is worth it especially with the amount you make once you become an RN. If you have the grades and are a top notch student i would encourage going somewhere cheaper a 1oo% cause you have a good shot but not everyone is top notch adn they are very selective. I was at RIC last year as a transfer and unless i got probably in the range of a 3.2 or better i know i wont be considered. new england tech's nursing program was a godsend and i was accepted yesterday into the program and i could not be happier, i start nursing school next month. and one more thing i dont think anyone should bash the program because truthfully no one knows anything about it yet because its soo new, there is no way a judgement can be passed that it is not the best education, i am sure i will graduate with a great education

HEY! Congrats on being accepted! I did everything, they told me yesterday I was accepted, then called an hour later and made a mistake and said I wasn't I am on a wait list. Totally bummed. But if you don't mind me asking, what was your overall score on the NET ? I am just curious what the scores were of some of the people who were admitted. Congratulations!!

Hmm, I will look into that. I am going to take the Kaplan again for October for NEIT, so hopefully that will work out!

p.s. I started a thread about NEIT in the Rhode Island region section of this site in order to find out more about the program.

Wow, I cannot believe how expensive this program is! I am a senior nursing student at RIC and will pay far less for my entire BSN. RIC does not have a waiting list, but is highly competitive --so if you have good grades I would encourage applying to RIC or URI's program. I can't imagine paying that kind of money for a two year degree! :(

Compared to a state-supported institutions, such as CCRI, RIC and URI, tuitions at independent institutions such as New England Tech, which receive no funding from the State of Rhode Island, are always going to be higher. Fortunately, New England Tech has the lowest tuition of any independent college in RI.:up: As a matter of fact, its tuition is lower than what students who are not residents of Rhode Island pay at the University of Rhode Island.

Hey, I am looking into this school and I am wondering, to those who have been accepted, what was your GPA at the time of being accepted? Also, did they take your transfer credits?
