Hello, has anyone attended or heard of Premier International College in Florida? If so, can you tell me your experience? I'm from California so I just want to make sure that this school is legitimate. It sounds similar to International College of Health Sciences. I called Premier and they said that it's a 2 year online ASN program, less than 2 years if pre-reqs are completed prior to admission. Clinicals are in-person at the end of each term; 10 days, 12 hours each shift.

Are you still attending or did you graduate?… yes I'm so terrified to do the math and really hate it..that's helpful to know that someone else feels the same.
how long is each class ? Like a month or two long? ...
also is attending here doable if you're working fulltime?
thanks so much for your help I appreciate it!
I'm still attending. I'm in the second half of med Surg. Each class is three months. You have to be present in class at 3:00 PM. A lot of people are working full time but it's pretty hard but doable. I work 6 days a week but I have a flexible schedule.
Does PIC accept Straighterline?
Talking Tina said:Hello,
Does PIC make any exceptions for full time working nurses (leaving the session early for work)?
Sadly no. I was enrolled to the october 2nd class. I was on a travel assignment and the facility went on strike ,so They changed the shifts we were working for three days . I called the school to let them know the week before school started that for the first three days I couldn't attend live class, but would watch the recordings and complete my work . .They kept telling me the registrar would make a decision. The Tuesday the semester started I called because I still had all my class log in but there were no classes . They told me I would not be able to start this semester and to try again in January . I was very upset at how unorganized things were handled , I quit my full time job to be able to go to this program. I will be returning to my old nursing program instead thats a little longer . My advice is to find another program , Nightingale College is a good program that is flexible .
Lavender Love said:I'm doing well. Currently in med surg 1 and passing the class. All classes are online and clinicals are in person once a quarter. I was scared too,but I didn't get into my local program and didn't want to wait since it's lottery with no guarantees. Online isn't for everyone as well as you are disclipined and stay on top of everything you will do fine.
HI @Lavender Love , thanks for sharing your experience. Can I email you with more questions!!?
Lavender Love said:Yes it depends on how many classes you are taking essentially they say you have to be available for classes Monday to Friday. Your schedule will change each quarter . My first quarter I had classes Tues to Thursday. Second quarter I had classes Mon, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday. This quarter I have classes Monday, Wedsneday, Friday.
Hello. Can I email you so I can ask more questions? If that's okay. I'm interested in attending. I just haven't found anyone that actually goes to the school until I stumbled across this website
