Last 2 comments hit the nail on the head! 100% mine and everyone else’s experience.

Honestly, not bad at all! 100% doable and 0 regrets. Pay your money ... lots of self-studying. Welcome to the club! LOL. I can’t wait to sit for boards

I am also looking to start this cohort (late entry) and I too questions things... however, approved=RN. I have seen some nursing programs in the past that are store front. They were accredited. I don't have a concern for what the actual school looks like, as most of my learning will be done online. I think this is a new program regardless of what the company was in the past. Hence, no NCLEX scores.

Honestly, I wasn’t asked any difficult questions other than what hours I can work. Depending on how short staffed your area is, they will gladly hire a new grad. Don’t underestimate your worth! I was low-balled and I had to negotiate my pay twice. Keep an open mind and it’s ok if you realize it’s not for you. You’re going to see a lot of trauma (inmates or “patients” stabbing each other, injuries from guards, suicides, overdose, rape etc.) and I’m not sure what kind of clinical experience you have, but be ready for anything. Don’t take anyone, including coworkers at face value and always watch your back! It’s your license. If you don’t feel safe, don’t do it.
