Hello ruhi, It is scary esp. when you hear & read all the stuff in the news. I will not say it is a waste of money but the program is still in the infant stage. This will be the fourth class. It was extremely hard and frustrating. You do alot of...

Yes, that is true. They are up for accreditation in October. As, a recent grad you should look into more than one school. And also note this program is not one year.

I think it is quiet because those who are in the program are so busy studying they dont have time to post and those who moved on are trying to find a new program to apply to. Alot of schools are closing down in Philly, the amount of student wanting t...

More than half of my friends are RN and they all have a jobs. Diploma to Assoc. Degrees. None of them have their BSN and only a few want to get it. They need nurses. Nursing is the only field right now that is still trying to hire and is not firing a...

They do have a low NCLEX rate but again the school has only be in session two years. I was also told that the students in the first class had a hard time passing the NET test so pasting the NCLEX would be a problem. They low the admission rate on the...

Yes your education is worth it and you must be a wise consumer. Frankford is a good program. I interviewed with them about 3 years ago. The staff member that interviewed me was negative about single mothers and working in the program. She told me I w...

I think people are really looking at this whole program in a very negative way. I think is great that 20 passed and 12 passed the NCLEX. Good for them. They are RN's and working. That is the Goal. They only have two classes. Second, if you are waiti...

I got that news too from a friend going to the school. God always works things out. Stay faithful. :redpinkhe

Also keep in mind..the school is the tool, the nurse is the person. Pretty much all the friends are nurses. In different areas and different levels. Some are RN's some have their BSN and MSN. I love them all and they went to very, very good schools a...

I think it was wonderful of you to offer YOUR help. You didn't have to. That tells me you are the type of nurse that I want to have working next to me. One that is willing to help whenever possible. I will be calling on you for help. Thank you again.

I know several people who are starting the program in Jan. Two where in prev. nursing schools and one just starting her nursing education. I believe the program has it's problems but to be honest all nursing schools have issues. Montco changed there ...

I agree with you. I too was in nursing school before and you are right you have to do a lot of work yourself. The ones that don't reach beyond the insturctor or lectures don't learn as much. We all learn different and an instructor can't reach all. Y...

I total agree. Everybody stay encouraged no matter what program you go into. Remember all programs have good and bad issues. You must work hard and pray for the best.

Thank you for the information and insight. I am taking in what you revealed. Some of this information I was aware of. Thank you again and good luck to you.

No I checked my voicemail, no call from Bill Deane. Good luck.

I know what you mean. I am feeling so down today. I was online looking for money yesterday. The problem I am having is when I go to the lender's websites or call them they don't have the school as a partipating school so they can't lend money. If yo...

I know it is so crazy. But I will find money.

Congrats to you too. The tuition is the BIGGEST issue right now. I am also stressed about income for a year. I am to afraid to work and keep up with schoolwork and assignments. I was blessed with this I don't want anything to mess it up. I am working...

The tution is the BIGGEST issue right now. Congrats on all that are accepted into St. Joe's upcoming year. Even with private loans it is still hard to secure one. The school recommends using Sallie Mae but even with a cosigner with excellent credit I...

Has anyone accepted to St. Joe's for this upcoming year secured a loan for tution.

The test was not to bad. I really suggest using the NET book. I took it twice. The 1st time with a random nursing exam book and the 2nd time with the NET book. Higher score with the NET book. The assistant Ros is relaxing and laided back. She helps t...

The problem is they do not receive federal or state funding. So you can not use Stafford Loans or any of the fin.aid programs. The only payment option is private loans.

I am entering the St. Joe's in the Jan. 2009 class. The problem is they do not receive federal or state funding. So you can not use Stafford Loans or any of the fin.aid programs. The only payment option is private loans. With the way things are now t...

Congrats!!! I am starting the third class beginning in Jan.5. Any advise to lend to a future St. Joe's graduate. :nuke:
