It may just have started in your area but in my area it has been around for several years. Why would you prefer to go to a 'program that just started', one with an unproven track record, one that is outrageously expensive, rather than to an established, respected, fully accredited program? Your career and future job prospects are too important to gamble with.

The director of nursing where I work does not think highly of ITT tech nursing program. I would avoid it if I were you, and check out an established accredited program. You don't want to go through the program and possibly have lots of student loans to pay, and not be able to find a job because ITT's program is not what it should be. Plus ITT's credits will not transfer to a regular university so if you want to further your education later on to progress in your career, you would have to start from scratch.

ITT Tech's nursing program just started within the last year or two. They asked our head of patient care services education department to endorse it and she would not.

The nurse administrators and educators were I work do not think highly of ITT's nursing program and would not hire anyone from there. Also, ITT's credit will not transfer to regular colleges, so if you want to pursue a higher degree later, you will probably have to start from scratch. Just something to consider if you want to advance in your career later in life. You might want to contact the HR office or nursing administration office of some hospitals in your area to see how they view a nursing degree from ITT Tech.

I would stay away from ITT Tech. The nurses administrators and educators where I work do not think highly of the program and would not hire any nurses from there. Plus if you want to go on to a bachelor's or master's degree later, your ITT credits would not transfer and you would have to start from scratch. Just something to consider as you may want to advance your career later in life.

Stay away from ITT Tech. The nursing administrators and educators at the hospital where I work are very disturbed about ITT's program. They refused to endorse it when asked to do so by ITT. I know they will not hire any nurses with 'degrees' from there. Be warned.
