  1. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    The classes at this school are really a lot of work, I would agree to cut down ur hours to part time if you are currently full time. I currently only work one 12 hr shift a week and really needed the time esp. for the patho/fundamentals bundle and fo...
  2. Patient Care And Customer Service Are Not The Same!

    I feel that as nursing students we are taught this everytime at clinical! That literally we are going to b bad future nurses because we did not pack up a patient's bag before they discharge or changed thier tv channels for them when they got bored......
  3. Do men and women go into nursing for different reasons?

    For me, I wanted to do nursing because it is a job that I can see myself waking up to and wanting to go to work and not dreading every minute of the day and counting down till I go home. I enjoy doing IVs, talking to patients, and even doing cath's l...

    Just pick up a basic chemistry book at high school level and study from that, u can prob find one in the library. If theres a HESI book out there with a chem section, then even better!
  5. Chamberlain College of Nursing

    they go by ur ACT scores and you take your HESI at the school and they get a percentage and use it toward your acceptance. They usually like students to be at 85% and higher.

    It depends on how many transfer credits you have, if every single pre req transfers over then you have about 5 semesters which is a year and a half including summers and if tuition is about $25,000 a year then just do the math
  7. Anyone REJECTED from Chamberlain (Addison)?

    Yes I did and I have one year left till graduation :)
  8. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    This school is fully accredited and students that have graduated from here end up working in some top notch hospitals like Northwestern and Central Dupage. We get a lot of top notch clinical sites as well. Yes, the tuition is expensive, but so are t...
  9. Chamberlain College of Nursing

    For the tuition comment, my parents covered the last year out of pocket. I did not get any financial aid at all not even grants so everything was out of pocket. I may need to tho however take a few student loans out for my last year here but they wil...
  10. Chamberlain College of Nursing

    I am also a student at the Addison campus in IL. And yes, just like a user said before, ALL COLLEGES ARE FOR PROFIT! Chamberlain costs about the same price as the BSN universities in the Chicagoland area so the price wasn't such a huge shock cause we...

  12. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    Basic bio, anatomy, and chemistry...pretty much all of the basics in each
  13. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    For the math areas, there are LOTS of conversions pretty much 75% of the math sections. It ranges from army time to basic time, to chemistry like conversions where you need to find liters to milliliters and so forth.
  14. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    It is 8,000 per semester, and I get it, it is a lot of money but so are all BSN nursing schools. Find one in the Chicagoland area that is cheaper than $24,000 a yr and u get UIC which only excepts 9% of applications.
  15. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    Yes you can knocked off 2 years, you have to make sure your classes comply. I knocked off a year and a half with my transfer credits and have friends in my classes that needed only nursing classes to go..u have to make sure they comply with the schoo...

    Chamberlain is $8,000 a semester, 3x a year= comes out to $24,000 a year. Where are u getting your numbers from?
  17. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    I am a student at Chamberlain and we get updates a lot from the grads and our dean; we actually beat out 20 UIC grads at Dupage Hospital and got top honors for our clinical work at Norhtwestern Hospital. Either way there is a nursing freeze because o...
  18. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    No matter what nursing school u go to, ur credits will not transfer over to another school because every school is different. And i dont know where you will find a cheaper nursing school for ur BSN either. They are all around the same range, UIC whic...
  19. northwestern institute of health

    Well their obviously not going to tell you where your going to work, it is a different location for everybody; some might work in the ghetto, some might work in the middle of nowhere and others in very poor neighborhoods. I am in nursing school and a...
  20. Chamberlain College of Nursing - Addison

    well with the IL MAP Grant gone now, the only form of financial aid you can get here is the Pell Grant. They do offer work study and a scholarship but your EFC needs to be at 0 to like 500 to even be considered for it. But if the IL MAP Grant does co...

  22. Chamberlain Chicago Campus

    I heard that school is not accredited as an approved nursing school because it needs to graduate its first class and then the nursing school accreditations can give approval of yes or no. The addison campus is already accredited and crank grads out e...
  23. Chamberlain At Addison Il.

    chamberlain's entrance exam is about 7 parts, biology, chem, anatomy, reading, vocab, english, and math and prob one more that has been added. The math part was not too hard just conversions and ratios mostly but the chem and the anatomy sections whe...
