@pineapples303 At this point, I'm stepping away from the discussion—I wish you and anyone considering the program the very best moving forward. Take care and good luck..

Just to clarify, I didn't misread anything. North Palm did say they're in the process of accreditation with both ACCSC and ACEN—I've attached the screenshot from their official Facebook post for reference.

@pineapples303 Actually, they did mention ACEN—here's the post from the school itself stating they're "in the process of accreditation with ACCSC and ACEN.” I followed up directly with ACEN, and has no record of an application. It's wild that sharing facts gets this kind of reaction. I'm not miserable—I'm just making sure people don't waste time or money based on misleading info. If that bothers you, that says more about you than me.

@Jahar The school claims they're in the process of accreditation, so I followed up and contacted the accrediting agency directly. They told me there's no record of an application. That's not being miserable—that's doing due diligence and sharing accurate info

@Jahar I'm just stating facts—it's important for people to know the school isn't accredited by any recognized agency, only approved by the Florida Board of Nursing. That's a big difference and could affect students' future opportunities. I'm not miserable, just informed.

Did I say the school is NOT legit?? I said the school is NOT accredited

I told you guys! Something strange about North Palm. I emailed accreditation agency, and NO application has been sent from North Palm.

@Arohi sunrise school of nursing florida. I got accepted, 27k for 24 mos. However that school is not accredited either. But I know nurses who graduated there that are RNs already in Ca

@Arohi Its a fully accredited nursing school that offers both ADN and BSN programs, including an LPN-to-RN bridge option. Yes, it's a hybrid program—completed online, while labs and clinicals are held on-site . They use HESI for exams. Most of the tests are online and proctored using platforms like Proctoru. As for tuition, it varies depending on the program and location, but generally, the LPN-to-RN (ADN) program costs around $40,000–$50,000. They have FAFSA, and other different loan options. if u are already an LVN, you can test out on MDC, health assessment and Med surg. If u pass, they will remove 2 major course from your program plan and will only have to attend 3 clinicals instead of 5. Those without pre preqs you have a total of 8 semesters ( 4 mos each). If u have pre reqs maybe 6-7 semesters

@Arohi correction ACEN non CCN *****

@Arohi Northpalm is approved by the Florida Board of Nursing, but it's not accredited by any recognized accrediting agency. I'm from California as well, and I originally planned to attend Sunrise School of Nursing, but their ASN program takes 24 months to complete. Then I came across Northpalm and scheduled an appointment with them. They asked me to submit my prerequisites, high school diploma, and other credentials. Since I'm already an LVN, they waived the TEAS test, and because I had completed most of my prerequisites, they gave me a 9-month timeline to finish the ASN program. It sounded ideal—shorter duration, and the tuition even included hotel accommodations and transportation, which made it even more appealing. However, it all started to feel too good to be true, so I decided to do some research. I visited their Facebook page and began messaging a few people. I reached out to one student on Yelp, one on Facebook, and another on TikTok. They responded at first but then ended up blocking me, which was really strange. Here's what CCN had to say about the school... So I have decided to go to Nightingale, I have also thought about ICHS.

I did already, I was supposed to start in June because it is only 9 mos for me since I am already an LVN. But it did seem too good to be true. I emailed CCNE and they told me that no application has been received from North Palm. Not a single application. If they said they are in the process, then they shouldve submitted an application.

The school lied tho??? they said they are in the process of accreditation. I emailed CCNE, no application have been received from NorthPalm

Exactly! No school

By the way, I also reached out to a few students from North Palm—about four in total—but three of them blocked me on TikTok, Yelp, and Messenger, which is really strange. It's making me question whether the school is legitimate. After confirming with ACEN, I contacted North Palm about it, but they never responded. I also tried calling the school, but no one answered Very odd... if you seach the location in Google maps, there is literally no school there, I called the nail salon where the school is pinned, they said there is no north palm nearby.
