question for concorde students/grads

Hey everyone,

I'm new here, this is my first post.

I have decided to go to nursing school, and I am pretty sure that I am going to go to Concorde for my ADN, but I have a couple of questions I was hoping you guys could help me with before I go in and talk to them.

First, I already have most of the pre-reqs for the community colleges, A&P, Micro, English. Does anyone know if Concorde will transfer those in, and will that result in a lighter schedule and/or cheaper tuition? Which leads to my second question, approximately what is the tuition for the RN program, and are they pretty good about helping you get financed?

My third question is what are some of the hospitals that you do clinicals in?

And finally, for Concorde RN grads, do you feel like you were well prepared to enter the field? Thanks guys, I know I can get the answers to the first three by going in and talking to them, but I won't be able to do that for a few weeks, and I would like to hear what the grads have to say about the experience (students too).:wink2:

Hey there. I graduated from concorde's ADN program in June. To answer your first question, they will accept pre req credits however some of them they won't take for one reason or another. I had taken A&P I & II, english and psych/human growth and development at a community college out here and they accepted all of my credits. I believe they look at the course descriptions to decide if they will accept them. Transferring those credits did shave off some of the tuition money, book money and time required to be there. Their first few terms are mostly pre reqs so your schedule will be lighter. The tuition when I joined was right around 38,000 and their financial aid office was very helpful in assisting me with the loans that I needed in order to attend.

Some of the clinical locations are: Nursing homes such as Jewel, Life care of Aurora, Briarwood, Cedars, Kindred and some of the hospitals are: North Suburban, Saint Joseph's, Lutheran, Porter, Denver Health, and more recently I believe some students have clinical at St Anthony Central. Many people also did psych rotation at Ft Logan state facility.

I have been graduated for about 6 weeks, have taken and passed the NCLEX exam and am now searching for a job but I do feel that my education and training at Concorde has prepared me to enter the big bad field of nursing :-)

I havent had much time to spend on this website lately so I hope this information was helpful and I will try to check back in :-) Best of luck to you!!!!:yeah:
