Stone Academy Nursing program in CT

Published

Hello,

I was a pre-nursing major ,but the opportunity came up for me to apply to a LPN program. I passed the pre-admission exam today so all I have to do is apply to the program and also meet with financial aid. If I get accepted into Stone Academy and make it through I will then finish taking the pre-requites for the BSN program. Does any one out there now about Stone Academy Nursing program in CT if you do, how did you find the program to be?

Hello Bet0913,

First, I would like to say congradulations on getting accepted to Stone Academy Nursing program. I just took the Accuplacer exam last Tuesday and I passed it, but If I get accepted I won't be going until October ( that's if I decide to go there). I would like to tell you that I am a little concerned about Stone's nursing program as I have not heard good things. First of all the school is not accredited (BBB). When I was at the school last week I was able to speak with a few students. And they said that the school may no longer have the Child /Maternal rotation. And they may no longer have the clinical rotation in Durham, CT ( I am not sure what that one is). Also, the students had only four sites that they go to for the clinical. If I were you I would find out more about the school clinical rotations. Because you will want to have enough clinical experience so that when you find a job as a nurse you will feel that you are prepared. I am also going to Porter & Chester and Lincoln Tech this week to find out about their LPN program. Though I am having second thoughts about LPN where talking about $30,0000+ when I could go for ADN for have that and have a degree. Perhaps maybe you could consider going for RN.

Thank you for responding. I think that I will go by the school in the evening and talk to a couple of students to see what's going on. I need to look into there accreditation. This may sound stupid but what's abn?
