Hello Board,
As you can see, this is my first post on this board. I've learned quite a bit from reading this board the past few months... so I thought that I would ask for some advice.
I am a former paramedic, have my BS in Psych/Bio, have all of my prereqs, and have been on the waiting list for an MCC program for about six months. I've considered the Banner program and have been to the info session... but it really doesn't seem like something I want to do.
After reading this board, I'm convinced that I'm going to be waiting another year at least before I get in. So now I'm considering the private route. Of course, the money is an issue but not working at that salary point for another year or more is an even bigger issue. I do realize the predatory nature of these schools and also of their subpar reputations... but I'm still going to look into them.
For the most part, I've ruled out EBSN from reading this board alone... but any comments are still welcome. I spoke with PIMA on the phone a few weeks ago and literally laughed out loud when they told me the tuition... so they're out also.
So, I'm down to Everest and Apollo. I haven't yet been to either one of these schools but will probably go in the next week. At least Everest would talk with me on the phone and give me details about the program. With Apollo, I haven't been able to get anything from them... it seems you have to go to their info session before they'll give you any info.
So, I turn to this board for advice... Apollo vs Everest?... can anyone compare/contrast these two schools for me???
thanks for reading...
