Union County College: Trinitas vs. Muhlenberg?

U.S.A. New Jersey

Published

I'm confused, what is the difference between the two? Is one track easier or harder? Different pre-requisites? Which has a better reputation?

I am considering the LPN-RN track, FYI.

I've looked into both in the past, and from what I've heard and read Trinitas is extremely hard and needs your total devotion to be completed, Muhlenberg seems to be the preferred choice for most people. Most people say that you shouldn't bother with Trinitas unless you have all of your prereqs completed before entering the program. If I'm not mistaken Muhlenberg has a 70% passing grade, Trinitas has a 75% passing grade. As of 2012 Muhlenberg has a 93.91% pass rate for the NCLEX, Trinitas has a 94.66%. Trinitas has no wait list, they send you an invitation based on a points system. Muhlenberg has an interview, letters of recommendation and a test to enter. I've never experienced Muhlenberg first hand, but many people say that it's an easier program to complete. Best of luck in whatever you choose :)
