Is anyone else enrolling in Unitek's LVN program this fall? I'm starting the 'pre-req' portion 5/2020.

Ohh OK I’m doing the day program just waiting to hear from someone it’s very frustrating especially when they say a few days and it turns into a week

I felt like that too, when I was waiting.

[NurseShae]

Hey has anyone heard anything yet ?

[aleighlong, CNA]

Nope! Nothing ?

I finally heard back today and was offered a spot in the 7/28 evening program

That’s good !! Congratulations!

@LovelyRose916 Yes we will! I'm excited. @NurseShae have you heard anything? Who's your admissions person?

[NurseShae]

No not yet still waiting.. her name is Tammy I’m assuming because it’s for the day it’s taking a little longer I’m hoping that’s the case

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone can give me some insight on the Unitek admissions process. I have a few prerequisites done but not all of them (took Anatomy years ago but would need to re-take, I haven't taken Chem, Phys or Micro yet). I've spoken with Carrington and their program is tempting since there are no prereqs and it is 1 yr to complete, but they don't seem very organized and they definitely seem like they just want your money. Unitek seems much more invested in your success which I like. However the Unitek rep tried to sell me on doing the MA program first, which I just can't do. Is it really necessary to do their MA program in order to pass their prereq class? How difficult would it be to pass the prereq class by doing some prep studying beforehand (I don't have previous healthcare experience). Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Hey the pre req course is mostly terminology but they do dosage calculations as well and some bio it’s 2 weeks and a little fast paced but I’m sure u will do fine it’s not that hard

Hi everyone, 

Did anybody take the SLE-Q test before the prerequisite course begin?

I am planning to apply to LVN and they are now required for people to take the SLE-Q test. I have never heard of this test and it is supposed to be get done in 8 minutes for 30 questions, and the cutline is 17 for LVN.

Does anybody know about this test?
