6 Best Bsn Programs In Albuquerque, NM (2022 Updated)

I highly recommend Pima Medical Institute for anyone that wants to succeed in the field of radiography. The instructors are very knowledgeable, friendly, and well respected in their profession, and the clinical and program directors are very helpful and are always there for you every step of the way. What sets Pima apart from other radiography programs, is that the students have the opportunity to gain clinical experience in special modalities, and they will even assist with job placement! Pima Medical Institute definitely sets the standards for quality education!Jennifer Mirabal

Hello, graduate of the Class of 2022 Dental hygiene program here. As we were starting the program the covid shut down happened. The instructors and program director where very attentive to how they could make the program work. As much as we were adapting to school online, so were they. I personally felt the support from all instructors. As per clinic, I feel my skills evolved every semester and we are challenged to push ourselves more. I am grateful and able to practice what I learned in school at my office. I love my career and would definitely recommend it.Daisy Rodriguez

I went through the LPN program last year in the height of Covid. It was challenging but the support from the teachers was great! They did their absolute best trying to figure things out and help us figure things out as well. This program is very hard work but the amount of effort you as a student, shows in your personal outcome. Special thanks to Mrs. Vigil, she gave me such confidence in myself as a nurse and my own abilities, truly an amazing human. Pima is in good hands.Allycia Wade

I’ve attended Carrington College in Albuquerque for three programs! I started with Medical Assisting, which, after completing, was helped with externship placement, getting my certification, and job placement. After graduation from Medical Assisting, I went right into the Associates in Health Studies program and after graduating from that program, entered Medical Coding and Billing…… which, at the time of writing this, I have successfully completed and have just ordered my cap and gown for graduation!! After this, my last program will be the nursing program! Carrington has been absolutely instrumental in not only providing me with a solid education in healthcare, but also taught me the importance of professionalism, showing up early every day no matter what, the all-important resume writing, job interview techniques along with placement, and preparing me to take my certification tests in each program. During each course of study at Carrington, I learned just how vital certification actually is to our careers! Samantha guided me through the externship process after classes and was available for any questions, and words of encouragement along the way to completion! Paul in Financial Aid, was a sweetheart who walked me through the financial portion of all three of my programs! Bonnie Nolen directs programs with a great enthusiasm for furthering one’s education, and was always available for any questions, concerns, or just a much needed pep talk that kept me focused through my program! Bonnie knew quite well the many issues that can arise for those of us switching careers and returning to school! Thank you Carrington for giving me an amazing and wonderful experience! I highly recommend!R G

Carrington College in Albuquerque is the best! The staff is amazing, from ms. Terry always having the front smelling wonderful, along with a pleasant greeting/farewell each morning. To Ms. Bonnie checking up on you in class and sharing her stories. To Sonia and Kimberly working hard to demonstrate what professionalism looks like, scheduling mock interviews and getting us ready for externship. Of course saving the best for last, Ms.Ash is the absolute best Medical Assistant instructor! If you believe in yourself and put in the work she will teach you so much. The hands on experience and all the staffs hard work gets you ready for the real world workforce & I am so thankful I picked Tuesday & Thursday morning class. Choosing Carrington College to become a Medical Assistant was the best choice I could make.Brandy Ruiz-Cervantes

Carrington College Albuquerque is the best place to go if you are looking for support to get you through your program. I got support from everyone on campus, from the Administrative Assistant Mrs. Terry, to my Program Director Mrs. Bonnie. I have had the pleasure of having an amazing instructor, Mrs.Ash, who believed in me from the beginning and I achieved more than I thought I would when I first started. Having the hands on experience in the classroom really helps you when you are out on the job. I have learned so much from the Carrington College staff and I know I can always count on them when I need a helping hand.Wynona Duboise

This school is aweful. The teachers are extremely disrespectful towards the students and the environment is not that great. The bullying and cyber bullying is high and the students are just so rude to one another. The academics are alright but the staff does not try to help their students who are failing. If your failing, they take away the students lunch time which does help them at all. For parents who are looking to put their child at this high school, I highly recommend that you don't.Anonymous Person

The Early College Academy/Career Enrichment Center is truly an amazing school in every aspect. It is highly recognized and respected within its district. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to better their future during high school. The opportunities can be endless. Give the administration a call and, I'm sure, they'll be more than happy to help you and make you feel welcomed and comfortable!Manuel Marquez

The learning quality is top-notch, and the staff are attentive and caring, and the students are well-behaved. Other than the frequent fecal-smearing on the walls, homeless break-ins, and the occasional microwave explosion, it is a healthy learning enviroment.Alexander Cortez

I'll use a quote from John Updike, which describes the University of New Mexico College of Nursing perfectly: It's a "farce, a melee of blunderers laboring to murky purpose under corrupt and platitudinous superiors.” The BSN, MSN, and DNP instructors are circling in a holding pattern, waiting for retirement, and certainly not keeping up-to-date the latest research and clinical practices. There is no PhD program, at least, not one worth mentioning. The previous dean was incompetent. The current dean is both incompetent and amoral, often displaying a complete disregard for university policies. For example, she has hired her former associates as faculty members at exorbitant, taxpayer-supported six-figure salaries. Several of these individuals have little or no university teaching or research experience. Instead, the current dean has bullied and coerced other faculty members into granting tenure for her associates, even though her associates fail to meet the college's own standards for academic promotion and tenure – a blatant display of the worst kind of cronyism at the public's expense, in one of the poorest states in the nation. If you have no other options for obtaining your nursing degree, then you are stuck with this place and must try to make the best of it. If you are looking for employment at a nursing school, you should run away from this place, as fast as you can, toward any other place of employment. The UNM CON is a College of Last Resort for both prospective students and employees.Nayeli Rayen
