20 Best Bsn Programs In Chicago, IL (2022 Updated)

No a good place to take a home inspector class you have 60 hours to read a huge book, and triton college push you to get brand new book but all the material they show you is from 1900, therefore the teacher encourage you to just read the book because their old material doesn't Match with the new book, nothing is updated. Plus If you miss 1 point on your exam you lose the whole course and have to do it again because they don't give you another chance to take another test even for one point and expected to pay all again.so you waste your time,your money..and all over it the instructor says that if English is not your first language you are in the wrong place and makes comments all the time about people's accents. Othe places help you pass the state exam n everything.. Don't waste your time and money taking home inspector course at triton collegeNkos

The worst school to even inquire for a program.. they will charge you and send your info to the credit Breau if you don't pay!! The cashiers will emails you everyday and night and they will make you pay for not attending classes that you never even registered for! Didn't go into classes because it was covid and never even attended for any class online but they want me to pay for not providing any serviceJexlee Charles (Charles10)

Clean, friendly, cool school. I was in the A building, the lady in room A126 was VERY nice and quiet since it was a testing room. They even have FREE feminine products in restrooms for women. I asked about future classes and the lady who helped me initially was VERY pleasant and turned her computer screen around to show me how to navigate the schools website!! All around, GREAT experience!brianne Fondren

Terrible experience lately. Have been taking sculpture but always have known a seething ill will exists. There is an undercurrent poisoning the atmosphere as if some sort of competition is going on rather than artistic creation. If it had not happened so often I would not complain but whatever I work on generally gets moved to the back of the line to be cast whenever. It doesn't feel good. I had put up with it because I live in a tiny trailer and really enjoyed having room to sculpt. It was just a pipe dream I had after I retired but now it isn't fun being the object of attitude manipulation and derision as if I have a case of dementia and am unable to discern the actions of this coterie. This is going to be my last class if I can cast what I did in wax last semester and I'll find some other medium rather than allowing the insult to my psyche to continue. That would really prove I'm the fool certain people have attempted to define me as having become. Take heed. Too many folks want to step on your face if you let them.Teresa Wendorff

Covid vaccine review. Very organized. It all went smoothly. Thank you to all the workers there! First, there are a few check-in/screenings. Then you meet with a military personal to give your insurance and personal info to. Then it’s shot time. After a couple min wait I was in the chair. Monitored for 15 mins and second dose appointment made. I arrived around 10:00am and was back in my car by 10:40am.Erica S

This was truly a great experience, there were support from The Military Servicemen,and Servicewomen directing, and explaining our next step. We were register, given our injection, made our next appointment, and taking our 15 min to watch for sidereffect within 1/hour. Very well organized.Alberta Freeman

I have been a student of DePaul University – Law College since 2019. Before joining DePaul I was contemplating between DePaul and other Universities, I am so happy I made the right choice to join DePaul. Not only is it a prestigious University with many famous alumni names, but also because it is a University that has made the list of the top best Universities for many years. Depaul has the best facility you can hope to study under, the administration are very helpful and my advisor, is one of the best, always available whenever I needed assistance, guidance or help. If you are a graduate of DePaul, you can be sure that employers will want to add you to their staff. Being part of DePaul, is being part of a large educational family. There are two campuses, the main one is located in Lincoln Park and the other one is located in the Loop, right in the heart of the business hub, if you are attending College of Law or College of Business. There are two huge libraries in the Loop campus, with access to Starbucks, as well as to, Barnes and Nobles. In both Colleges you have cafeterias amd study lounges. There is a Toastmasters club at DePaul and many other groups and clubs to join. Also, DePaul offers a help center, fpr students who may need extra help with certain classes, as well as, a writing center for whenever you need your essays reviewed, with feedback and assistance in improving it before submission. With all of the above and more, I could not possibly list all of the things DePaul os known for, or offers, but I can tell you one thing, if you happen to choose DePaul and become accepted, be sure you are part of the many successful people who will graduate with pride. DePaul is my University and hopefully it will be yours.Yazan Al-Khuzai

You can be a full fledged patriotic American, but just because your parents travel and you may have a foreign transcript (from high school/ middle school) you are deemed an international student. To add insult to injury this particular issue entailed the student already having graduated from a neighboring community college. Yet still, they are deemed international. An obvious protocol set in place to guzzle money out of the student. Wasn’t even thrilled about their level of academics to begin with, so not having this school as an option isn’t a loss in the slightest for our family. I appreciate their immediate display of a lack of sensical protocol, because it made us deem this school unfit without wasting any further time. Thanks DePaul!The RE: Brand

Hispanic Heritage event went on without a hitch. Free of Problems and controversy. Entertainment was Great Food was Awesome. The Highlight was the introduction of the Main Speakers The New Era Young Lord's. Also some Associates and Friends from there Early Year's. The Bomba group provided good Entertainment and a Festive Atmosphere. In the Middle Sixties you could count the Minorities attending DePaul. The all played on the Basketball team. Vast improvements have been made. Opening Enrollment and and Opputunity. We can Thank Groups like the Young Lord's who brought to the light the Contridiction's. Great Job Latino Students.Rory Guerra

Trinity Christian College has great education and dedicated professors and staff. I know the college is trying to work on being more diverse and educate its students on diversity and the beauty of when everyone accepts differences. I found it incredibly difficult to be a minority here even though I was adopted into a Dutch family. I know so many of my Hispanic friends struggled as well to fit in. This college is perfect for you if you grew up in a small, white neighborhood and had Christian education all your life. The college is very cliquey and has lots of white students, so if you grew up in a different background, you will find it difficult to adjust. A lot of the students aren’t open minded to different cultures/backgrounds, and it makes it very difficult to make friends. The white students tend to just make friends with other white students. I wish I had picked a different college for this reason.Lydia

Awesome place to learn and great professors who are more than willing to help and get to know you. There are great dorms with a lot of space and a pretty relaxed campus atmosphere but if you want more excitement you can make it happen as well. Great education, science and business programs as well. I took off one star only because of some of the girls here formed an annoying blond christian group who are super fake but that's only a small portion of our amazing students on campus. I found my best friends here and I am so thankful I went here Lots of intelligent students who are ready to learn and better serve our Lord out in the world.Eric RES

Trinity Christian College well they shouldn't of even call it that since it's a fake Christian College. This school is an absolute joke. Their admissions office is an absolute joke, I had my transcripts sent from my school and they would constantly email how they were never sent. School is very overpriced for the quality of education that you can just find else where for cheaper and better. Don't bother even wasting your time at this fake of Christian university. Overpriced, fake, and annoying! Good luck and don't waste your time here :).Jordan Broerman

This review is purely based on my experiences and what I witnessed. If you are planning on attending this “institution” in the pursuit of an education degree, then this is a great place for that, otherwise pay a little more and go to either Loyola, NU, U of C or save money and go to a state school. Favoritism is absolutely rampant within the university as well as subjective grading (e.g. A.D.). If you are on a sports team, you are guaranteed a 3.0 average (this is a fact). I have never witnessed so much cheating in my entire life, until I attended here. The worst person I had to ever deal was in the Sociology Department (i.e. E.W.). “The reason why black people are in jail is because they are angry”, yes he said this. Overall the administration are not nice people. Honestly, if I had to do it all over again, I would have gone to a state school. The sad thing about this place, the student body exhibits a lot of ageism. Meaning, if you are over 27 years old go to a different place.Steve Gonzalez

I made this review because we had a trip to this university. Mary was our tour guide. She was super nice and professional. The entrance is clean, there’s a map of the property next to the entrance, and I like the garden next to the entrance too. I really like the Butler Room because it looks good and old fashioned. The cafeteria is big enough and it surely doesn’t look like a high school cafeteria. The Gallery Lounge looks fantastic and colorful. Scholars den is a comfy, well fashioned, and a good place to study in. There’s a statue of Saint Francis Xavier it’s in the Mercy Ministry.3b0p

Don't go here if you're not a football player or majoring in nursing! This school is garbage! I majored in music education and piano performance. The professors didn't give a damn about their students. The campus was garbage too! Goose poop everywhere you walk! Dirty lake water! Dorm water was different colors as if it was sponsored by Skittles (I kid you not!) My dorm room was literally a janitors closet! You're better off going elsewhere for school than SXU. Again, unless you want to be a nurse or doctor.Brandon Sanford

I went to this school back in 2015-2016. I was living near the school at the time, but I had to move over 4 hours away after escaping domestic violence. This school hires professors that do not want to see domestic violence victims succeed. Put your money elsewhere. Here is my story: Even with my broken wrist, I managed to complete the courses and coursework, and for a time, the professors were understanding of my situation, since I was not cleared to go back to work yet and was relying on my financial aid to pay for basic things like my phone and my health bills related to my wrist. I ended up getting cleared to go back to work, and had the job opportunity of a lifetime present itself to me. I accepted so I could get back on my feet. However, this was around the same time I had to complete one of my first residency requirements. My student adviser at the time was willing to work with me and found a course that I could take to meet my work life needs. However, it was the only option available to me. Since I had to leave for training for two weeks, the work campus did not allow personal business to be conducted on their computers, which included school work. I emailed my professor, and explained to him the situation that I was going to be gone for training when the class began and explained to him my predicament, asking for a compromise so I wouldn't lose my job. Part of the coursework was to attend GoToMeeting lectures. However, due to the nature of my work, I was unable to stream these lectures as no recording cameras were allowed. I explained all of this to him in e-mails. He did not listen to my emails, giving me responses that made it seem like he wasn't even reading my e-mails, and forwarded me back to the student adviser and washed his hands of it. Ultimately, after enduring a layover at an airport after training had finished, this professor expected me to attend a Go-To-Meeting class with two hours of sleep, then berate me for my lack of participation, after explaining to him my job's requirements and rules, and what had happened since a hurricane caused a delay and lengthy layover on my flight. Thankfully, I am working now, but I wished I never had attend this school. This school only put me further in debt and now I can't even attend the school I want.Reika Chan

I attended 9-11 years ago, so hopefully this has changed. The school psychology program was weirdly punitive. They shamed people for not knowing things like how to dress professionally instead of giving them concrete advice for what they expected. (This is classist.) They required us to be over-the-top obedient to professors and supervisors, even if they were doing something unethical. Meanwhile, they taught how kids do better with a strengths-based approach in which they are listened to. This is true and does not stop when a person turns 18. The professors make students retake classes and redo practicum hours for disagreeing or expressing concern. So students have to pay extra money to learn to suppress their critical thinking. They encourage students to think about "best practices" in their first year practicum. But in the second year their response to problems at practicum sites is "that's just how it is". I was discouraged to get involved with anything "political" like the teachers' strike and campaign to replace campus police officers with counselors because "no one will want to hire you". Their answer to disparities between wealthy suburban districts and underfunded districts like Chicago's was "don't work at CPS if you don't like it". 0/10 Do not recommend.Erin Rusmi

From the Counseling Psychology program perspective, my experience have been exceptional! From the knowledge of the professors to the structured placement process and classroom agendas, I love it! It has been a life changer for me, considering what I’ve learned during my 2 1/2 years here. The instructors are very knowledgeable and have experience on the subjects they’re teaching. You are provided a professional development coach to help maintain stability in classes and graduate on time. Someone is always there to answer questions or help in ways they can. All staff is professional and lead towards the process of your professional development as well . Classes are flexible and class sizes are comfortable ( max 15 students unless blended). I’m currently considering my Phd from here as well.Nia85 Moons

I have attended Chamberlain University College of Nursing in Addison IL, since May of 2016 and I have loved every minute of it! I recently Graduated from Chamberlain in September 2020, it is truly a dream come true. I have attended several Colleges and always felt like just a number but, at Chamberlain I was made to feel like what I was preparing for will make a difference in the world. All of the staff at Chamberlain are caring, supportive, and very helpful. I remember my very first day of Nursing school, President Snow was at the front doors welcoming the students to the school. I was so impressed because none of the schools I attended previously gave a chance to meet and converse with the President, I thought that was cool. That was not the only time I had seen and spoke with her, she walked through the halls everyday greeting and talking with the students. She took me under her wing and helped me fly! Attending Chamberlain never felt like a job or something I just had to do. Being at Chamberlain was like being with a very large group of friends and family and I looked forward to going to class and attending all the extracurricular activities and the many celebrations the school provided! Don't get me wrong Nursing school is the hardest and most challenging thing I have ever accomplished but as long as you stay focused and diligent, it can be done! It felt good to walk into the school for class or a new session and know that everyone was on the same page with the same goal in mind. When you attend a University like Chamberlain which focuses on Nursing, you are never really alone in the struggle and there is always someone to help. All of my Professors were very knowledgeable and supportive, they always got back to me promptly and returned my emails and calls. They always made time for one on one meetings to review content and get extra support. The Center for Academic Success (CAS) has an amazing support system and there is always someone there willing to help! All the Advisors are very helpful with keeping you up to date with current events, managing loans, and registering for classes (which can be a challenge at times) among many other things. My Advisor Crystal Chatman is an amazing woman, very caring and supportive. She never failed to answer my emails and return my calls promptly and the best thing, she knows the struggles of Nursing school are real. She always inspired me and supported me with her kind and heart felt words. Chamberlain is a pricey school however, the benefits and support you receive are worth every penny. I did my research as far as pricing goes and I found that compared with other schools the cost is around the same when it is all said and done. To take general classes, Nursing classes, and the obtain a bachelors degree cost the same as compared to taking it in one program and finishing with all of them at once. If I had it to do all over again, I would choose Chamberlain! Thank you to all the staff who became more like family, I will never forget the caring and support I received.Tracy Wortman

I was interested in the nursing program in Addison. The advisor for that program is Cory Vlahos. I tried so many times to call her email her so she can help and nothing. She never responded to my emails or never called me back. I filled out the Fafsa, I sent all my transcripts in and I just waited and nothing. I complained about Cory and then she finally called me back. But I was working so I couldn't talk. She said she would call to schedule something and she never did. I tried calling and emailing her again numerous of times after that and she never reached out to me again!! I called one last time and spoke to an admissions advisor Cynthia Kasimov who Said she would help me and then forgot to call me lol I also had to call her back. She gave me an attitude when I asked her why Cory never called back. She said she couldn't find my transcripts and wanted me to resend everything all over again!!! And she had to hang up because she was busy doing fingerprints for the new students!! I couldn't believe how I was treated!!!!Patricia Moncada

I am in my sophomore at Chamberlain University Addison Campus; I have had tremendous academic support from the campus staff, right from the start of the admission. I appreciate a great deal the academic support I have received from my Student Support Advisor, Crystal Chatman. Her meticulous and compassionate approach can not be overstated, particularly with helping through the campus transfer process. The student-centered support and flexibility provided by the school during this tough period reaffirmed that I made the right decision choosing to enroll at Chamberlain University for my BSN, rather than any other university. And regardless of whatever little dissatisfaction I may have encountered, the overall positive and enriching experience over-compensate, which is why I am giving 5stars. I have made tremendous strides in this journey.Afeez Sholaja

The students at this clinic are thoughtful and thorough — there is a supervisor for students treating you, so you feel taken care of on another level as they have to confirm their treatment plan with someone who has real life experience treating patients. With the price it has made weekly acupuncture possible for me, keeping my stress levels down and helping with body pain / appetite. Couldn't recommend it enough for self care maintenance.Teressa LaGamba

The webinar with Rudy De La Garza was incredibly informative and helpful. I appreciate Pacific College for making this available. Rudy's clear explanation and guidance made this topic accessible and helped me tremendously in updating and maintaining my Google business listing. I cannot speak highly enough about my one-on-one consultation with Rudy. He is very generous and I really enjoyed working with him. Please bring him back for more!Dr. Tyme Gigliotti, DAc, LAc

PCOM is a wonderful college, which is caring for students and alumni. I recently joined a seminar about marketing and SEO sponsored by PCOM. The seminar run by Mr. Rudy De La Garza was amazing and I had so many great advice on how to optimize google search. PCOM also sponsored 30 minutes free consultation with Rudy and I received personalized advice and techniques. Thank you so much for PCOM and Rudy! I highly recommend both!!Michiko Yoshifuji

I am very impressed by and appreciative of Gina Aalders. I began my enrollment into the Radiography program fairly late and feared I would be unable to finish the process in time for classes. From the very first moment I met Ms. Aalders, she has continued to go above and beyond her duties and exceed my expectations. What impressed me the most was her level of communication and willingness to assist me however she could. She was proactive in letting me know approaching deadlines and extremely supportive throughout the entire process. After coming from a college where all of these things are seriously lacking, Ms. Aalders was EXACTLY the person I needed and I could not be more appreciative of how helpful she has been. Thank you very much!Kieran Richards

My daughter has recently enrolled in classes at Northwestern College, and the transition was extremely easy, thanks to her amazing and wonderful advisor, Tanisha Williams. We can't thank her enough for all her help and guidance. She answered every call, every email, every question, and so much more. She goes above and beyond! We have been so blessed to have her as our advisor, and truly, we can't thank her enough. Tanisha Williams #1juan soto

I’m so glad that I found this collage. Gina helped me get all my information together in order for me to start. Also Gina got everything done in a timely manner. My new friend Major is awesome and motivational. Griselda is really nice also and is very helpful. I am looking foward to become a future nurse! 🙂Alyssa Whittington

Where do I start? When I initially started I was EXTREMELY nervous simply because it’s been awhile since I’ve actually been back in school. Five years ago, when I obtained my LPN I gave myself a year to get back in school to obtain my RN but unfortunately LIFE happened. Over the years, I’ve actually loss two people whom were very important to my growth process and loss sense of hope. If that even makes sense at all to you. Pretty much I just lived life day by day ok with being mediocre because I felt as if my biggest support was no longer here. A year ago I was reminded why I even decided to become a Nurse when I actually was placed in a situation to work with nurses who obviously lacked the compassion needed to be an amazing nurse. Immediately I reached out to who is now my advisor Chelsey and she has been nothing but truly AMAZING. Even though I’m still on this journey im confident I have the right people in place to help guide me on this journey. TRUST ME when I say it’s not easy I have both my good and bad days but every day I take a step back and remind myself of my ultimate goal in place is to position myself so I could be a advocate for those who may not be able to advocate for themselves. If you’re considering Rasmussen as the place to further your educational needs don’t hesitate to reach out to one of the advisors and please don’t allow any negative influences hinder you from moving forward with your growth process. I guarantee you won’t regret it.Laura King

My dad always told me "nothing good comes easy". And boy, was he right- especially when it came to nursing school. Throughout my program, there had been multiple last minute changes and decision that in my opinion, greatly affected my experience. However, just as a nurse rolls with the punches, I too rolled with the punches as a student. Rasmussen reinforced what I had already learned from my current employer: as a nurse, I will deliver the best possible care while remaining empathetic and compassionate. I will maintain the dignity of the patient, and I will whole-heartedly deliver and utilize a combination of competent care, therapeutic communication, and exceptional teamwork and collaboration. I will provide evidence-based knowledge, integrity, autonomy, altruism, and social justice while providing quality, holistic care that is based on the individualized needs of the patient and their family. I will respect, support, and advocate for my patients; and I will meticulously dedicate myself to improving their health awareness and literacy. I will strive to be knowledgeable and tenderhearted as I work to make a difference in my patients’ lives through providing holistic care.Nic LaMore

Rasmussen was one of the best decisions I could have made. Making the decision to go back to school , at the age of 43, was not the easiest for me. However with the help of my advisors, the staff in general, instructors and even in some instances my classmates made it all worth it. I have completed one program and have continued to further my education, my Rasmussen team has helped me to realize that I can do anything I put my mind to and it is never too late. I am grateful for each person that has been instrumental in helping me progress in my educational career and I look forward moving into to my next level of my career. If you are looking for a place to get started, whether fresh out of high school or looking to create a new version of yourself. Check out Rasmussen , they wont disappoint!Lakeisha Vance

Great campus, career programs at this location include Sterile Processing, Medical Assisting, and Dental Assisting. Plenty of career support with clinical locations, and career services to assist students. Admissions and financial aid teams are very friendly and helpful.George Jurek Polanski

This school has horrible management. They will tell you to leave if you dont like how they operate. That alone is very unprofessional! It's a disgusting negative atmosphere soon as you voice you problems. I would suggest the chicago campus if you like what they offer.Mrs Tucker

Got a chance to check out the new campus and I must say, I'm really impressed with the space and new labs, particularly the dental assisting lab and sterile processing lab. It's great to see MCC evolving the student experience for students!T Gillett

I had been researching various Nursing programs before committing to Rasmussen University's Nursing School. However, my choice to proceed with Rasmussen was simple and called out to me in a variety of ways. As a potential student of any academic institution, you want the opportunity to be made to feel that your success is supported in every way and that you are valued as a student. Rasmussen checked all the vital boxes that I was looking for in an academic institution headed toward my next nursing journey in obtaining my ADN degree. Unlike other schools I encountered, Rasmussen was very attentive and accommodating toward me. I was virtually guided through every step of admissions and continue to feel supported as classes are actively taking place. I love the customer service, the follow up and continued support that I feel being an active student. I know I made the right choice to attend Rasmussen University Nursing program and would highly recommend the school to anyone looking to attend.gabrielle Mendez

I felt confident about choosing Rasmussen to complete my nursing education before I even started my program! My counselor was very thorough and the information session was packed with so many details that made it easy to get started. I was very nervous in my first week, but the student portal was so easy to navigate and I always got quick responses from my instructors. One thing I’ve noticed is that the instructors are dedicated to making sure their students succeed, and that’s what really eased my anxieties as a new student at this school. I’ve attended schools where teachers don’t appear to care much if you pass or fail, but my instructors at Rasmussen get us truly prepared for exams and assignments, which I really appreciated. I have zero regrets about choosing this university for my nursing degree, and I urge anyone considering their options to keep Rasmussen at the top of their list!Quiana Austell

Rasmussen University is the best college I have come across. From the moment I got connected with them everyone was so helpful. Any time I had questions or needed help someone was always there to guide me until everything I needed was completed. This college allows you to go at your own pace, which is how I finished my associates degree within just 18 months!! Getting my degree as soon as possible was so important so that I can start my career… and with Rasmussen they made it happen. Two people that I want to thank so much is Tonika Chism and Lyn Lumpkin; these two ladies went above and beyond from the time I started and they never stopped. This fall I will be starting my bachelors degree and I cannot wait! I highly recommend this college to anyone. Thank you again Rasmussen University!Sierra Brady

Start Career college has been a blessing to me. I came to this school some years ago for my cna while I was pregnant. The school and my instructors supported me endlessly. I got my license a week after I had my baby. I was so proud of myself and the support from the school made it possible. When I heard they were starting LPN program, I was excited and enrolled immediately . The journey was tough but my instructor and the school encouraged me and supported me. Am proud to say I graduated and am licensed. Am so grateful to the owner, the administrator and my instructor .God bless you allRonny Mogaji

Attending SCC for their Medical Assistant Program was the BEST! I was taught by knowledgeable and professional Instructors. Dr. Keller really prepared me for what was to come. Mrs.T really cares about the students, she was and is always ready to help in any way she can. My experience with the SCC Family was a Blessing, I would recommend anyone to attend so you too can see for yourself the level of care you will receive. You wont be disappointed!Shayla Howze

State Career College is a great tight knit school to recieve training and education! Shortly after I graduated from the chairside assistant program, I gained employment as a dental assistant which further resulted into occupation at a government facility! I highly refer anyone seeking timely and efficient training for a career in the dental or medical field to enroll at State Career College!J. Yisrael

Great experience! I definitely recommend this school. A special thank you to Ms. Lola for going above and beyond and being an amazing teacher with empathy, knowledge and compassion. I truly enjoyed my learning experience at ÁNMUT. I have nothing bad to say regarding my experience, I had great instructor and great peers. 10/10 Thank you ÁNMUT NURSING SCHOOL! 💚Betty Vinkler

I love, love, love everything about this school. The teacher (Lola) was amazing. She covered every important thing that we needed to know. Anything u had a question about she had no problem answering it. I learned about but I know I still earning as I go. It’s a continuous process. I thank Lola for everything and being so caring for each and every one of us.Sherissa Lamb

I really enjoyed this Anmut nursing school.My instructor Mrs Lola was very informative and fun. She taught us everything we needed to know to be prepared for the state test. I just took my test and passed on my first attempt. So let’s just say Anmut nursing school and Ms Lola are the bomb!! I highly recommend this school.christina perez

I found out about this program from their website and I was interested. I called them several times to ask about the program and info session and what I would need to bring to the session. I was told to come to the Thorek building in room 203 and bring forms of identification. I attended the info session yesterday and it was until the end where the head of the program asks me if this is my first time coming here. I said yes and he said I’m in the wrong place and I jumped ahead. I guess I was supposed to attend something else before the info session on Friday? I made an account and showed them my identification and was there for 2+ hours. He said he’ll get back to me but was taking forever. I decided to leave because it wasn’t worth it. How was I supposed to know that I had to attend something before the info session on Friday? No where on their website does it say that. No one on the phone told me that. If you’re looking for an organized and professional program, this isn’t it. Their website should be more clear and explicitly say what they’re trying to say.Esha Patel

This program is great if you really want to get the certifications unfortunately these people don’t want to help you . A façade at its best . I’ve been emailing these people for the longest . The most unprofessional people I’ve ever met . Once they have your funding they don’t care about you and they try their best to give you a hard time and the moment you tell them how to do their job and what they should be doing they treat you as if you’re a threat . It’s always something . Literally. I’ve past all my classes with A’s ,been to every class ,been very respectful when I’ve been dismissed multiple times when all I’ve asked for documentation that I shouldn’t even have to ask about . Nobody answers emails and whenever I call I’m either getting hung up on or on hold. I’ve spent over 9 months in this program when it says only 5-8.Qameika Thomas

I love this school so much they’ve helped me changed my life in so many ways. Despite the COVID circumstances and having to adjust to the digits learning, my instructors gave very efficient information about every subject. The program also isn’t lengthy and the days you have class are reasonable. The test and quizzes really help prepare you for the mid-term and final. I have yet to take the state-test but I know with the help from my instructors I will pass that as well. If I could do it again I would. Highly recommend and the best part about everything was that a voucher payed my way I paid NOTHING and got absolutely everything I needed to help me succeed in the medical field.Amorest King

I came here about 2 years ago for the CNA program and after I got my certificate, I went to work in the medical field for a year and a half. It essentially motivated me even more, to want to get into an RN program, which is initially why i came to nirvana. I started my RN program just this week at a another college. what does my college have to do with Nirvana? well although the program is an RN course, the first semester at my college is CNA courses. I can say with confidence that they DO NOT beat the classes at Nirvana. If you want to be a quality CNA go to Nirvana, they will work their butts off to make sure you understand EVERYTHING you need to know, in order to become a CNA. Thank you Nirvana and Ms. Marie, wish me luck on my Registered Nurse journey!S_95

I Just Wanna Say I Had a Great Experience At The South Side Location At the Nirvana Institute, I Reccomand This Accelerated Class & Location if your Truly Compassionate & Dedicated towards Healthcare Especially When it Comes too Becoming a CNA My Teacher Ms. Marie Was Absolutely Amazing She Made Sure I Understood Everything & Studying is The Key you Must Put your Mind Too it NoMatter What Always Stay Focused & Don’t Get Discouraged You Will Succeed Nirvana’s Southside Campus is The Best & So is Ms. Marie I had a Great Experience & You Will too !Naomi Givenchy

I was scared taking an accelerated course while working full time but I’ll be the one to confirm between Mrs. V and Mrs. Marie teaching methods its impossible to fail! They make everything comfortable and so understanding. I found my passion, and will be furthering my education. You leave with so much knowledge and inspiration. These nurses are the truth. I highly recommend the Nirvana Institute south campusAngel Tyler

I loved doing the program here. The instructors I had for lab and clinical were Ava and Mark and they both did a great job with preparing me with being a CNA; They both gave helpful tips for the state exam, my choice of career, and general life advice. Something I would’ve liked more is more overview of the requirements in regards to shots/titre tests etc on the actual website so students can get it done before they even submit their applications and get in so they can have that true head start. Nonetheless, I would recommend getting your program requirements completed here.Saja Bushara

My experience while learning at ICI was beyond great. I learned so much and gain much needed experience to obtain my CNA certification. Ms. Shelia is very professional, patient and very informative when it came to admissions, lab reminders and clinical reminders. My instructors were also great. They allowed me much needed hands on training as well as practice test/quizzes. Great great school if you’re looking to gain more experience, knowledge, and skills to help you in healthcare.Erika Williams

I really enjoyed my experience at ICI. I felt that I truly was challenged in ways that gave me great insight into the nursing world and that I can carry with me throughout nursing school. The staff are experienced and knowledgeable in their fields and elaborate on questions to give you well-rounded answers to your questions. It’s a program you have to want to do well in in order to do well. If you put in your part, you will succeed.Giovanna Rossi

Rick is very unprofessional. He spoke to an employer and spoke negatively about me after years of not dealing with this school. I personally dropped out because I felt I was being attacked about eating breakfast in class as I’ve did through the 4 completed courses with the one over worked teacher that teaches everything . I attended multiple events and have multiple signatures from RICK that attest to me being professional and efficient so why he felt the need to speak bad of me I am unsure maybe because I reported them but I will be reporting him again and now I’m publicly letting it be known. You intimidate people to not come after you have received money for their classes. You are a very sad old man for trying to stop something great for somebody. Please be advise that all events all majority polish people and they don’t really care for the African American students. You tried to sabotage my character when I did nothing but be a great student. DO NOT ATTEND THIS SCHOOL !!! ITS MUCH BETTER SCHOOLS FOR WHAT THEY COST WITH MORE EQUIPMENTChela Woods

I highly recommend TTI for anyone considering a career in the healthcare field. I received my certification in both EKG and phlebotomy and I would definitely consider taking more classes there. They offer a variety of classes and have 2 locations , both on the north and south side for labs. The evening classes fit into my busy schedule and the instructors are all healthcare professionals who really break down the lessons for you and help you prepare for your NHA exams. They also notify you about many volunteering events which allows you to get more hands on practice and enhance your skills which would look great on your resume and that would help you land a great job. Everyone in the office was great Including Rick, Sophie, Adrian and Eduardo. They were all very helpful and walked me through the whole registration process and gave me great advice and were always available to assist me with any questions I had. I know I made a great decision choosing TTI and you will too.Islam Owaynat

The great thing about this school is that even after you graduate/finish the course, if ever you want to refresh, you can always come back and sit in the class again at no charge. They prepare you to pass the exams, and for some courses you do get to do clinicals, also they participate in health screenings too so students can get some practice in. If you need more hands on, they are willing to stay and teach you until you are comfortable. There really is no language barrier, just heavy accents at times, if you don't understand something just speak up, but the materials they cover in the books are what is on the exams. If you need more help, you just need to ask. This is a very good program. The staff is great. The teachers are actually doctors and nurses that have chosen to teach. It's a great school.Connie Pagan Ramos

I had to decide on a Nursing school to enroll in illinois and I don't regret choosing North Shore College. It was worth driving all the way from Indiana to wheeling Illinois to take exams,clinicals etc I would like to say a big thank you to Dr.Zafar,the instructors,administrators etc. They make a wonderful team,yes the best school has the best team and work together to help it student succeed. My last days in North shore was tough as I got overwhelmed with many personal stuffs but I was able to graduate and pass Nclex on first try because I ended up getting a second mum Ms.Neelam who kept encouraging me not to give up on my dream to become a Nurse. While taking the board exams I started having memories of the things we were thought in class by Ms.Mardi,Dr.Hiren,Ms.Neelam,Ms.marquitta,Ms.Emelia. The school has great experience instructors who teach with good examples making it hard for you to forget as well as encourage it student to push through. I will encourage anyone looking to enroll in a nursing school in Illinois to go to North Shore college. Ms.Neelam thank you so much for your encouragement during my last days and Thank you also Dr Zafar .Thank you North Shore staff .God Bless you AllMarthe Azane_Boah

I graduated in 2021 and passed NCLEX a few weeks after graduation. North Shore College has some of the best instructors, The teachers were amazing, especially Mrs. Neelam — she will go above and beyond to make sure you have a good grasp of the content that she is teaching. To all the current students at North Shore, make sure that you pay attention to clinicals especially when doing paper works, because that is a big part of what you're going to do apart from the nursing skills. For ATI, try to do all the adaptive questions — once you're done with the adaptive, do it all over again. Repetition is key. If you ace ATI, NCLEX will be cake. Lastly I want to thank the NSC staff, Ms. July, Ms. Mardi, Ms. Marquitta, Mrs. Brenda Kozak, Ms. Franco, Ms. Ilona and Dr. Zafar (Yes he is strict, but think of it as practice when you're talking to some of the providers when you start working Lol.)iambryan

I have enjoyed my experience at North shore college in Wheeling thus far! The professors and staff are all extremely knowledgeable, kind, and caring. They are all there to help and support you during your academic journey. Students are amazing, unique and great people. I did my program very fast over this pandemic and passed my NCLEX using a first trial. I strongly recommend everyone to join North Shore College of Healthcare in Wheeling..Karekoona Musa

NCLEX-PASSED! I want to thank the Professional Career Certification and Training Institute (Verve College) for seeing more than a test score and providing me with the opportunity to achieve my goal in becoming a Licensed Practical Nurse. Some schools will turn you away if your score is less than a 70% on the TEAS test but Verve College took the time to look at the whole student and take a chance on a person’s determination to succeed. They provided and fully implemented the tools for learning the material at hand. They go the extra mile to ensure you have every opportunity to make it. Nursing school is grueling, nail biting and hair pulling; I don’t care where you go. It’s a commitment. “You will have to adjust and pass on some things. You gotta do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do. Your focus is your reality” (Instructor). Verve College provides a very flexible schedule with allows you to attend day, evening, and even weekend classes. I want to give honor and praise to my Heavenly Father through his Son Jesus Christ for providing me with the strength to keep going when I felt like giving up. I want to thank my teachers for their positivity and encouragement every step of the way. “Team work makes the dream work” (Instructor). There were times that I was so tired, and I remembered my instructor drilling into our heads to eat small frequent meals to keep up our energy levels. It’s on the NCLEX. I want to thank the administration for keeping our records on track, staying up on everything and always being available to assist, even providing a listening ear and moral support without hesitation; that meant the world to me.Penelope Alexis

Verve College has provided adequate resources for me to finish the Practical Nurse program. In as much as they have excellent instructors, they too have some of those who neither have the passion nor the desire to teach. Fortunately, the school listens and obviously terminated some of them. There are members of the staff who perform more than is expected. They are the backbone of the school. Overall, just like any institution, there are things that need improvement. Yet for those good things that Verve College did, they did them quite well. Thank you very much!rachel james

Absolutely disgusting blatantly 'fake' reviews on Google. Look up the Verve College testimonial page on their official website and you will see the Google reviews posted word-for-word by the students. You can literally copy and paste them and see that they changed the names for the Google reviews (and RESPONDED to those reviews). Looks like Verve College is taking the student testimonials and making them into 5-star reviews on Google. Horrible and unethical.Sam Smith
