20 Best Lpn To Rn Programs In Charlotte, NC (2022 Updated)

I left a BSN program to attend CCHS and it was the best decision I ever made for my nursing career! Compared to the university I previously attended, CCHS classes are small and intimate, we had easy access to our teachers and advisors and we had a TON of hands-on clinical experience. I felt very prepared for the NCLEX as well as my first nursing job after I graduated. I then was able to work as an RN while taking classes online for my BSN after I graduated. I highly recommend CCHS to anyone interested in a career in healthcare and am proud to be a CCHS alummi!Kelly Carlisle

Two days ago, I received an acceptance letter into CCHS’s Neurodiagnostic Technology program! The application process was made easy due to great communication, kindness and patience from Robert, the Coordinator of Admissions. Mrs. Ashley Hastings, the Program Chair, answered all of my questions in detail, making me more eager to join the program. I am looking forward to gaining knowledge from her. All of the staff I have come across so far at CCHS has been welcoming and kind. I highly recommend applying to Carolinas College of Health Sciences.Ahyanna

I've attended CCHS for almost 2 years now. I like how the staff has worked diligently with student during COVID-19. While everyone is still going through difficult times, they have been able to adapt to regulations and restrictions of healthcare that have been placed during the pandemic. I truly enjoy attending CCHS and I know that once I graduate from the nursing program, I will have all the tools, training, and guidance needed to provide excellent care to all patients.Stephanie Lemons

Let's be honest, there are good things and bad things to this school. While the department the major I have is very small and thus more personal with you, especially with advising, the bigger departments like business are very impersonal with you, and hold rather strict barrings on until you complete the, to be honest, useless general education the college forces on you, though that is the case anywhere in America. It is almost arrogant in how they dismiss the ideas and opinions of the students in favor of their own. They are also known for their excessive penny pinching. With the prices on campus being outrageous, they also hold strict rulings for housing and parking, giving you hefty bills if you mess up on even the slightest infraction. Overall, the grand and upcoming productions they are doing with the school, such as the football field and new dorms and buildings, do not help the general student population much. Now, with this said, there are good things to this place. For one, in smaller departments, you get a generally more personal and kinder attention to you and your college career. With my department at least, as long as you show the ability, they help you get the classes you want and need. Also, at least on campus, school spirit runs deep with the green and gold. There are more than enough events to bolster this said school patriotism, and can eventually come to rival other schools. Also, while some professors have a tendency to stuff beliefs down the student's throats, others can be thought inspiring, and can be interesting and even fun to go to classes sometimes. However, the lousy administration still lingers over these benefits, and hampers the overall quality of the school. If they fixed that problem, they would be a good school. However, with that said problem, I can only recommend it, as a current student, as a mediocre to slightly above average at best school to prospective students. To them, I would look at your options and see if you want to come here. I do not regret the choice of coming to this school, but I cannot ignore its blatant and crippling flaws.Drunk Farmer

If you have a lot of money, or you're a research student or engineer, you probably won't have a problem with this school. The school looks very nice on the outside, but as a student, I hated it. The dorms were god awful. Their elevators did not work on the first day of move in. At one point they did not have enough rooms in the highrises for the students, and had to house students in the commons rooms and blackout the windows. The Cafeteria food was always questionable. Cold and pretty unimaginative. Facilities and services always closed down early. There was hardly anything open on the weekends. Not to mention there is barely any means of going anywhere outside of campus if you don't have a car. Speaking of cars, parking services is ridiculous and incompetent. They wrote me up even when I had my parking tag right on the windshield, positioned properly where it was supposed to be, and another time I got a ticket after the semester had ended! This school just looks for ways to nickel and dime students. They're department chairs and coordinators are a bunch of fools who can't manage their jobs. And when they make mistakes, you are the one who will probably end up paying for it.Eric Williams

I went to UNCC back in the mid to late 90s. All I can say is if I had a time machine, I'd love to go back. I met several life-long friends that I continue to hang out with to this day. It's amazing how much the campus has changed over the years. The last time I was there (for the first football game) I almost got lost. I received a fine arts degree and have made a career out of digital printing and design. According to other reviews, people still like to go home on the weekends. That was also the case when I attended, but for the brave that stay around the school during the weekend, more power to you. That's where the fun is really at. Also, I'm hearing that students aren't attending the football games and the ones that are, tend to leave early. All I have to say to that is, just be glad you have a football team. We were so sports deprived back in the day, we would go to all the basketball and baseball games. Good times!Chad Milburn

*This review is in regards to their summer intern housing program* Queens must be the most incompetent organization I have ever dealt with. Of a group of five friends, they managed to "mistransfer" two of our contact information into their database – they messed up 40% of our applications! (Oh, and they they "misassigned" a third to the wrong room). While I wasn't too upset to learn that I lost my spot, even contacting them about my refund proved difficult since they don't answer their phone during business hours. If you're going to apply for summer intern housing at Queens, make sure to put in a few applications elsewhere.Alex Hoffman

The nursing program is bad. Less than half of the students that start at Queens for nursing end up graduating. Most people fail out of the program. You need at least a 77 to pass your classes and they will not help you if you’re 0.1 away from passing. If you fail a class, you can only retake it once and you will be delayed a semester because you can only take that one class. If you fail two classes, you’re out. It’s a very expensive school and not worth your time. They have a HESI exam that counts 10% of your grade and it’s really hard and you can’t study for it. They don’t prepare you for it either.Kirsten “Meghan” Lim

MSN-CNL online degree program was an extraordinary graduate nursing program. The professors were top rate, requiring excellence at all times and were superb at instructing through an online platform supported by faculty specifically assigned to assist the full time working professional. I highly recommend this program and welcome any questions you may have when considering Queens for your advanced nursing degree. Email my name at google.Darci Kelso

Hello all, my name is Kyle Wesselman. I am a recent graduate of Kings College and for those who are reading this you may have questions about Kings College and I am here to share my experience at Kings with you. I entered the medical assistant program in the fall of 2013 and probably like many of you, I was ready and eager to start a great career. I knew what I wanted to do and had the drive to get there, I just needed the opportunity. Kings College provided that opportunity ten fold. Kings has an amazing faculty and staff. Their instructors have years of experience in the field's they teach and are with you ever step of the way. Something I can certainly tell you while are attending Kings is you are getting a top notch education. Also Kings College has an amazing staff. Their educational recruiters are great, the educational department is outstanding and the student financial department is unbelievably when helping you through anything you need. Lastly but far from least is Kings College's job placement department. They work with you closely to help find and place you in the right and exact job you want once you graduate. Their effort and care is amazing, all of Kings personnel goes above and beyond for their students that I can say is a fact. So if you have any questions about Kings College hopefully I have answered them for you and choose Kings College. You will get to where you want to be.Kyle Wesselman

I graduated from King's in December 2016, with a diploma in Medical Assisting. The placement department sent me on multiple interviews, and I was offered a job with a large hospital in Charlotte within two weeks of graduation. King's is more expensive than a community college and it is true that credits do NOT transfer, but this is a fast track program. I was looking for a school that would prepare me for employment in a short period of time, and the cost was well worth it for me. After 8 months of classroom training, I was well prepared for my 8 week externship. The curriculum taught is exactly what is needed to be prepared to work in a medical office. The instructors are very knowledgeable in the subjects that they teach. They are all required to have at least a Masters Degree. King's College is well known in the medical community for putting out the most well prepared and knowledgeable MAs. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a fast track program with a reputable school.Classie Norfleet

The placement department at King's College is awesome. They are people who I believe from my experience genuinely care about the students. They go above and beyond and are also very empathetic people that strive to understand and help where they can. You can always tell who really enjoys their job! King's college as a whole is a great school and has great benefits. The placement department will assist you for the rest of your life in finding a job. King's College is the first school of business to be established in North Carolina and it truly is a school of business! If you are looking for a school to get you directly into the work force and give you the necessary education, King's is a great choice. It is a very professional environment. The programs they offer are fast paced and to the point. The instructors are very strict because they are preparing you for the work force. Be very flexible, and open to learn if you decide to come to King's. I enjoyed my time here and learned so much.Mr. Parson

This college has made a terrible impression. They got me admitted as a transfer student, and I have been preparing for the Fall session online, but to appear in person, and I just found out I missed the registration deadlines because student advising never got back to me. I took the new student orientation and the professor, just skimmed through all the info. There wasn't time for questions, and she cut it short by 30 minutes. It didn't even explain how to register online. I had been in communication and prepared for this session but didn't understand how to register so all the classes I had 'added to my schedule' weren't actually registered, and no one followed up with my questions. I thought I was registered, and even as I try to register now after the fact, it still says I need student advising which no one ever got back to be except for an email to say I already had everything set up. I am torn about this. Now I have to wait another session to get started?! NO! I will take my education somewhere where I can actually get assistance. This is such an emotional drag.Gabrielle Flores

This school is great. The staff was even greater. Very family oriented, caring, and provided a great and safe atmosphere. Let us just start with when you enter the building, and there is this warm and kind spirited receptionist( Mrs. Ireene) that greets you. Her daughter our instructor Ms. Grant was also amazing at what she did and was very stylish doing it; which I loved it made it more interesting and not so boring. All though Ms. Grant was very entertaining you can tell she knew her stuff. I loved that she only gave you what you needed and not the extra fluff unless you asked for it. I can guarantee you with Ms. Grant as your instructor there is no way you can fail unless you just do not come to class. I would recommend any and everyone to take her course especially if you are trying to learn a lot in just a short matter of time. Great School!!!sharipha thurston

Blooming Heart School of Health is a school like no other. When you enter, Ms. Irene greets you with a beautiful smile and welcomes you to the school. Ms. Grant continues this during the classes and makes everyone feel like they belong. Her teaching style is amazing and helped me retain so much information! The fun jokes and talks we had in class were really enjoyable. The skills lab and the teaching method Ms. Grant used to help us remember how to do all the skills was so different and helpful. This was my home away from home and if I could go back and redo my 4 weeks there, I would! I had an amazing experience, met so wonderful people, and learned awesome skills!Medha Muppuri

Ms. Grant is so passionate about creating a future of empathetic and hardworking nurse assistants and it shows. She is very thorough with all of the information needed to pass the CNA exam and skills test. Ms.Grant goes out of her way so that every student gets a full understanding of skills and concepts and uses real life examples to make lessons understandable. Blooming Heart School is organized, affordable, and flexible with day and night classes. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone who is interested in being a nurse aide or medicine aide in North Caroline. Ms. Grant is such a wonderful person and the school is absolutely fabulous.Annie Morgan

I really enjoyed the staff and the faculty at the campus. The night classes came in handy if you work full time during the day or if you have small kids to take care of. Also, with so many online classes it is much easier to handle the work/life balance and responsibilities. I like how clear everything is to understand, how the faculty are subject matter experts and work with people who need extra attention and extra patience as life can be challenging when juggling so much. The people in financial aid and the Dean are really good about answering questions and providing guidance and support. The class structures being one at a time in the semester and the small amount of people in the class help make it easier to have a relationship with the faculty. Don’t get me wrong, if you don’t study and you don’t focus, you will not succeed. But if what you want to do is get right to the point, work hard and get a job, this is the place to go. I know other people who have studied in different places and I honestly feel like when we talk about what classes I had to take and what material I had to study, I really feel like I got a lot more out of the experience than they did with theirs. No regrets.Theresa Martinez

This school needs to learn how to listen to the students sometimes. I can say that with some of the reviews they are right about the money part if I would’ve did more research i probably would’ve went somewhere else because how is it that I signed up for classes and did all the paper work but then when school starts and begin classes that all of sudden the books cost more then you expected. You should have known that before classes started or during the process prices don’t change overnight. The instructor i had no longer works here but she was a very good teacher, she made sure that you understand everything and always tried to relate it to everyday life things to help you remember and only because of her am i glad that i came here because she really made me fall in love with my program. They really lost the best instructor ever!!! Overall i say do your research no school is perfect but they got some snakes at this school and its sad because we suppose to be adults.Erin Braynon

Private school scam! Young adults, please don't fall for this. Sharon Palmer will manipulate you into signing over to pay fifty thousand dollars for a five thousand dollar course. All they care about is money and their credits don't even transfer. I withdrew in Novmeber and they still are triyng to get me to pay loans for classes I never attended. When I called them today, they said they split your fafsa in half (which makes no sense) and use the other half for the next semester wherther you go or not. This way, if the half doesn't cover the semester you're forced to take out a loan. Coretha and Sharon palmer spammed me with emails at one and two in the morning trying to coerce me into signing things and making me feel like it was life or death. Do not trust this school and if you can, go somewhere else.X'zavia Woods

Terrible with finacial aid, your number will always change and they will give with next to nothing. Make sure you take 12 credits (+5 classes) or else youll have $30.51 as your refund like me and have to drop out because you cant afford a book fee. 😡. Unhelpful and after this semester i will be transferring somewhere better.Kami Pate

Taking a Continuing Education online course right now — this Fall '21. The campus is awesome when I want/need to do something in-person, registration and tech team are super helpful. I want to take more classes here and learn a bunch of stuff lol.Theanisa

I LOVE Gaston College. I started at GC last year, the fall semester being my first ever semester of college. (As well as my first ever public school experience – being a former homeschooled kid for 12 years) I had no clue what to expect and quite frankly, I went in thinking that I would fail (I know, that's unhealthy). I was eligible to became a member of TRiO Student Support Services and joined them my first fall semester. They have not only helped me understand how to apply for financial aid and register for classes, but they have also taught me that I can indeed succeed. TRiO at Gaston has supported me from the beginning. I can definitely say I wouldn't be as confident and determined about succeeding had I not went to Gaston. I decided that I wanted to pursue veterinary medicine. After hard work, I made it into the vet tech program this fall and am super excited about it. Ive gone through two semesters and I have been blessed with great teachers so far – only one class did I thoroughly not enjoy and have issues with. The teachers that I had genuinely wanted to see me succeed and did everything they could to help me. I am super hopeful and excited about my next two years at Gaston. I would recommend Gaston to anyone. It's a great place to get started college wise, and it's also a great place to find an associate degree and go straight into the work field. I love their cute little shop and their library is set up awesome. Please – if you're on the fence about going to college in general, a little education is better than none. Gaston will save you tons of money and you'll get an awesome education. Don't hesitate. Just do it.Jordan D. Grant

Gaston College is a truly extraordinary spot to join in. They offer a colossal assortment of classes. They even have some free classes. Those are the ones I joined in. The clinical programming is the best one. The two educators are breathtaking. It is a casual air. They keep us all socially far off. Everything is all around cleaned. The cover strategy is completely authorized. Yet, we live it up and you meet a great deal of new individuals and you get familiar with a phenomenal expertise or can spruce up on an old ability. So truly live it up. I would prescribe this spot to anybody.Amanda Fergusontyer

Really good college. My sister goes there, and they have some good sport teams, but they don't have all of them unfortunately. It would be nice if they did had a football team or something, but I'm glad the athletic department is back in action for Gaston. Can't say it's #1 just because it's a community college, but this is actually a good college. They also have great staff too, plus great facilities. My mom graduated from that school with an associates degree and I can't say how good this is but this is an awesome college to go to, especially for starters. Go Rhinos!Slick Nick

I read all the reviews before posting mines because I believe there is always more to the story than meets the eye. I did come to the conclusion that Advisors need help and my suggestion to CVCC is "Get New Fresh Young People". My experience was much worse than I read. I came in the Admissions office and a lady greeted me. Asked me to wait a couple of minutes while the admissions lady became available. When the she did become available we called out my name from across the room, never greet me, as soon as she saw me walk towards her she never even waited for me and shook my hand, nor welcomed me or anything. I am a professional, business owner and parent with I high ethics for customer service and by far she failed miserably. And this is the first face I see when trying to make a decision of whether or not should I study there. I made a comment in regards to if state credit vs residents and she was stone cold dry and cut. Catawba Valley Community College, you SHOULD NOT have personnel and staff members like this. She never invited me to apply or asked me questions or anything. I made most of the talking. I asked a student that'd been there for some time and that person told me that that's how she felt but "most" of the professors did care. This is not acceptable. I did get one Professor/Staff Member to guide me to the Admissions office but can't really say it made a positive impact. Over all, I wanted to run out of that campus and never return. It really is a bummer because I was really really reeeaallyy looking forward to studying there. If I ever do I hope a lot changes by then. And i also hope that the President and Board of Directors of this CC take the time to read these reviews because now more than ever people are using these reviews to express their voices on what needs fixing. But I cannot tell you how disappointed I am in leaving the campus with such emptiness and disappointment.Edward Nieves

Easy to register for classes after your first semester- you can even do it via the CVCC app on your phone. My first visit for registration for school was really terrible, felt more like they wanted me in & out rather than help. Aside from that they offer A LOT for degrees, certification & continue education! Shoot you can even take classes for hobbies like sewing, candle making, etc. I've even seen young kids here during summer for some art class. All the professors I've had so far are extremely caring, helpful & understanding. There's great amount of options for classes to take at all times of day, even evening/night (and of course online classes) which is super helpful as a full time employee & single mother. Sometimes you have to call & call & leave millions of messages before you get a reply from advising or testing center which can be annoying, I've learned email is usually the better route if available. They do respond eventually, sometimes you just gotta be persistent. They've got A LOT of students so I can understand why it can take a while to respond. Its easy to transfer your credits & placement test scores to other schools as well. I wish that the Alexander CVCC would expand & offer some core classes (like eng, psych,etc). I've enjoyed this school & the opportunities it has given me. ☺LeAnne Charlotte

Most of the courses are good and a lot of the instructors are very helpful and knowledgeable, but AVOID the medical courses if you can. The instructors don't seem to care to much if the students are prepared for a job. The materials and quizzes are almost pointless/useless because when it comes to the official tests that the class is supposed to be training you to pass, most of the material and training you have received is either outdated or not covered or a large portion isn't covered. Essentially you blow a huge amount of time and money into a class trying to get into something that you really enjoy and want to make a career out of, only to fail due to how poorly the class is designed and how poorly the instructors preform. To any considering a medical field, I recommend you go to Caldwell Community College or just about any other college.Chris Frye

I literally have no idea where these bad reviews are coming from. I’ve been at RCCC south campus for 1 1/2 years now, and I’ve had nothing but good experiences. All of my professors have been accreditable, financial aid is always helpful, and replies quickly to emails; and the advisors help with scheduling as well. The advisors are hard to contact via phone, but they are always readily available when you go on campus. I had personal troubles which caused me to lose my financial aid. And the FA advisors helped me get my financial aid back for the following semester in an appeal which took all of 30 minutes. I’ve never had an issue being a minority female on/around, as another reviewer stated. I’ve also never encountered rude or unprofessional staff as another reviewer stated. Maybe they’re talking about North campus in Salisbury. My experience with RCCC has been great thus far. Looking forward to getting my degree soon.Keiko Marcellus

Professors are great… student services… well those suck. If you know how to register your own classes, and look at a program study, and figure out those kind of things on your own you will be fine. I feel like I have gotten my monies worth. I just had to do all that kind of stuff myself, because the littlest question means you have to go to student services and go through the whole "take a number" moron robot drone session. I once needed to simply drop a paper into a professors mailbox and I didn't know where they were and I wait and stand there just to ask something that could have been answered with a finger point! Oh and also, the manager at the bookstore is also incredibly rude and has a power complex. I don't like her at all.James T Kirk

The advisors aren't very good, the navigation station people are pretty rude for the most part, the book store staff is rude. It seems they are trying to get every class to be hybrid which is far from what I prefer. I want 100% class room with paper none of this submitting stuff online, I guess I'm old school when It come to this topic. But it is nice to have a community college so close to home.Brenden Lyman

This school is absolutely AMAZING! Mrs. Sue and Mrs. Zainab are two of the most caring and thoughtful instructors/people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Mrs. Sue, who was my class' instructor for the CNA I class, was extremely dedicated to our class and to making sure that we knew all of the information for the state test and for our careers in medicine. She volunteered to stay later or come in earlier when students needed it and she was always willing to answer any questions or help you in any way. Mrs. Zainab, an instructor and the director of the school, went above and beyond the extra mile to make sure that we passed the state exam and that we had an extremely knowledgeable and pleasant time at her school. She truly cares about her students' success which is obvious in every conversation with her as she was always checking in on and encouraging us. I cannot be more grateful for Unity Nursing Institute, its staff, and all that it has taught me about being a CNA or being in the medical field in general. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants the best experience getting their certifications.Cassie Kotas

Miss Zainab is hands down the most amazing teacher I have ever had. She is passionate about the medical field and helping provide the best care. Because she’s so genuinely passionate about it, she wants to train you to be the absolute best you can be to be a valuable asset to the healthcare community. She explains things and is very hands on. I absolutely loved being a part of her class and i would do it again in a heart beat. She loves her students and does everything she can to make you successful. She’s knowledgeable and I 1000% recommend this school. I did the evening CNA I program and it was the best. I will always carry with me the things I learned and the great experience I had. Great atmosphere and good training. We were ready and prepared to give our best in clinical and our hard work and great education was apparent when staff and residents commended us on our work ethics and knowledge. All because Ms. Zainab goes above and beyond to teach you. I love this school and I love Ms. Zainab. 10/10 recommend!Marisa Robinson

I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT UNITY NURSING INSTITUTE!!! This school sets high standards. I wish every nursing assistant was required to attend Unity Nursing. What an AWESOME teacher!!! She is extremely knowledgeable, very caring, and willing to go above and beyond to help you succeed. The way she teaches makes it not only easy to learn, but exciting as well. She teaches in a way that makes you hunger for more. This teacher makes you value others even more than you already do. She goes the extra mile to make sure you know how important it is to provide care for others, and that you apply the best skills in doing so. Zainab is a truly golden soul whom has a gift and a passion for teaching. You will not be disappointed in choosing this school!R George

My apologies in advance for the long review, but I promise it is worth the read. For starters, I want to be very clear and say that if you are not an individual that is ready to learn and willing to study this program is not for you. Moving from a different state and coming into this program was more than worth it in the end. Mrs. Monica is an exquisite instructor who has a passion for healthcare. She is more than willing to do whatever it is that needs to be done to help her students succeed. Although the Nurse Aide 1 course I took was a little over a month, I have seen the outcomes of having an amazing instructor that will prepare you for your accreditation as well as in real life and an instructor that just tells you what you need to do to pass (a good number of those students who just wanted to pass, did not and had to retake the course). Mrs. Monica is going to make you over-prepared for what you need to know to ensure that you are more than prepared for what's to come. I recently passed both my written and skills exam and in both moments, I can say I was extremely confident and prepared to do what was asked of me. During my experience, I've. had students from different schools asking me questions due to them not feeling as confident. I was proud to know that all of my hard work would pay off before my career even started in those moments. I had the liberty of meeting students from other schools who may have taken this exam more than once already and usually, they are either not taking the time to study and practice (so they're lazy) or they don't feel they were prepared. That was not my story at Serenity Nurse Aide Academy. Mrs. Monica may come off as stern or direct in a lot of situations because she takes her job seriously and she strives for excellence in all that she does but you will also enjoy a lot of fun moments with her and the other students along the way. I guarantee that you will have EVERYTHING you need to excel in this course and in your field because it is given to you and reiterated constantly throughout the course and up to the point of you passing your exams. If you have gotten this far in the review, go ahead and apply. It will definitely be worth it.Rayshawnda Taylor

I came today with a group of people to take my skills exam . Upon entry we were given several papers that needed to be filled out before testing. Monica was my evaluator & seemed pretty nice . I was given 5 skills that I would consider ‘easy’ compared to the extensive CNA class I enrolled myself into a few months ago. I was told by my instructor when taking the skills exam I needed to be obvious with what I was doing, talking myself through each skill- which I did.Monica often walked out of the room or was not on the inside of the pulled curtain when the girl I was working with and myself were doing our skills- often missing steps that we did in fact do. I received my failed test score about an hour ago and the skills Monica claimed I did not do , I know for a fact that I did. A grievance form has been filled out with credentia .Breanna M Anderson

I definitely recommend taking the Nurse Aide I course here at Serenity. The teacher, Ms. Monica is a delight & knows her nursing skills. She will prepare you to pass the state exam as long as you listen to her in class. She will push you but only because she wants everyone to reach their full potential. She will expect you to rise to her expectations. She desires to get to know each person in the class and does everything in her power to make sure the students are successful. I do think the administration could use some work as there were communication issues related to COVID. But overall a very pleasant experience & you will be prepared to ace the State Exam!Caroline Jaworski

American Academy of Healthcare is one of the less expensive choices for CNA programs in Charlotte, and it was absolutely wonderful! I loved the small class size of 12 and the clinical experience at a long-term acute care hospital. Pauline and Leslie were great instructors that always made time to help, and provided many extra resources. It's easy to tell how badly they want you to succeed, and are very excited to hear about your future plans. They allowed us to use the skill rooms as we pleased, even after the last day of classes, to prepare for the state CNA exam, which is something many other schools refuse to do. That extra practice is what allowed me to pass the state exam on the first try, and I am now employed at a hospital for my first CNA job. Definitely worth the time and money!!Stephany H

I took the weekend NURSE AID 1 hybrid class; meaning in person and online that started March 6th. Even with just two days a week, we learned A LOT, not in an overwhelming way but in a way that was comfortable for us to know our skills. Miss Leslee was my instructor and she was great! I understood her teaching style and had no issues! She is determined to help us know what we need to know! Miss Pauline is a gem, she will pop in and out to make sure things are running good and she has a beautiful spa next door! I was able to pass my written and skills exam on the first try, yay! I will say, do not come here to waist anyone’s time, make sure you have all your paperwork in tact, show up, be on time, pay attention, and DO THE WORK… and I can almost guarantee you, you will do GREAT!Ashley N'da

This is the place to go to receive some of the best and detailed training to be the best Nurse assistant you can be. Leslee is well versed in everything not only of which is required to be taught by the state of NC, but also what you need to know for the state test, and information on how testing will go so that students are more comfortable on test day. She not only will prepare you to become a CNA but also gives helpful tips about working in the nursing field, something only a skilled former Nurse could do. Miss Carol also helps out has always answered questions very well and I felt very informed and ready when test day came.Sarah Lash

0 stars! HORRIBLE! Just don't even waste your time. EVERYONE is unorganized and all over the place. You get the run around constantly. Bless your heart if you have a maiden name because you won't be in their system correctly and then you will have to prove who you are! Don't even think about emailing with questions….you won't get a response, at all! You will however sit there all day long and waste your time. If your a transfer student, forget about it! You will be asked to take a placement test, even after being at another school for over a year! They do not advertise or tell you up front that Federal loans are not accepted….you get to go through the entire process and waste a whole day to figure that out! HORRIBLE!!!!Lisa Oxendine

I attended orientation at SPCC with my daughter and I was blown away! What an amazing campus and faculty! This school is focused on student success and safety. The president's introduction and speech was inspiring. I have a master's degree in nursing but my visit at SPCC had me wanting to study something else; just for fun! 😁 I have a feeling that my daughter will be in good hands here. We had an orientation at a local private college in Wingate earlier this month and it was so chaotic and stressful that my daughter withdrew from the school! It was hellishly unbelievable! Everything works out like it is supposed to and now she will get an excellent education at SPCC without the student loan debt and chaos.DC

I haven't started yet, so this is just my experience with communicating with staff. so far its been pretty bad I left a message a few days back, got nothing and it's not the first time luckily I've been to college before so I've managed to stumble through… but for an entering student good luck today is supposed to be my first day and I'm still unsure of some things …email might be the way to go but it would probably help if they had a real directory… I was sure I seen a receptionist when I took my placement exam 🤷‍♂️ side note if they do return your call it seems like they're being inconvenienced somehow I think the lady I spoke with is heather…yeah heather 🤔Wulfisthegang Littles

I enrolled in the Medical Assistant program at ECPI in March 2020 (3 month pregnant). With everything going virtual I really questioned staying enrolled. the school was not easy to work with over a computer. My Financial aid was messed up in the beginning and had to be completely redone and some of the teachers were TERRIBLE with virtual learning. I stuck it out and hoped for the best. As my due date creeped up I started freaking out but Mrs. Mocilan helped make sure everything with school was set for me to welcome my little boy. When we were finally able to come back in person all my classes were with Mrs. Mocilan. I honestly would not have finished this program if it wasn’t for her. She encourages all her students and she see the potential every individual has. She ALWAYS made herself available to her students no matter what she had going on. She went over and beyond to make study material for each certification you can get through the program. Then when you go out on externship she does everything to make sure you are getting the hands on training. I am currently employed at my externship site and she still checks on. I hope ECPI sees how lucky they are to have Mrs. Mocilan as their MA program director.Mikayla McNeill

I’ve been enrolled at ECPI since 2019, since then the staff have been very helpful and reassuring. Tabitha Mocilan and Charles Berry in particular stood out to me as instructors who were dedicated to helping their students get the best education and support when needed. Not only were they always readily available while in person, they made sure to be there for any questions or concerns I had on their time off. Their classes always kept my attention, whether virtual or in person. Our classes were always interactive! Both of them made sure to get to know you as a student and also understand enough about your personal life to help you stay on track in the courses. I’ve learned so many new things during my education journey here at ECPI and I am excited to take these new skills into the medical field. Thank you!Bree Rockingham

I recently graduated from the medical assistant program and I absolutely loved it! Mrs. Mocilan and Mr. Berry were both amazing. They both took the time to help you with whatever you may be struggling with and especially with the pandemic they spent a lot of time with their students! I ended up with 4 certifications and I can honestly say that I was ready for all of them because I was really engaged in class because I was taught everything that I needed to learn for my exams. Class size can very from 5 students to 20. Clinicals were done for our clinical classes and we would also have open labs if you needed help and that helped me a lot! I am very satisfied with the medical assisting program because I ended up getting a job right after graduating. I had an amazing experience.Kathy Luu

A great college for everybody who wants more education, meet people from allover the world. They have a very good security service, great teacher, a wide spectrum of fields to study, central and and also 5 other campuses in the Charlotte-area. If there would be a 4.5 star possibility I would give it. They create confusion during the registration for ELS, HSE and college. The people at the information desk are not really helpful, give wrong or no information, the advisors also give often half information. The two departments of college they offer don't work good together. The transfer after GED/Hiset to the 2-years gollege is not good.Chiffre- Nummer

I like this campus it's wonderful for studing. I finished my ESL classes and now I can speak english, and I can communicate with the people.Dorita Lopez

I had an absolutely wonderful time during my two weeks. All my other classmates were great people. Everyone got along with everyone and got to know each other and practicing skills with them was fun and allowed me to remember the skills better. The lst week is course work and skills and the last week is clinicals which was enjoyable. Since the program is not a fly-by-night cna school it allows for the ability to remember everything because you do it so many times and you spend hours working on skills and learning about them. It also allows for the chance to meet people and make contacts with your peers. The teachers are wonderful and the experience is great. I have recommended the NAIE to four of my friends who have all loved it. 🙂Nicole J
