20 Best Lpn To Rn Programs In San Antonio, TX (2022 Updated)

Am enrolled in the truck driving school at Eagle Pass; it is our final day of class. The staff and instructors at SWTJC — Eagle Pass respond to all concerns with genuine care and attention for helping any student succeed. PRICE: 5 STARS At approx: $3600.00 USD, this price cannot be beat! The national average for CDL school is $5-$6K USD. Not only will you learn to drive standard– not taught at all schools– but, you'll have professors who have 15-20+ years of experience in all aspects of CDL work. Professors are definitely there to collect a paycheck; and, most hold driving jobs elsewhere. All professors show significant interest in helping others on their way to better jobs. CLASSROOM TRAINING: 3 STARS One MUST speak or understand Spanish fluently in order to pass this part of the course. At least 1/2 of the instructors speak Spanish only. If you do not speak Spanish, it is best to speak with Mr. Olivares or Mr. Talamantes, they'll elaborate until the concept(s) is understood. Expect lots of repetitive, memorization-based [classroom] curriculum. DRIVING TRAINING: 3 STARS There was definitely not enough drive time– the fail rate for the CDL exam is stark, and sobering. Double-clutching is not taught on standard 10-speed trucks. Expect to have uneven distribution in driving time per student. Some will drive more than others, and it is easy to fall behind. Expect to argue with your classmates at least once over who gets to drive– not enough trucks, nor space in the yard for 16 students. If one doesn't run to get the keys from the professor– much like a dog chasing after a bone– he will not drive. TRUCKS: 3 STARS Trucks are constantly breaking down. Air conditioners do not work on at least 1/2 of the trucks; expect to sweat in the summer, or freeze in the winter. Trucks are worn out, and filtly– lots of student sweat, oily surfaces, and grime all over the insides, disgusting. Mysterious beeps emanate from the dash, grinding noises are common, leaks are common, and check engine lights are intermittent. Bring hand sanitizer! Bring laundry money– the yard is very dusty. FACILITIES: 5 STARS The campus building is brand new — the janitor works harder than anyone! The truck practice yard is very dusty, muddy when wet; yet: floors are still immaculate. Bathrooms are serviced everyday, and the classrooms are clean and organized. A computer lab would be nice for job applicants post-training. SWTJC has a library– 5 min drive from CDL building– available for guest computer use. Altogether, a pretty good school. Administration is responsive and open to addressing concerns, classroom material(s) are well-prepared, and you'll learn to drive a standard. I'd definitely recommend this school to a friend!Joseph Ruel

Technical classes I do not recommend …teacher wants you to google or YouTube everything or expect for you to know everything….we going to college to learn not to pass the day eating and seeing what recreation bull they got going …seems like instructors are more interested in eating and being googley eyes …when I had question ..never found the instructor around….I would never go back …unless of course I have to finish what I started but if I can transfer ..I will definitely do that…. NO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!Esperanza Esquivel

The eagle pass campus has professors that discourage students. They have professors that show up late or always cancel class, they don't properly lecture and are only there to collect a paycheck. This campus seems more invested in wanting to get paid and not helping students or providing the quality education that the students need.cynthia flores

Service was great, but not happy that my cleaning is taking up 2 half days. Dont understand how we use to go & get a cleaning within a 4 hour period & now it's taking 8 hours to do. Makes it very hard when you live out of town & have to make 2 trips. Still like it because it's free, but ???Linda Meason

My son Graduated from Coastal Bend College today. It was held at the gym. It was crowded, but everyone was nice. It was air conditioned and i felt comfortable. The ladies Bathroom was clean. Everything was organized and ran smoothly. So proud of my son!Monett McHazlett Ermis

well,if u want the lowest grades and just self study and, u can choose here. unorganized school,even u should paid for tutoring, bc they dont hav a budget.they will charge u for every s##t.the health sciences program are the worse in the area with lowest passing rate.the professors are the difficult ppl to deal with. they teach 100pgs in 1hrs ,so u should study on your own,plzzzzz dont wast your time and your money.we are struggling to pass our classes.I know the rad-tech,n-med or radiation -trpy are the worse instructor, heavy material without even tutoring, we have just 2 professors for the program, they dnt know how to teach, dnt have a knowledge even about the material that they are teaching…just plzzz think first before applying for this location.lulu ru

I am so frustrated with this school right now. If I didn't want my desired career courses right now, I would give up. I'm having such a hard time just signing up for classes. First I had a problem with getting registered because of an online school (that I NEVER took classes with) signed me up for student loans (that I didn't approve of), now I THOUGHT it was taken care of! BEFORE going through the process again, I asked financial aid if it was off my credit, they said it was. Once I applied for financial aid AGAIN, applied with the school, AGAIN, and picked out my classes AGAIN, now they are saying "the loans are still there". One hand apparently doesn't know what the other is doing!Shirley Cooper

An amazing community college that cares greatly for their students! The atmosphere is beautiful filling the campus with lush greenery and exotic bird calls. This college provides everything for the student such as a gym, cafeteria, and soon to be college dorms. The financial aid office works tirelessly to get the most for the student. I have been to multiple colleges and universities and Galveston College is by far the best one. I will recommend this college to my closest friends and family!Joshua Bailey

The housing staff is horrible, they have put 2 charges on my account and they admitted to not knowing how they got my name however they refused to take it off even when the camera showed I never stayed, 3 weeks later I spoke to Hr for them to remove it and they did it the same day. The other one was removed 2 weeks later after the payment date. I would also recommend you bring in your own food or check it before leaving the dinning hall. I found so much mold and was served under cooked to many times. The drinks apply as well check the ice whole before u get if there is black stuff around it use the other machines.(not sure if they are gonna clean up before the fall but there is also mold in between the soda machines) Not only the dinning side but be careful with the soda/juice in the deli side the they both are spoiled. And check the expiration date of each snack you do choose to take I had 3 month old jello and I still can’t get that’s fussy taste out my mouth. Either side will not hesitate to sell old milk or old food and bunch it all up to be given out on the weekends. There is a wëëd problem at this school as well so be careful because if anyone in your dorm doesn’t it you maybe be accused of doing it as well by the campus police. Not on to the professors, you need to hold some of their hand and walk them three days the grading process. I had 3 professors(1 was in person and the other 2 was online) last semester wait til the end of the semester to grade everyone from my midterms to out introductions at the beginning. For online teachers make sure you double check their comments after they grade and read up on stuff ahead of time so u can message them early because they don’t respond to message in a timely manner. That is all that I’ve experienced in my first year at Navarro College. I hope they get some stuff fixed and be better for the next first yearsCupcake_skull

Navarro College was STELLAR! As a former Bulldog, I'm proud to have called this school my home. Professors are knowledgeable and interesting individuals, the staff are all charming and helpful, and the atmosphere of the entire facility is one of safety and growth. Plus, Dr. Fagan (the man in charge of it all) is incredibly personable and makes a point of greeting and interacting with students every chance he gets! I would gladly attend Navarro again if I got the chance!Nathaniel Smith

The staff at the Corsicana campus are very rude. Upon inquiring about something the registrar didn’t know about; she went on to yell at me over the counter while the lobby was full of other students. There are only a handful of instructors that are dedicated and willing to see their students succeed. After all we pay to go there and I believe that the students need to treated with a bit of respect. The Cashiers are generally nice and will help you out.Nethmal Perera

This heartfelt review is difficult for me because I actually attended Alvin junior high and Alvin high school off and on throughout my 12 years. I love this town. I was happy to attend this college for that precise reason. However, there were many many obstacles I went through to get my degree here. Frequently, I had to wait my opportunity cost between a poorly taught class, and a class dedicated towards my profession. This should not be happening. Two things caused this. Professors who do not calculate the time required to perform homework and assignments out of class Is one. The second cause were professors who should not be teaching at all. They are either rude, careless Or have some type of issue within their person. Every semester I had a professor like this even after referencing rate my professor. Eventually because of this college hiring so many professors with personal issues it eventually cost me my accumulative science and math GPA to fall under. Consequently, I would not qualify to enter into university science or math department. Every semester on student loans, I worked 10 hours a day for seven days a week for two years. There should have been no reason why my grades were affected. However, how a professor teaches is one of those things that an individual has absolutely no control over. Because of the poor department management and analysis of teaching from professors by administrative, I will no longer be able to pursue the group degree I intended on pursuing. As a compromise, I had to apply for graduation for a general studies associates to leave this college peacefully, and it not destroy my loan approval or potential to graduate in four years. Best degree plans for this college are governments, English, etc. Stay at another community college for science and math because these departments are seriously on organized and not monitored.Shauna Herrera

Keep Alvin Beautiful greeted at the Alvin City Fall cleanup. Texas Pride and others showed up 2 collect all kinds of trash and recycle. Really impressed with everybody that I got to work with as they had a great attitude and even though most were new to the event they jumped in and made things work well. Really proud of everybody who participated and made this a great event and keeping our city sparkling Update: the EMS and police cadet departments pulled together to do a huge exercise for the training of their students. Using the building abandoned building across the street they staged a mass shooter that the police cadets had to take out and then they pulled in the EMS students to help pick up and treat all the wounded. Was a terrific activity and professionally done. Very fun to participate in as a victim. Update: we had the spring Alvin clean up and had the best participation ever. 151 people brought all kinds of trash, metal recycle, electronics, batteries, paper shredding, and green waste to be recycled. Had a super day. Thanks to Hugh and the others at Texas Pride for another terrific jobAdam Burkey

Great place to take classes. My son takes classes here in the summer to transfer to his 4 year university. He has enjoyed all of his professors. I like the school because they have a great enrollment process. They've got a waiting area and they call you up by name and clearly post your name on monitors. I only give 4 stars because of their police department. If you pull through a parking space-ticket. They watch every vehicle and the slightest parking lot infraction can bring a quick ticket. They're using it as a money generator. You've got to read their police handout. A lot of rules are in place that aren't posted and a visitor can quickly find themselves ticketed. We've switched to College of the Mainland and we've been happier.David Carlisle

Just attended a concert in the music hall at the Stillwell humanities building on the Texarkana College campus. The concert was given by a soprano named Shaina Martinez and a pianist named Mary Scott Smith. The style was classical, operatic, and the show included songs by Puccini, Debussy, Andre Previn, Ricky Ian Gordon, and others. The performance was outstanding, and the concert lasted about an hour. There was a printed program provided by the college, and it listed every song and composer, except the encore. There were about 75-80 people attending the concert, and about 30 of those were college students.scott campisi

The person working the front desk of the financial aid office is extremely rude and condescending. She also made it very well known how she felt about the military and GI Bill students. If you have the misfortune of having to endure that lady (you will know her when you see her. She reminds me of kermit's girlfriend) then just know the professors make up for her unprofessionalism.BioMajor33353 B

It's been a pretty good experience so far. They seem to have a lot of compassion for their students. Especially those who have learning disabilities like me (ADHD). They do a great deal for you. Only problem is the coffee bar and the Chik Fil A are not operating. Other than that it's all smilesJoel “JoJo” Albert

I actually attend the other campus, but have had to stop by here for books or to see the proff. So far it seems like a very organized campus. I've come at different times of the day and there's always parking (sometimes further away, but I carry an umbrella for the sun) Once there were mariachi playing outside. The employees are always very helpful & professional and most of the students appear to be engaged in their environment. The bathrooms have always been clean when I've gone. I've taken 3 courses so far and the classes have been very engaging. This is a career change for me so I'm older, but I don't feel out of place.Gracie G

🚩🚩FEB 2022🚩🚩 Mexican guy try to robbed Me. STORY TIME I was at the Activity Center/Game Room. I was painting some pots. I went to go get my plate.

Details: The guy was full beard and short hair a little tall 5'9 with his gf blond girl. I think she was helping him. They were only talking in SpanishKeanu

I was excited about going back to school it’s been 8 years and then I get bounced back and forth from one department to another and finally they tell me you have to get in contact with the Counseling department so I did I called and sent out an email on November 4 and haven’t gotten a response 🤔 maybe they are understaffed, okay but I’ve called 5 times today November 11 and no one answered I don’t get it 🤦🏽‍♂️ I honestly I don’t. How sadHugo De Hoyos

I went to this school in 2007 for an Associate's of Applied Science in Business Office Administration. I completed the program and obtained my degree. Five years later I am still without a job that pertains to my degree. Any employer I go to does not even bother to ask about the degree or seem to care that I have one. It's like having two high school diplomas when you only needed one in the first place. I used Hallmark's career placement services twice and they stopped trying to help me within one month of attempting to utilize their services and were not successful in job placement, which is supposed to be their own job! I have been working customer service jobs with no opportunity for advancement that pay just above minimum wage ever since thanks to Hallmark. I have been using the Texas Workforce to find me the right job with the right pay and am currently receiving unemployment. I am also in the process of trying to get my student loans forgiven, as they have only put me in debt instead of led me down the path towards a happy career. Do not attend this school, it is like high school all over again! Go to one of the Alamo Colleges instead, your money is better invested there! If I would've known I was paying 18k for a useless piece of paper that got me nowhere, I would've told these scammers to shove it a long time ago! Seriously, Alamo Colleges is the way to go! For a better future, go to a REAL college!Amy Love

Hallmark College has give me the tools and necessary knowledge to go and get a job. I graduated back in 1999. As I continue gaining experience and qualifications throughout the years in my aviation career, I keep learning more and moving up the technician ladder. There is no limits in how much you can earn with an AAS in Aviation. I have worked overseas for the past 10 years making a comfortable living . I can pretty much select the company I want to work for or the Country that will be my next home. Seen my work success with just an Associate's degree I decided to finish my Bachelor's with Hallmark and I did! (06/15 ) I did not take any breaks after my graduation I just started my Masters with Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. Hallmark helped me to reach my goals. You must persevere and focus on what works for you. Do not let others discourage you because they were unsuccessful. You will get an opportunity within time, just make sure you posses the tools and necessary accreditation's (Degree) to do the job. Just be serious about your future and school, do your homework and study. Work on your resume and interview. This is my story and I hope to bring some light to all these hating comments. You be the judge….Jess Jara

Hallmark University College of Aeronautics is a great place to gain knowledge in becoming a Aviation Maintenance Technician. I am currently in my 2nd term here and I could not be more pleased with the professionalism of the university. All of the instructors are incredibly helpful and have years of experience in aviation. The overall curriculum is very fast paced in order for us to get our degree and A&P license quicker, so you must be very dedicated and focused on keeping up in class or you could be quickly left behind. The school has different companies in the aviation field come regularly to recruit students to come work for their company all over the country which gives us many great options once we graduate. Overall, I would recommend this school over any other to anyone who wants to build a career in Aviation Maintenance. I personally moved here to San Antonio from Salt Lake City, UT just to get my education at Hallmark because of the widely known prestige of the school. Gaining your Associates Degree and your A&P license from Hallmark will definitely set you up for a very successful future!William Skelton

The College of health care professions has been nothing but good experiences for me. From the moment you walk in everyone is so welcoming and sweet, to admissions team helping you understand every step of the way and helping you be prepared for what is coming, financial aid team for allowing you to not have to worry about paying for school till AFTER you have graduated from your program. And instructors who will always make sure that you are understanding everything that is being taught, as well as help you become a professional! I graduated in 2018 from Dental Assisting Program and Mrs. Garcia was and will always be an amazing instructor, without her I would not be where I am today. Today I am happy to say that I will be returning to CHCP to further my education and I could not be more excited! CHCP definitely gets you prepared for the career of your lifetime!Gabriela Lopez

I give this school 5 stars this school has literally changed my life! I went in just having questions about the programs available. The next thing you know, I started school that night with the pharmacy program.My program director along with the program teachers were always willing to pass on their knowledge and help in any way. So if you are curious about the programs and are ready to get started walk in and be ready to start! The staff is very welcoming! There are plenty of resources in case you are struggling with homework. The career services are there to answer any questions you may have pertaining to job placement and help you revise your resume. I appreciate everyone that I has helped me get to where I am at now!Elisa Ruiz

I've never had a more wonderful experience in a schooling system. The staff treat you like family and want you to succeed in every way possible. The hands on training was extremely informative, and when I had issues staff replied within 24 hours to help walk me through and/or fix whatever issue I was having. They also work with you to ensure you have options for employment, and before I knew it I was hired on before I was even finished with my MA externship. As long as you put in the work and dedicate yourself to learning the material, this school is honestly a wonderful choice.Max

I am a current student at CHCP and I can tell you the school is great ,and they do make you feel very comfortable , the staff is very kind and helpful, they are truelly there for you when you need a hand with class concerns, personal issues or life issues, their open door policy is very real and comforting to have when you feel like you have no one to turn to if you need to talk. I am taking the M.A. course and my instructors Ms.Myers and Ms Ewing are amazing instructors. This school is DEFINITELY a place to come to to get your medical education. Well worth a tour and attending.. I've built friendships that will last a very long time..you become like a family because you are classmates who lean on each other to get through.Tanya Estrada

CHCP is the place to go if you are seeking for a Career in the Medical Field. All of the Staff truly care about you and really want to see you do well and achieve the success you are reaching for. I would personally like to give recognition to Ms. Lynne Turner , she is top tier one of the best instructors on campus. She strives to do her absolute best to make sure her students feel welcomed and continuously goes above and beyond ensuring her students have all the tools they need for Success! 👏🏾 Shout out to Ms. Turner!! Teacher of the year!! 🎉 🏆Joseph Armstrong

I loved the school. The teachers, career services, financial aid and admissions are such great people and very helpful. I loved feeling welcoming, being taught so much in such a short amount time. Even if they’re not your instructors and need help you can always go to any of them and they will help you out with anything you need help with. Great environment, good vibes and a great place to meet people. I was in the M.A. program and they helped me get a job when I was in school and also helped me to get a job once I was done with externship.Mariana Tobar

I’m so glad I made the decision to continue my education with ACI. If I could give them more stars I would. I dropped out of high school and waited till turned 18 and got my GED . I started my first semester at dcccd when Covid hit. I was really bummed but still very motivated to continue my education. When I learned I’d be taking summer 2020 completely online I knew there was a chance I might struggle at the beginning but who wouldn’t ? That’s why there’s available help from your instructors. So I took the courses and failed miserably. I lacked the help and support I needed and deserved at DCCCD. I truly believed community college was my only option for a very long time. Until I heard my neighbors success story with ACI. Being family owned and operated was a green flag right of the bat. It’s very important to know you have people on your side who truly care and want to help the best way possible and I’m confident I will have their full support with anything I need throughout my time here. Im confident I will succeed in their online paralegal program without a doubt. Fred was amazing, very helpful throughout the whole enrollment process. The whole admissions team working close together made the whole process quick and easy. Everyone was very welcoming. They made me feel like family from the moment I walked in, literally. I cant be more excited to start the paralegal program May 17th. Thanks Fred and ACI fam!Ehliysiah

I was in the first cohort for the LVN/LPN program at ACI, and it was so definitely worth it! My experience though, was quite different from many of my peers as I was pregnant through out almost the entire program from beginning to end. Even though I had every odd against me, every one of my instructors did everything they could to ensure my success and I can never thank this administration enough for that. I graduated in October along with my peers, and I just found out that I passed the Texas state board exam, so I am officially an LVN/LPN! I am forever thankful to this school and my instructors Miss Bailey, Miss Nikki, and Miss Tawana. They are the reason that I made it through and the reason I will be successful in my career.Mariah Daniels

As this being my second time enrolling into a college, I will say that I am more than ready to be apart of Arlington Career Institute. When I came across the school I just knew that it was where I belonged. I am more than excited to be apart of the institute and it’s many opportunities that come with it. Not only did the opportunities of the school make me more than ready to start my classes, but meeting Ms. Ashley P. really set the cherry on top. She is soo sweet, caring, and helpful and has made my enrollment process so much easier for me. Without her help I definitely would be at a lost. I haven’t been more ready to start my classes as I am now and I owe it all to Ms. Ashley!Samantha Jones

The financial aid department is horrible. The chat for financial aid never answered my questions. They always told me to call the number. What's the point of having chat feature if they can't answer questions. Speaking on the phone with the financial aid department was a horrible. I've been given the run around regarding aid. People kept telling me that I qualify all I need to do is enroll in another class to be part time. Then, I was told that again I would get a Pell grant and loans. I didn't receive aid so I contacted them a few weeks later to find out that I don't qualify for aid. They had me enrolling in courses and everything knowing that I potentially didn't qualify. The financial aid department is either incompetent or just doesn't care about the students. When I was told I was approved were they just making that up to just get me off the phone?Amanda Chandler

This is my first semester at Lone Star and it has been nothing but problems. The student staff are very rude and unhelpful. The front desk financial aid has no idea how to do her job. The book store and the campus are not on the same page. I won’t recommend going here if this is your first semester of college. It is extremely hard to get help from staff. I had to go speak to a counselor there and instead of them taking me to the back to discuss my business they came out to the waiting area and blurted out what I needed to know. In my opinion this was very unprofessional. I didn’t want my personal business being discussed in front of everyone. Please find students that are familiar with their job and are helpful. These students have no real knowledge of what they need to do.Chanel Diamond

My daughter went there 2015, 2016 & 2017 after graduating from Humble High in 2014. She wasn’t able to get a scholarship for tennis so the plan was to take courses to raise her gpa and transfer her credits to a four-year college. I’ve had a bachelors degree since 1992 so I know the process. The advisor didn’t want me in the office and my daughter was okay with that. I found out after a few semester that she took math three times and flunked it. Her self esteem is shattered and she doesn’t feel confident that she can transfer. They couldn’t even give the paperwork so I could report her on my taxes. I lost thousands in tax rebates, they are the WORST!!!!Bruce Hickerson

My instructor Ms. Brown has been the best leader and teacher I’ve ever experienced. She is always willing to help and answer questions at any time. She is patient, kind, understanding and overall a pleasant individual to be around. She makes everyone feel welcomed and comfortable regardless of their situations which shows she truly cares. I appreciate all her efforts throughout my time here at Concorde and I’m so grateful I got to experience a teaching experience like this one! Thank you Ms. Brown!Celia Pardi

I’m in the Concorde Career Program, my admissions coordinator Mr. Greg Stewart was always on top of things, easy to get ahold of and always professional. He made the admissions process such a breeze to gather through. The program is definitely challenging but so worth it. Concorde understands that some students may need additional resources which they help facilitate. Would recommend to others applying for a professional employment program.Stephanie Rees

I recently just graduated from the ST program. My director Mrs.Harris was very supportive and very helpful. My lecture teacher Mr.Smith was awesome when it came time for certification she made sure if we didn’t understand something she would have private tutoring to make sure we understood. Mr.Anderson understood his assignment as our lab teacher he got us prepared for clinicals i really appreciate them they have taught me a lotlisa burrell

I started school April and I’m close to going out to externship, but I have to say my journey with Pima has been a positive experience. You’re getting your hands dirty in labs, which is a nice because you aren’t sitting in a classroom trying to cram that information with flash cards. And having that prior experience before you leave for an actual job site will be extremely useful and beneficial for you once you hit the ground running. Not only do they help you focus on what exactly it is you need to start your future career in the field of your choosing, but their student resources are easy to access and have them help you with whatever questions you may have. Thank you Pima for helping me stay on track and helping me get one step closer to a job I am passionate about.Sheila Pulido

I had a great experience in this school. I started the journey without knowing what to do, and without expecting anything from me. This school made me fall in love with a career I never thought I would be in (Dental Assistant). Ms. Hicks made me feel welcomed since the first day, I got to her class, and had a great time. Dr. Cuellar and Ms. Leslie as well made enjoy going to school and wanting to learn everyday. They not only teach what you need to learn, but why you need to learn it too. Everything I saw in class, helped me be more prepared when I started externship, and it made it really easy. I now am in place I enjoy and have no problem being in, but this wouldn’t be possible the teachers and staff from Pima wouldn’t have helped a lot. Thank you, Pima!Nathan Rodriguez

Wonderful staff that very caring and helpful to make sure you have what you need to learn. The programs all start at a basic level so it's easy to get back up to speed if you've been out of school for a long time and they are very helpful at ensuring you have a solid start to your chosen career. The pharmacy program was a delight and I've never been so excited to go to class, Mr D is a great teacher and is always available to assist if you're struggling. I learned a lot very quickly during my program and Mr D made the whole experience fun and enjoyable. It was still hard work but as long as you're willing to put in the effort I'm confident PIMA will get you where you want to go 😁Steven Watt

I'm currently having one of the worst experiences ever! I was completely unaware of being enrolled in online classes once the pandemic started. I never spoke with anyone or confirmed this was ok. I specifically chose on campus classes due my struggle with specific subjects. I was unaware until an instructor contacted me. I emailed advising and was removed from the class I was still charged and a hold was put on my account. I have never talked to or discussed classes with anyone for the fall and i am also scheduled and charged for those classes as well. Now i'm told i have to file an appeal to try to have the balance and the hold removed and i cant remove the fall classes until the balance is cleared. Every time I speak with anyone i'm forwarded to someone or a dept. that cant help or explain!Christi Chavis

While I'd love to give a better review, I have to be honest. If you are utilizing veteran services, prepare for a ridiculous amount of wait time. There's never anyone online via chat and when you call if someone answers, it becomes a series of transference to different people or "I'll have someone contact you." This poses an issue as a current student attempting to be successful in class. I've been dealing with this for a year now, so waring to Veterans with education benefits find a different school or be prepared to wait and get the runaround.Mr. Ford

I am finding it impossible to get a return address for a delivery I received containing 2 bottles of your CBD oil and 2 packets of the CBD gummy bears which was delivered to me by Hermes. I initially wanted to cancel the order but was informed that I could not. I did not realise the total price of these items and then my shock at finding out I was calling USA as I am in Scotland UK. Not only have I been charged over £150 Sterling but then I will be billed for the call to the US which was about 20minutes long. Please advisePat Macpherson

I am a student in the MOA program and my experience at concorde I would say it has been amazing.The staff are always willing to help the students to help them succeed and answer any questions they have.If anyone ever has a bad day Stacie and Mari are always open to donating some of their time to the students and help them talk about any issues that they need help with in their personal life.The instructors are very aware of their students and make sure that each and everyone is passing their classes.If you need to find a job in order to survive while attending school Ms.Danielle is always open to helping those who need to find one.Since my second MOD I have been a member of the lamplighter program which is a student leadership program where students help one another including their peers in class and help mentor them as well as help them in anything they need.We lamplighters are always at the service of students and staff if there is ever anything they need help with. If anyone is interested you can come to the campus and make an appointment and explore the campus feel free to go on the website and take a look at the programs we at concorde have to offer!Pedro Beltran

The dental hygiene program here is absolutely wonderful. Our teachers and program director are amazing. But I am giving two stars because of the issues I’ve had with financial aid. It feels almost impossible to get an appointment with them and everything is so confusing. I understand everyone is short staffed but I have been trying to get ahold of my financial aid person for a month. Not only are they hard to get ahold of but they have said things such as “you need to get a job” if we ask to take a loan out for living expenses. Don’t they think we would get a job if we could? The program is full time there’s absolutely no time to get a job. I’m honestly just hurt that they treat us that way when we spend 73k on this program.Leah Broyles

I took a night class. The instructor always wanted to go home early. so instead of teaching us hands on, he just read over the instructions. When i and several others in my class took the tour, they said we would practice on dummys before we drew blood on each other. They lied. "The equipment doesnt work" is what we were always told. Towards the end of your last mod they crammed both badge tests and extern sites. We weren't notified if we got into our externs until the last day of class. Really nerve recking to the students who had to quit their jobs or try to notify their jobs of the schedule changes. The extern hours change constantly.Heather Gallagher

The only reason I placed 2 stars is because the dean and the man who enrolled us was great. But other than that,the reviews for this school is spot on. They care only about money. After financial aid,I was told I still needed to pay 221.00 a month or my daughter would be kicked out. The lady who assisted with FA couldn't care less about anyone who goes to this school. And don't have colored hair either,they'll make you change it. When my daughter could not log in to the online course,no one bothered to help or contact us. I had my daughter withdraw. 18,000 dollars and not even a call back. So I'd shop around for a school and make sure its best for you. This one tho,was not it.Katt T

When researching schools and you read “for-profit” as Concordes main description- believe it. I was accepted into the dental hygiene program and was asked to put a down payment of an amount that was almost 5x my rent. I was considered an “independent student.” (no financial help from family) As soon as I communicated the amount was not doable the school redacted my acceptance and gave my spot to someone else… so before you put all your time, money, and effort into this school-don’t. I cannot speak for the program itself and I’ve heard nothing but great things about the instructor… but at the end of the day that doesn’t matter if Concorde is “for-profit” and not for education.Emilee Gestes

Please do not go to this school. The instructors are very disrespectful and do not teach anything. The purpose is to fail you so that you can pay again since you have to retake the whole semester. The first term had a 30 students class and it went down to like 12 of us. This term everyone is failing so far because the term 2 teacher is random and does not go by the book.There are around 5 students in term 5 which is the last term and most of them have repeated at least one term. I am looking into other programs. Stay away, it is easy to get into the program, but you won't learn anything and NCLEX passing rates are low according to the instructors.Kukita Arocha

I started attending Texas Heath School about two months ago and my experience has been great since the day I walked in the door. My first day walking into the school I was immediately greeted by the smiling face of Mrs. York. She was very attentive and took the time to answer any questions that I had about the LVN program. If she didn't know the answer she took the time to find someone who did. She made sure that I had all of the resources needed for TEAS testing and even told me who had books on sale. A month later she followed up to see if I still had interest in the program and even allowed me to contact her personally if I had any questions. She was VERY helpful with the process and was always there to answer questions. Up until this day she still checks up on me to see how classes are going and she is very encouraging! Her energy can light up a room and you can tell that she genuinely cares. People like her are hard to come by. As far as I'm concerned the world could use more people like Mrs. York.Shanquail Williams

I regret I even have to give 1 star. The ONLY good thing about this school was the teacher I had. Ms. Brinkley was wonderful and very good at teaching us everything we needed to know to pass the class. Thank you Ms. Brinkley! As for the administration the tuition double the price as other schools around the area. A joke of private school. Limited supplies for clinicals! COVID vaccines all across the class still didn’t get to do in person clinicals but they sure charged us for it! Rip off when I go back to school for nursing I will definitely look at different colleges! This class definitely got the short end of the stick!Tracy Kay

This school is trash. The instructors are trash and expect you to already know the information. The owners care nothing about the students passing and only about making money. The Director of Nursing is the biggest piece of trash as she has an air of superiority and an inflated ego and most certainly plays favorites. I would highly recommend that you attend a nursing school that also doesnt charge veterans for room, board and transportation when they are in fact not providing those services to any of the students. Over priced and just trash as a whole.Amber Gibson

My automobile was hit in the school parking lot and no one claimed accountability. Several days later my son (and 2 other people) witnessed one of the instructors hit another vehicle and just drive away. My son reported the incident to the school. Almost graduation time for him and now, because he reported this incident and he did complain that his current instructor gave assignments to do and then tested but they felt they were not being instructed. No class discussion regarding anything. You read, you test. My son made good grades and loved learning. Reward for being honest is that he is not allowed in class now. He has wasted his time with you. You got one star just because you are there.Phyllis Hilyard

This institute does not have a Laboratory program. What you learn here doesn’t count as medical laboratory credits towards a lab tech degree. When I look up training programs for Medical lab unfortunately this pops up. I’ve already spoke to Admin there regarding what I was seeking. They informed me they were doing the same Medical Lab degree and that Lamson isn’t the program for that. For months Lamson has called me claiming to have a Lab program. The recruiters have no idea what curriculum Lamson has apparently, only that they need as many bodies as they can in a room. Being perfectly willing to take my money and mess up my future for an extra body is foul on top of the phone calls.J Awrwah

Instructors are top notch but the admin team is absolutely, depressingly, inadequate and disrespectful. Theres nothing like paying Lamson to come here and be treated like a child. Like an employee. Youre not listened too and youre made to do your teachers job and jumps through hoops to verify your attendance. Typically this is something that the instructor is responsible for but Lamson thinks that's too hard. So you, the student, the customer, are required to do their work for them and when you dont they seek to belittle and degrade you. Not to mention they have no problem calling your apartment or your job seeking info without your knowledge or permission.Lance Taylor

Ms. Irene is the best teacher ever, very knowledgeable and she’s a nurse so she’s aware of everything she teaches you! The admin supports you the whole way even with finding a job and keeping you updated. I would definitely recommend this school to anybody. It’s quick to finish, thorough and you leave with confidence. They have prepared me to not only be a nurse assistant but has helped prepare me for nursing school as well. I really appreciate it.Ausia Lewis

the whole staff here is awesome! Mrs Irene is an amazing teacher who genuinely seems to care about the students education and bettering themselves. She made learning this course fairly easy & is more than happy to help with those who get confused. Ricardo was also very helpful in the admissions process. & Ms Juliana helped me out a lot as well. Very thankful for this experience and training provided by these amazing people. 🖤bekka b.
