20 Best Rn Programs In Austin, TX (2022 Updated)

My daughter will begin her sophomore year at CTX next week and she had an amazing freshman experience last year. She lived on campus, which is very safe, clean and engaging community. The dorms are new and very well maintained. The cafeteria food is very good, but like any student it's not home cooking, but they offer healthy choices and a good variety daily. There are MANY opportunities to get involved and the professors are amazing at CTX! This is a small school but with the benefits of a top notch education. The staff challenges the students to serve in the local community and share their talents while pursuing their education. There are opportunities to go on mission trips and our daughter went to Africa for 10 days. She had an amazing experience. Our daughter missed a few days of classes due to an infection and the professors were very understanding. It's a family at CTX and she was immediately welcomed into the family and well cared for as a new student. As her parents and being many miles away, it was reassuring to know what a great community we left her in last fall. We are CTX's biggest fans and have a number of students attending this year, as well as next year because of her great experience. Visit this campus, stay with a current student overnight and get the full experience. If you are looking for a great education, you will be amazed at the talent they assembled in their staff and the excellent students who attend this wonderful school. As a fan of online reviews and listening to the advice of others, I am happy to take the time and share our amazing experience and encourage you to take a look at this special college.Shannon Schmidt

I love it here at Concordia! I am currently in a summer class here and will be attending my second year at Concordia in the fall. The campus is beautiful and the professors are understanding and very helpful. I love the smaller class sizes they make me feel like I am actually getting what I'm paying for. Tuition for a private school isn't all that bad. I got into 5 other private colleges and 3 state colleges and this was the best rate. With a scholarship paying school off in full isn't all that difficult. I love it here at Concordia and I'm very proud to be a part of the tornado family. I'm glad I chose Concordia over my other options.Nicole Zon

I attended the Dallas/Fort Worth campus of Concordia University for a Masters in Education and overall my experience was horrific. My e-mails were ignored for days to weeks from the administration in both Dallas and Austin on important matters ranging from financial aid to course requirements. The campuses appeared to not be able to communicate with one another on even the most basic of tasks which made it incredibly annoying. It has been a frustrating period with this University. I do not recommend this school for a Masters program and if you dare to brave it make sure you steer clear of their Dallas/Fort Worth campus.Jean M

I have had a wonderful experience at the Texas Health and Science University. They provide affordable education in traditional Chinese medicine and business sciences to students from Central Texas and overseas. The Texas Health and Science University hires the very best faculty from top-ranking Chinese medical universities and business administration programs. Students travel to work and study at the Texas Health and Science University from many different states and foreign nations. The Student Government hosts super fun events. The students, faculty and staff are all very friendly, welcoming and down-to-earth. The faculty and student interns provide outstanding healthcare at the Austin Acupuncture Clinic. Come to Texas for a great education.Ryan Haecker

Dr. Yu and Dr. Cao are amazing acupuncture teachers. It’s a shame that acupuncturists aren’t considered physicians because the truth to medicine lies here. I highly recommend anyone/everyone to consider getting acupuncture for their body as well as maintaining their energy levels and physical well-being. Love the staff here, the student interns really know what they’re doing, and it’s a magical place to shift your mindset when you first come in, to after you are done receiving acupuncture and you feel refreshed. I have left the clinic with no cramps, neck pains, and other bodily pains. It’s truly amazing how acupuncture makes one feel after they try it.Angeliq Flores

Few months after I got my Master Degree from Texas Health and Science University, I got my acupuncture license. Now I have been doing Acupuncture for few months. Great school to attend. I learned a lot from the Professors and made a lot of lifetime friends from this school. I would definite recommend this school for everyone who would like to seriously study acupuncture & Chinese medicine, and become acupuncturist who helps people with their health problems. :- )Caleb Li

Overall this is an amazing school. All the staff members are always there for you and they always strive to go above and beyond the call of duty. The school in general is a fun environment to actively retain and learn all the necessary aspects of the type of trade you are trying to obtain. I wish all higher learning schools would be like this school. The Instructors are so knowledgeable and so patient with every student on the right teaching method so everyone can feel like they are learning. I have never felt so accepted at a place even though I had no knowledge what so ever of the materials being taught. They hire only the best and retain these great staff members. The curriculum is on pace with all other schools and probably rivals them as well. I am so appreciative of the amount of caring for every student gets the right type of education at the school. The only thing that I might say they could do better is that because of Covid and some other arising issues is that sometimes the class had to do some maintenance work around the school that was not planned in the curriculum and we really did not learn on those kind of days. We did not mind it much and always did help out, but felt like we had no choice. This is not a complaint, but an opportunity for the school to address the issue. Maybe they could implement this into the curriculum and let students know that there may be some days like this that may arise, so that all students are aware issues like this may arise. I am really sad to leave, but know that I am prepared for what lies ahead in my future. Thanks again to all the Staff, Instructors, and last but not least The Owner of the School. I can see why they got a Seal of Approval from the White House.Amir Mahboubi

I must say that the moment I spoke to Shawn Jamali over the phone in March of 2014, my life changed. He motivated me to come on in to show me what Austin Career Institute could do for my life. The training was awesome. The staff and also the things that the work force offered as well. The tools and the laptop gave us the ability to learn and graduate. The first class that he instructed and we are awesome. I jumped into remote command HVAC where I controlled units throughout different cities from a command center. I moved on from there using my Austin Career Institute's knowledge to land a job in the Artificial Intelligence Robotics field to drive and program self driving autonomous cars. I traveled the United States promoting the self driving technology while also performing trouble shooting and wiring techniques that I learned in school. I am continuing my journey in robotics as a technician with self driving forklifts. My journey has been amazing. I owe a huge thank you to Shawn and his amazing team. I'm forever grateful. Thanks.Larry Campbell Jr.

After a change in careers, I had an opportunity through the Texas Workforce Commission . I was asked to review several schools before making a decision on where I would take the HVAC. I met with the Administrator, who was very down to earth and was able to explain the value of coming to school here ACI, I received tools to start me with off in the trade. The instruction is great for a majority, if not all, styles of learning.A BIG plus for me is the hands on training that we are receiving when it comes to learning the different concepts that we are going through. The additional benefits include the teacher very professional help me create my resume and job searches…In 2 more weeks I will be graduate at school and today I got a company hiring me as HVAC Tech, I so happy… Thanks Mr Shawn. I would highly recommend this school for those who want an opportunity for a new career.Tony Phan

I’m in Mrs. Emily’s, CMA (certified Medical Assistant) morning class from 9am-1pm. I’m currently one of the ambassadors for my CMA program and I have met many interesting people while representing my class. I started the class on January 6th of 2022. I currently reside in killeen/Harker Heights, TX., area. I choose to attend the Austin area Cybertex after visiting the reviews online and the school. I learned that the teacher for the Austin location was also the director of the school, this let me know that she had a vested interest in her students success and I was correct. Mrs. Emily is beyond helpful and interested in her “babies “ students learning and understanding each subject matter. I drive and hour and 20 minutes to get to class and haven’t missed a day as of yet because of the encouragement of Mrs. Emily and the subject matters interest me and I don’t want to miss anything. I could have chosen to go to a number of other CMA that were closer to home but I drive here because of Mrs. Emily and her teaching style. If you are looking to get your foot into healthcare or trying to get a leg up on getting into a competitive nursing school program, like I am, this is an awesome place to start and an amazing instructor to learn from. Thank you Mrs. Emily.First Lady

Making the choice to attend CyberTex has been one of the best decisions I have made. From day one, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and ensured that any concerns I had were addressed and I truly felt I was in good hands and not just a number like at other institutions. The instructors are welcoming and knowledgeable. They truly take the time to make new students feel like an asset to the school. Specifically Mrs. Emily, the director and day-time instructor for the CCMA program makes the learning process engaging for students with all levels of medical background. She always goes above and beyond to ensure that the content used in class is relevant and does not shy away from making necessary correlations between the curriculum and real life applications. Her extensive experience and enthusiasm for the field is ever-apparent and makes for a truly refreshing learning experience that every classroom should aim to mimic. The work she assigns is of a level that effectively reinforces the material covered in class but also allows for students to maintain a good amount of time for life outside of school. I am thankful that she tailors the course to not only the end of course certification tests, but also to the limits of what we as students are wanting to learn.Kameron Hill

If you are contemplating on attending CyberTex for the Medical Assistant (MA) Program, just do it! Mrs. Emily Winston, Director of the MA Program and the instructor of the day class. Mr. Bell is the instructor of the night class. These two instructors are not only awesome, but make an awesome team. They compliment each other as teaching partners as they both teach in their own different ways, but yet, have the same purpose….helping and teaching their students. Classes are packed full of the Body Systems and much much more that will get you ready for the CCMA Certification. I am in the day class with Mrs. Winston and the way she teaches for a slow , old timer (like me) is perfect!!! I didn't go to college as school wasn't for me. Although, since being in Mrs. Winston's class, I am at 100% with my grades which is absolutely amazing and all thanks to her and her teaching style. If I can do it, anyone can. Our class is a fun bunch. Add Mr. Bell from the night class into our day mix and man oh man….we are rockin'. Labs are hands on. We practice injections and drawing blood on each other, the real deal. Come join the MA Program, you won't regret it!!!!!!!Elaine Vinklarek

I’m a local Austin nurse for over the last decade, one of many professions that require among perhaps others, basic life support certification by the American Heart Association, and every two years I go to this facility for it. It’s quick, it’s fast, they’re knowledgeable, and as someone who procrastinates down to the wire of needing to renew my BLS, there is always a class that I can sign up tomorrow (in my experience). If for nothing else, add their contact and website to your notes app. If you need a cert, check these guys out. I no longer need to keep ACLS up to date, so I couldn’t speak to that. But if you take BLS often, then you’ll know these certs can be certain degrees of tedious. I’d say over the years, I’ve never complained about that with these guys and gals.Ken Dait

Very helpful to have a place to go to for CPR renewal vs call individual CPR certified trainers who are hard to contact or don’t respond. My only complaint is was it was a little hard to find when I was following directions from GPS. I missed the exit from 183 then once I got there, there are multiple offices so I had to walk around trying to find building A from where I parked at building E. Maybe you all can provide specific directions?? Zee was a great instructor. Thank you for your helping in getting my renewal and thanks RC Health for providing this service.K Ham

Awesome instructors! I got my BLS cert and feel so prepared to use my skills. The instructors are so helpful with guiding you along, whether you’re a pro or newbie. Everyone was so kind and make sure to address any questions or concerns you have, even if they need to go over it multiple times Talon and Z were awesome instructors and I appreciated the course I received.Cara Crocker

From my past experience and working at DeVry University at Austin Campus, The atmosphere is always welcoming. Student who needs any help for the tuition contact the DeVry people and they will set you up with the professor for that course and they will also follow-up how the classes are going. Student just have follow three rule: 1) Post the discussion on the course shell, 2) submit the assessment on time and 3) let your professor know if you have any trouble in courses. Let the DeVry People know if you have trouble, they will always lend the hand. I consider DeVry University as my second family. I will miss them them after I graduate. All the advisory at DeVry University In Austin will certainly help you regarding selecting the course that will best suitable for you so that you wouldn't have any trouble in that courses.Pinkal Patel

Fantastic! I've been attending DeVry for just over 2 1/2 years and will graduate with my bachelor degree this Summer! I have also worked on campus as a student worker and love that as well. The faculty cares about their students and try their best to help students succeed. The staff also care about the students, as I mentioned, I have worked as a student worker with the staff, and from that I have been able to see who they really are. They truly care about the students and genuinely want each student to succeed. They are all very helpful and their main goal is not meeting quotas, but rather seeing every one of the students reach their educational goals. Fantastic University!Charlene Lewis

Devry University has been one of the best schools I have attended and proud to say I will graduate in 2019. In my experience what makes Devry and an excellent University is the staff . As many students know, it can be a big challenge registering, tutoring and most important finding a great advisor that helps you transition to Devry University. My advisors Melissa Callaway from Austin tx and Melissa Hickock from San Antonio tx have been a great help for me. These women helped me tremendously and I want them to know I am so greatful for their help…Thanks, Sylvia KennonS Kenn

Don't to hybrid courses. Stay online if you want to save some time and gas. Ms.Lopez, who teaches the final course for certification, doesn't consider a student's busy life. She keeps each assignment locked and open for less than 24 hours. Students are required to do an internship. My wife is a Dean list student with a 4.0 average. She works a 15-hour work day while I'm on active duty for the military. If the school requests more from a student, there needs to be better communication and understanding if needs academically aren't met. If a student has such a complex schedule while working a full-time job and internship, there should be an effort to keep classwork unlocked and available to the deadline. Ms.Lopez failed to understand what a hybrid course is. She would have to go to class to do online work. If most of the work is online, why not keep all assignments open so the student can work ahead to avoid incomplete tasks? It's very thought-provoking to think that if the course's work were open for the duration of the system, then most students would complete all the work early to account for sleep and other daily life activities. In my eyes, I don't see that as an issue. In my experience, it was encouraged to work ahead. I now have to pay for my wife to retake the course and pay another time. This feels like the school wants more money. I could take her transcript and take a class with a more memorable teacher in community college for way less or possibly free. It's crazy to think that I could save money by paying for my wife's certification test for a couple of hundred because the school will not reward her certification until the course is completed. Let us not forget that she paid for the cert in the tuition. Don't think the certification test is free cause it's not; you paid for it one way or another. She'd have to waste another month of our time and money to retake a course, not even to receive an actual degree.Zachry Correa

CHCP is GREAT! I loved being an LMRT student here! I love how the teachers are so involved in your education and want you to be successful! Miss Salazar was amazing and she always pushed all of her students to go above and beyond! Career Services is great! They were so involved in my grad out process and did everything to make sure I was set for success with finding a job and Ms. Nayak was so helpful and communicated with me on a daily basis! I love CHCP so much! I’m so glad I went through them and I can’t wait to further my education with them when I bridge for the (R) RT program! Thank you CHCP for everything!Samantha Velez

This place is absolutely amazing! All of the staff is very supportive from the very beginning. Vanessa at admissions helped me choose the best career for me and all my teachers were always flexible and made me believe in myself while doing skills. Nensi at career services always checked on me and made sure I had what I needed. Externship coordinator Mr. Clarence was always checking on me while I was on site and made sure I was on track with everything. Thank you to this amazing school for helping me have a career and now my mom is happy to say she has a college graduate!Maria Hernandez

My experience with this Health center was alright in the beginning of me going here. But now it seems to be going down hill. My last few appointments would get canceled but this one really did it. They say that they called me to inform me that my appointment was canceled. Which I’ll admit they did call ONCE but I missed it and had no clue what it was in regards to bcs no one left a message. And I still received messages saying to show up 15 mins early which I also did just to get turned away. A waste of my time. But thanks for the past care I’ll be looking for a different health center (:Sahge Saili

(Translated by Google) I really like how they treat patients with kindness and in your language…the doctors are very friendly and they put a translator to make sure the patient understands. I love the help girls for all the help they provide. (Original) Me gusta mucho como tratan a los pacientes amabilidad y en tu idioma..los doctores muy amables y ponen traductor para estar seguro de q el paciente entendio.las muchachas para ayuda me encantan por toda la ayuda que brindan .Cynthia Nevarez

Too much wait they sent me in the room and then they forgot about me,before that already waited for 1 and half hour…now more wait,if you have nothing to do at all then just come here toh spent your time…….Faisal Azad

When reading this, keep in mind that this is a private institution with four other campuses w/ the company spreading themselves thinner w/ each campus they establish. It feels like a overall community with the students and professors here. I enjoy being in class with a good amount of my professors. Wonderful school, equipment, and professors, it’s a little getting better each trimester as they listen to feedback. Covid-19 is just one of those things that has made the experience that more challenging both for me and for them. It’s unfortunate to not return to fully on-campus learning to protect assets. I recommend not choosing here if accepted elsewhere if you want what you’re paying over $100,000 for to be worth it. It was a challenge feeling like most key things were worth the investment. Overall, there just needs to be something done to continue to promote clear and concise communication. Maybe a flaw lies where most faculty and admins are spreading themselves thin by doing more than they are reasonably capable of doing in and outside their jobs. Examples include having multiple roles/classes, pursuing a doctorate or PhD education for a raise or to learn more, etc. This means that they’ll be either unavailable or under distress and therefore unable to spend enough comfortably-fair time to have in-class discussion. We feel responsible to remember to remind them to respond, often. And when they do, their responses are short and unclear and leave us wondering if they assumed to understand us. With short time and energy, assumptions and frustrations abound. Everyone’s time and energy is so spread thin; this is concerning to represent as a graduate school. All agree that we feel like there’s always someone dropping the ball with communication and it’s quite difficult to find clear and concise info on their website. Not every course or professor is clear or s organized; we have to spend an extra amount of time outside studies working with others to understand what to do, how to find everything, what conflicts with our schedule, what they expect from us, etc. and I get it is our responsibility to bring these up, but it’s frustrating that this has been happening for years! BUT if you have a professor that is clear about expectations from day 1, you’ll have an amazing experience and be more effective in your learning pursuits for that course! Regardless of professor, there are courses that took everyone such a long time to get our heads wrapped around because of a lack of fundamental structure or clear expectations in key areas that they still don’t get—especially for a graduate school. It was unfortunate to see how misunderstood we felt with our frustrations for these courses: Just ask ANYONE about EIP 1, PIP 1, GA 1+2–expect to be mostly on your own with these. It’s not about liking the material or teacher as much as feeling like you’re able to understand what’s clearly expected of you to study/submit in assignments. These courses are overdue for successful outcomes. Now, don’t get me wrong; although this particular branch has some fundamental improvements to make, they’re improving in all areas—even if it’s one trimester at a time. Now, I’d rather the people changing those elements were more apt to improve their listening/communication/time management skills. But in all, we’re all handling some big challenges right now with 2020/21. They do the best they can and have— for the most part—recognized that we are, too! They have some kinks to work out, but I enjoyed it here either way. You’ll see plenty of positives as they were my first choice for a reason! I appreciate their SWAG, beautiful campus, updated equipment/rooms! Very grateful to work with many wonderful professors who are actively working in their fields, who care about you, and who do so much to help their students succeed. You’ll like it here but now you’re at least a little more prepared to expect to find some—we’d say—unreasonable kinks. Just don’t let it get to you if you can help it. Find what works for you, stick to, and improve it over time.Matt Johnson

Recently finished my MOT program here. I was in the FLEX program. Positives: + The Flex program allows you to work, attend to your family, and school at the same time. + Most of my professors were invested, knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly loved the OT profession. +The Austin campus is in a good location with lots of restaurants near by. +Definitely one of the most ethnically diverse OT programs. +I was prepared to sit for the board exam upon graduation. I past on the first attempt. I truly believe the program set me up for success on that exam. + Most of the classes were hybrid and they did a great job of attempting to appeal to all learning styles. Cons: – The fieldwork/clinical rotation process is a mess! It's just plain awful! I would have never chosen this school had I known what horrible experience I'd go through just to get a placement! First, they initially told us during the interview and orientation that we will get to make a "wish-list" of our preferred sites and locations. That's a total lie! The only option we received was to choose between 1 of 3 regions of the country, yep the entire country! THEY DO NOT TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION WHERE YOU LIVE, GO TO SCHOOL, OR WHERE YOU WANT TO LIVE, at all! I chose the central region which means I can get placed in any state as north as Montana and South as Texas. To make matters worse, most of my cohort learned where they were placed within 1-2 months of the start date. So basically, you can get placed anywhere in the United States with no input from you at all, and be expected to move there with as little as a few weeks (some a few days) notice. If you attempt to email them to ask for an update, you'll get a generic response. They show no compassion for students individual needs during this process and consistently told us to "relax" while providing no real updates, which felt very dismissive. I was forced to take a leave of absence when they failed to find a suitable placement for me my first term, delaying my graduation by 4 months. Honestly, I have so many more awful stories about the placement process, but ultimately I don't regret going to this school. I just wish they would have been more upfront about the clinical rotation process for OTs .Lisa Epps

I would not recommend this school for any program for the issues my son had in this school. My son, 2.5 years into the program of Physical Therapy, has one of his last oral finals coming through covid and they fail him over, the professor claims, a “safety issue” on the exam that wasn’t even in his book. ? NO SECOND chance NO RETAKE of the class and he’s now $60,000 in debt. Could it have been personality conflict with professor.. yes.. so , okay, fail a young man. This professor should wonder why he’s teaching and shaping young people.. Grades were good for 2.5 years ! No other help!! But the school claims they help …. Did not help my son …they say dedication to helping these young professionals.. words and actions EMPTY. What a joke ! Be careful on what you choose. I just don’t want another young person dreams completely crushed with no help from University of St. Augustine staff.Dawn Dolphin

I had such a great experience at Austin Medical Assistant School! The instructors were amazing and very knowledgable. They were genuinely happy to be there for their students, which made all the difference in learning the material. The school kept us safe during COVID and when it was appropriate to meet in person again, they offered a lot of assistance and encouragement. I gained a lot of valuable hands on experience and confidence from the in person labs that has helped in my job now. 10/10 would recommend!Mary Partee

I had the most professional and personable instructors. They were very kind and through .When I was being taught . My classmates were the sweetest and helped the journey go by so much faster . The most beneficial thing to me was definitely having the hands on experience it makes a world of a difference .Destiny Thomas

I love Strayer University. The awesome office staff that will always take the time to help you. Very nice and knowledgeable people in the LRC. Dedicated and caring professors. I go to online classes but I can always call my local campus for help or stop by and on the way out I usually pick up Strayer pens, tote ear buds or whatever 'Strayer swag' is availableMegan Mcbride

The instructors and the staff at Strayer University are wonderful. My experience with the school has been a great one. I would recommend this school to anyone who is seeking an education but does not have the time to physically attend. My online experience has been great!Entrece Mosley

The University of Texas at Austin (also known as Texas, UT Austin, or UT) is a publicresearch university and flagship institution of the University of Texas System. Founded in 1883, its campus is located in Austin, Texas, United States, approximately one mile (1.6 km) from the Texas State Capitol. UT Austin was inducted into the Association of American Universities in 1929, becoming only the third university in the American South to be elected. The institution has the nation's eighth-largest single-campus enrollment, with over 50,000 undergraduate and graduate students and over 24,000 faculty and staff.Rito Reagan

Loved my time there. The campus is very big (but not overwhelmingly so), and one can walk to most classes in 10-15 minutes. Many choices of places to eat, either on the Drag or on the several dining rooms across campus. Only complaint about the campus itself is parking (which is either difficult to find or far away but always expensive, nonetheless), and the never-ending construction on campus, which can be quite an annoyance sometimes due to the route disruption or noise. Hook 'em!Mauro E. Parro Jr.

Over the years, the University of Texas at Austin has developed and built the campus into an increasingly beautiful place. There are innumerable study spots and incredible views to be found all over campus. Further, they've been working on street infrastructure to make campus walk-areas safer and more accessible to pedestrians or bikers. Overall, great university.Paul Lewis

Don’t bother, you’re better off going through a self paced program. We basically watch YouTube videos and teach one another. Administrative department is NEVER available and when you are able to catch one passing in the hall, he/she is vexed. You can call and email allllll day and never get a response so the cards they have sitting are for decor. Admissions are just sales men and we all know salesmen can’t be trusted!! RUN to YouTube, you’ll save thousands of dollars and hours of frustration.VANCE M

Best advice is to please consider a community college or other university first. You are expected to be on campus Monday-Friday, there is no flexibility at the Austin Campus. ADN bridge program is longer than any other bridge program and way too expensive. Save your money, go to a community college, there is plenty of resources, flexibility and financially better in there than here.Canela ParaVos

Are you looking for a CNA school? Well, look no further, sign up for classes at Healthcare Career Center! I took this course with Mrs. Sandy as my instructor and I'm so glad I did. She is an amazing instructor/mentor who believed in me when no one else did and for that I am forever grateful. Immediately upon finishing the course, I passed both of the state exams and had felt over-prepared while taking it. The groups are small which makes learning the skills and asking questions very easy. CPR certification is also included in this course and you will get the chance to meet with a few job recruiters. Overall, highly recommend HCC!Phung Truong

Sandy is an amazing teacher who encourages students to succeed. She is passionate about health as well as teaching and it shows. She explains things clearly and I felt completely prepared for my exams and ready to enter the professional world as a CNA. I passed my CNA course and I am now (years later) going back to get my nursing degree. I am truly grateful for having her as a teacher and giving me a solid foundation to prepare me for my CNA as well as nursing school. Thank you Sandy and the entire staff at Healthcare Career Center!Megan Arias

I came here, with no prior experience in healthcare field at all,and I must say, it was amazing. Mrs Sandy is passionate about what she does and so is the rest of the family. It was a great learning experience. Taking the written test and the skills part was a breeze because I was well equiped with all I needed to know. Now I have started working as a CNA, and my co workers are finding it hard to believe it's my verry first time working as a nurse aide. Best decision/choice of training facility!!Becky Bill

Recently, I was helping a friend who was interested in the program. We spent a day searching for schools and wanted additional information about this one. Today we decided to call the school to speak with someone for further explanation to our questions. After communicating with three separate individuals, we were transferred directly to an advisor named Tracey. As soon as we stated our interest in the program and our question, we were interrupted abruptly with the question of “did you go to the website” as if an individual who was curious about a perspective program would not have already done so. How would we have the number? How would we have any previous knowledge of this program without doing so? From my very brief conversation we got the clear idea of what type of institution this is. A place where prospective students will just be redirected back to the website. A place where you are expected to conduct yourself professionally but are met with unprofessional individuals.joanna

Horrible assistance with little to no consideration for military members. I have spent months resending paperwork to various people within the school's administration in order to have my student account reflect everything needed in order for me to take classes from Austin Community College. I have worked endlessly to have my information corrected, while currently being deployed to Middle East. I normally get the typical response of "We don't handle that in this office," after I was directed to their office from a different member of their adminstration. I really believe that there is an overall lack of knowledge within this school's adminstration and it is disappointing that they are just another big institution more concerned with making money, rather than taking care of their prospective students.Taetae Mckinney

it is not clear to me why they demand going to lectures in person if you are an online student. Some of the students have jobs, some have other things and that is why are online classes. This campus is great, the professors are great, I just don't understand why they require in person in the late hours.If you live in the north, you are wasting time in traffic, not to mention the new gas prices. Online classes should be online …m s

Very impressive facility for a community college. Lots of passionate and competent people trying to keep things running there. You can tell they care about the community and are trying to reach out to the students to motivate and inspire them. Great facility.Aaron Zaremsky

TCE is the best school I've ever been to. it's cheaper than any other school I've attended. They have MA program for LESS than 10,000 while others school are over 24,000..the times are flexible and the instructors have over a decade of experience. It's the only school i can honestly say is there for the students and not about money. They will help you succeed. all you have to do is show up and put in the effort. seriously if you have less time and less money but want to start in the medical field, TCE is your school.mariam C

At TCE i took the CNA program and passed! The instructor there was amazing! Everyone at TCE is really helpful and really shoving people in the right direction for the future! If you don't pass the class they give you a chance to come back again and take it. I am also in the EKG/ECG and restorative aid class and they're really awesome! Im learning so much here and i love this place! Great people!Dawn Fowler

This a great school if your trying to get your CNA certification. The teachers are well knowledge and you not only learn the curriculum, but what it truly means to be a CNA. A CNA that will love his/her work, and what it truly means to care for other peoples loved ones. It's education with a heart.Mauro Hernandez

I received my bachelors degree from WGU and it was a really good experience. When I decided to go back for my graduate degree, i chose WGU. Unfortunately, it appears WGU has completely changed. I submitted the WGU graduate application and got no response. Finally one person emailed me and referred me to someone who told me I was a drop out, so I would have to wait an extended period of time to re-enroll. I let them know I had graduated and did not understand this. No response. Finally the original person I talked to emailed me back explaining she didn’t work with graduates but referred me to someone who did. No communication from that person either. It appears to me that WGU doesn’t really have an interest in graduates returning. I’m very disappointed that after 4-5 weeks I’ve been unable to get started. I used to refer friends to WGU, but I will no longer do that. I will also seek my graduate degree elsewhere.Dawn Phillips

It's a great deal at an accredited online university. It also has the right about of challenge to be interesting without being overly difficult. My only complaints are that my enrollment counselor was dishonest about the workload (much more busywork) and that the physics curriculum didn't have enough math in it. I had to write 9 physics essays and take zero physics tests and that doesn't prepare me to teach physics very well, in my opinion. But, at the end of the day, it is a little tedious but it is much easier and cheaper than having to drive to a traditional university. If you just want a masters (I get a raise with one) and don't care where you get it, this is a good place to do so.Greg Poe

Horrible college do not go here unless you want to be recorded while you take tests be forced to purchase a web cam get told a bunch of lies and cannot take out a certain amount of loans then mind u they get your transcripts refuse to give you all of your allowed credits from transcripts i would of never came here to feel like a prisoner especially for this being an online format I’m just offended was lied to by admissions team rude mentor had to be on webcam to even visit with mentor which is doing way too much for my liking had to write 4 letters on why I should be accepted into this bogus college I’m just offended to say the leastParis Higgs
