I have been a student at Herzing since September of 2018 and I have watched that school go down hill. They can not keep consistent nursing instructors and have to make changes to student schedules 2 days before classes start. When they know most of their student population are parents with the majority of us being single parents that work and go to school. But they have made it abundantly clear that they do no support students unless they have money to pay out of pocket. I have watched faculty that has been there since I started grow more and more stressed with the “behind the scenes” politics that go on inside the school. I have watched instructors walk out the door and not look back. Herzing advertises that they are family oriented and all of that but it’s all a joke. They hired the nursing chair to add “ diversity” among the faculty. They have students file complaints on instructors because some of the instructors and other faculty is the rudest people I have ever met. They claim to be a nonprofit organization but have increased cost of tuition twice in just under two years. Oh and don’t have nothing go wrong in your personal life when you fail a class because they don’t care. You can have plan after plan but it won’t be enough for them to let you finish your program when you only have one semester left. This school has been the biggest waste of money and time of my life. I use to enjoy going to school in the mornings I loved the things that I got to learn on a daily basis.. but as their instructors left so did my pride in the school. They do not follow any of the standards that they hold their students to. They don’t educate you if you make a mistake they reprimand you and fail you. They will show you over and over again that you success means nothing to them.. they just want...
Read moreRecommended for real people that have real lives and real responsibilities. I attended the online program for my bachelors and masters degrees in nursing, though there is a stand alone campus here in Akron. I was able to attend both programs full time and I will consider returning when it's time for any post-masters certificates. The admissions department was easy to work with and did not use tactics that made me feel pressured or rushed with deciding to enroll and then re-enroll for my advanced degree. The professors were as helpful as they could be and did everything they could do to prepare me to pass my certification exam (which I did on the first attempt!). The resources that we were provided surprised me because they were so accessible and effective. Lastly, the very important behind the scenes staff-accounts, student services and advisors, library, and tech support were amazing. They always addressed my concerns within a timely fashion and what was not known, they sought out an answer and closed the loop for me. My student services advisor (Meaghan G.) continued to answer questions in this same manner even after I completed the program. Thank you to all of the staff. A challenging journey could have been worse without all of your support...
Read moreMost of these reviews are fake. Please be advised. I attended this school from 2023-2025. This school is WORSE than Hondros school of nursing. I can only speak for the ASN program, but it was taught by 3 teachers, and one of them teaches 80% of the program. Here are some things I wish I knew before I started:
You will have a comprehensive HESI exam for every speciality class (funds, pharm, psych,medsurg, peds, OB), PLUS your exit at the end of your program For your medsurg, peds, and OB HESIs, they are 40% of your grade, so essentially you could have an A in the class and fail if you don't get a minimum of a 750 score on your HESI There is no retake on your HESI, if you fail your HESI, then you fail the class and will have to retake the entire class, which pushes your graduation back by 4 months They are very money hungry due to being a private institution Half of your psych clinical rotations will be online through VSIM, the other half in person Your ENTIRE peds rotation will take place through VSIM As you can see, the reviews are basic, but this is in-depth Please do not waste your money and time here I witnessed a cohort of 40+ students drop to only 4 that graduated on time without...
