Sullivan University Allied Health & College of Nursing — Attraction in St. Matthews

Sullivan University is a For-Profit, private university. All the institution cares about is bringing in money by any means necessary. Nursing students at Sullivan University that actually get through the nursing program (many don't), as of 2022, ONLY 43.3% of nursing students pass the NCLEX which is required for employment in nursing.

This means that 56.7% of Sullivan University nursing students take on tens of thousands of dollars of student loan debt and won't be able to go into nursing. Admissions Advisors are instructed by management to heavily push student loans onto students, even if it means adding a crushing burden of debt onto the students, all for the sake of "hitting the numbers". Not to mention that their student retention rate is terrible.

The nursing program is unorganized and they just want your money. The dean is no help and is always on the side of the professors. Sometimes we don’t have any direction. Class times were all over the place. They don’t unlock blackboard until the Monday that classes start which makes it hard to plan your life. They tell us stuff last minute and expect us to comply. Months into the program they just now tell us we need to have updated immunization forms when they we’re supposed to keep track of them in the beginning. Do not waste your money. Go to a community...
