Eastwick College - Hackensack — Local services in Hackensack

This school by far is one of the worst schools to attend. It’s better you go to Lincoln Tech or Jersey College at this school You will waste your entire financial aid and student loans. I am not sure what great experiences these other people had at the bottom, this most be artificial intelligence, that’s making those comments, but I am not the only one out of a class of 28 students only three students actually succeeded and most times it was by cheating and then the dean of nursing when her daughter was in school she gave extra credits so her daughter could pass and her name is April. I had the opportunity to be in class with April and I can say she knew nothing some of us in the class was trying to help her and when she did not pass, the dean of nursing gave extra work to the professors so that entire program for the people who were in her level, the majority of them graduated because of the deans daughter being in a program at that time When it comes on the so-called help that you get from the school, it’s not that good. There are a handful of professors that will be there for you. There was a professor that was there and she taught in the bilingual Lpn program and she even said she would not do her (Rn) at Eastwick, If I had known this before started my journey I would have never attended this place and yes, I also forgot to mention there was a time one of my classmates asked Dean why certain things are happening in the program and she said schools are like buying a car. You need to investigate it before you make a purchase, which is crazy all of these things that I’m saying it’s not fabrication and actuality because of what was happening we voice recorded everything to Dean said. So please take my foolish advice. Do not read the parts of the comments that people saying oh this is the best experience I’ve ever had and all these other things it’s complete crap if you do decide to go to school remember, you are going to regret it And come back to see if you agree or not. There are two professors who are females one is Haitian one is Jamaican. They are very good. There is a male nurse. He’s Caucasian and Italian. He’s also good. I’m not sure if these teachers are still there there is a Filipino Professor, he’s very sarcastic. He would think he’s nice but he fails you in a minute. I would rather go to an well known accredited college that I would have to do step-by-step by step rather than pay money to go to school ever again it was the worst experience and waste of time and energy if you choose to make fall into the spider web , please remember I have warned you and they love to say they have a high passing rate but it’s not towards body count that equal the passing rate ask them how they calculate there student ratio in passing rates. The beginning of 2024 I ran into someone who actually did graduate the Rn program which was at Ramsey College at that time and she knew nothing...

I went into Eastwick at 19. My my initial goal was to get into the LPN program upon failing my Entance exam twice in order to go to enter to the LPN program I did decide to do the MA program which if you keep your grades at a C average for all your classes you can then bridge on to the LPN program and the MA program takes about a year and then eight months if it’s in the morning. I could not pass and Entrance exam because it was so hard the curriculums was very very hard and there are other schools out there where you don’t have to take such a hefty entrance exam. When I was in the Ma program it was so easy-going you can really just sit there and you could literally pass and I think a lot of students that were in the MA program had that instilled in their mind so when they did end up you know getting into the LPN program we were just very blindsided. if you are or if you are going to decide to go to the school to the MA program just know that The Ma program is very easy-going but I would take that year or those months to prepare for the LPN program because it is it requires much more and it’s not that the tests are hard it’s really much you know you putting in that effort although this has transpired I did end up withdrawing from the class because it was just too much to handle. I then went to other schools and the entrance exam was so easy I passed of for two different LPN programs the entrance exam the first time. the teachers are great they are very educated and they pushed their students you will learn a lot from the school just a heads up if you are doing the MA to LPN LPN bridge just know it iJust know it is you know really really you know a lot and you’re going to be having to study and make sure you submit your homework on time and just make sure you’re ready because the MA program is nothing compared to the LPN program. The first semester of the lpn program I believe 25% of the students either failed or withdrew. Also you need a laptop not the sh** one they gave you and a printer available cause the teaches would want you to print out the homework hand it to them when you can just email it ( they’ll make everything 10 times harder. I invested money in both and I will say it was a learning experience to get a feel because I am ready now. I start in September Good luck to you all!!( p.s if the grammar is horrible I used a microphone device which wrote...

I personally do not recommend this school. Went to this school twice and was never able to get a job. I recently registered for the LPN program. Asked the owner if he would give me a discount for any help towards the tuition because I had gone to the school before in the past and never got a job in the field I had graduated from and he refused. Not even 10%. My fiance had died of cancer and this put me in a hole financially. I begged and even offered to have the school take money from my paycheck once I got a job but he refused Thomas Eastwick is very concerned with money than actually helping you to succeed. My admission advisor was Venus. She seemed very nice but all she was concerned about was me writing her a good evaluation to the owner. After reading the reviews about her I now see why. For months had me running back and forth, doing things that was not necessary in order to make her appear as she was being helpful meanwhile it was only to further herself. Financial aid department not very knowledgable. Their knowledge base is limited to the computer. I had consolidated all my loans and by doing this it took me out of default status. Diane didnt believe me and refused to even look it up. After begging her multiple times to check she finally did and saw this was true. She jad no idea what an IBR was or the fact that after consolidating your loans and after maxing loans you qualify for a reaffirmation to continue getting loans. Someone gave me a great analogy when referring to this school. You buy a car. You spend thousands on this car. You read the reviews and they say the car is horrible but you still buy the car wasting thousands. After you find out the car is crappy you reach out to the owner who after he has all your money no longer wants anything with you. Then you buy the same car again expecting a different outcome but the results are still the same. The car is crappy and you still cant drive it. Why would you buy that crappy car again for the third time. Read reviews. Remember this is an imvestment that you can never get back and can harm you in the future. A schools reputation is imperative to your outcome cause enployers read them to. Read reviews, check their placement. If a school has only 7 reviews and 6 out of 7 are bad....
