Today was a day in the books it was day 4 of temp issues. The air conditioning has been blowing continuously on top of our heads in the classroom causing myself to get sick triggers my sinus issues in addition to outdoor temperatures not exceeding 58 degrees. When addressed to correct personnel today at day 4 after going to instructors thursday and friday nothing was expressed or resolved concretely. Today [Tuesday] the issue was addressed, however the attendance clerk interrupted the Director of Nursing program while on an alleged conference call; although in font of witnesses I asked her to have Ms Amanda speak with me when she was finish and what class I was in. Ms Amanda barged into our classroom, interrupting our lecture like an angry tyrant yelling about thermostat issues, as if comfortable learning conditions weren't warranted. I was trying to explain but of course she wanted to exit the class and I followed as she asked. We get to the office and before i can say anything she turns to me and begins to spew off at me, I say woah woah woah relax! I was offended by her disposition, I am a student trying to learn and there are obstacles hindering me with distractions of temperatures being set at 40degrees. It was then expressed to me lies because she wasn't aware I had already taken steps of chain of command before addressing the issue. She was very dismissive and condescending and although I had layers of clothing on already, I asked why they couldn't inform us of the misfunctioning of thermostat issues. Amanda states she "doesnt have the time with all the other things she has to do" instead of properly informing students who pay tuition MONTHLY of the inclement temperature within the learning environment. I was assertive in my rebuttal and state "isn't that your job" but of course that makes her angry, and in retaliation she threatens to reprimand me with a verbal warning, then proceeded to dismiss me to class pointing her finger like i was her adolescent child (excuse me) I'm perplexed as to who cares about the students, as we are being taught by so called nurses who obviously lack training in higher education and it shows. Allow Amanda didnt have time to properly inform us of the civility of the happy medium of learning temperatures she had the time to be condescending as usual and make a mockery show us how our uniforms should be worn. For the life of me, it baffles me with what they have time for when they arent blowing...

At first I felt like I was ready to go after 26 years of my health problems holding me back. The advisors sounded so nice and, after taking the test and interview, they made me feel important. Within 5 minutes of acceptance, I was dealing with billing and tuition. Since I was finally not considered for financial aid depending on my parents income, I was eligible. All seemed well.

Received my first uniform, books, backpack, laptop, and everything promised (a little late). Classes started and my grades were great. Then my Epilepsy started to disrupt my life again. From the first time I sat down and spoke to an advisor about the program, I was told, "make sure you let us know if ANYTHING happens so we can help you!" So, I did... all I got was a frown and "I hope the seizures stop". After a couple weeks of seeing me appear sickly and exhausted, my professor pulled me aside and suggested I drop out temporarily and reapply when my health was back in order. I went to talk to my counselor about this and he said it was NOT that simple. A drop-out is a drop-out - no refunding, nothing. So, I kept trying and ended up in the hospital a week later.

I got a call from the nursing program coordinator saying I was officially dropped out of the program. I called crying and told her I was a patient in the hospital and could bring a note the day I came back. She said Doctor's notes had no meaning and she wished me the best of luck.

I had spoken to my advisor a few times afterward, but found out he had left a few months later. Then I received a bill in the mail for the entire tuition. When I called, they said they had no paperwork on any grants I had been approved for and signed.

This school made me smile for a moment, but has caused me nothing but more grief. On top of telling me they'd be there for whatever I needed, they lied to me, excused me while hospitalized, and lost all of my paperwork (I have two other friends who had theirs "lost", also). Please note this school has certification programs - NOT degrees. It costs over twice as much as going to school and getting an actual...

I attended the Lincoln tech nursing program in Lincoln Rhode Island. My experience there was alright. I did feel like a few of the mods I had to just read the book because in mod 2 we had a teacher start out teaching the mod and then someone else came and made the test and it was nothing we were taught. In mod 4 we had a teacher accept another job and she was supposed to finish out our mod she kept missing our classes and she would be teaching us chapters way in advanced we would be testing on chapters 10,12,15,16,17 and would be learning chapters 30-35. I can tell you this I did have some teachers that were amazing. Mrs Avelar was the best one she was there if I had any questions. I can also say when I decided to start pursuing my RN Melissa Gosset contacted me and asked me what I needed for her and offered to run through info with me. I graduated in December of 2019 shortly before the pandemic began. I never got to have a graduation ceremony we ended up with a cheap “virtual” graduation that just showed our name on a power point that someone read off of. I received a tassel for the wrong year in the mail. I never received my lantern. None of us were able to participate in the graduation yet they had one person who actually worked there participate. The final straw has been that NO ONE will accept their credits. I am not able to transfer anything over to any school accept another technical school. I want my Nurse practitioner and don’t wish to attend another technical school. When I met with admissions I was told they were accredited and that I would be able to transfer credits to other colleges and that is far from the truth.

Funny I called corporate before I posted this review and had to leave a message and never received a call back. But after I posted it in google I receive a reply. Why because you had to explain why you are misleading? Still not...
