Great staff, very caring on how you want to choose your career choices wisely. Very open hearted and welcoming every single one of them.
Currently enrolled in the RN program here. I'm currently mid 4th semester out of 6 semesters. I have 9 months left till graduation. I advise people looking to go to nursing to go elsewhere. Im not happy with my education or consistency of instruction. You would think that for 56,000 we would have the best of everything right? Wrong. I've had the same two sets of scrubs since starting my program a year ago. There have been days where my cohort could not take an exam because there were not enough computers and Half of our iv pumps in our simulation room and skills lab don't work. admissions overloaded my cohort, there are only supposed to be certain amount of students in a single cohort and they blew way past that so getting skills and simulation done is rough. Communication between administration, instructors and students is lacking. I'm sure their certificate programs are great as they're only nine months but for a 20 month Associate program this school is not equipped for it.
I enjoy being at Carrington College everyone treated me respect and they also even help the place was very clean
Carrington was extremely disorganized. It was clear throughout my entire program that they had no idea what they were doing. I was extremely lucky to go to school with a cohort of really smart people because without those people I never would have passed the NCLEX. Almost everything we learned, we taught ourselves.
Carrington college is a good school to attend they give you hands on experience with the subject you are studying they are a great school to work with you when things in life happen unexpectedly I was hit by a drunk driver and they was able to hold my spot and me start back when I am ready I am grateful for all the knowledge They have provided me with and all the excellent care the student needs when I’m need
The staff are all so friendly and nice. When I was nervous to actually start Kensie talked me through everything and helped me feel so much better!
I like carrington college because they were so willing to work through my life style, and never made me feel less of a person. The staff has been very helpful. They were only concerned with my success. I would recommend Carrington College to anyone looking to take the next step in their career
Covid protocols were lax. Several of us could not hear the instructor through her mask. Our classes were interrupted for sales pitches by the administration. The room had poor ventilation and lighting. The seats were uncomfortable.
Disappointed with the program from start to finish. The college is greedy, allowing students to enroll who are not properly screened. Carrington was not prepared to become an online program during covid. The instructor was moody. A total waste of time and money, not preparing me for a career.
they look after themselves more than they look after you even though your the one paying this ridiculous amount of tuition. its all about politics here, some teachers dont even teach but its your fault for failing. save time, money and stress by going to a bigger, cheaper college whos more lenient and supportive to students.
They are all sweet until you start your first class. After that class starts, those same people will ignore you or give you attitude. You pay 50k for an associates degree for nursing, but only 2 of the professors know how to teach. The other "teachers" act as if they paid for your tuition. They may be good as nurses, but should not be teaching. They get irritable if they don't know the answers to the questions and act as if they are doing you a favor by doing what they are hired to do. They are unprofessional, moody, demanding and act as if we are all liars who are not allowed to get sick as if COVID isn't around or as if they never got sick in their life. For 50k I expected quality education, not this circus. This school really needs to hire actual teachers with experience not nurses who think they can teach with no experience in teaching. This is not a cheap school to be testing us like this.
During the short time that we had to go online due to COVID, the transition was a nightmare. Hopefully they already fixed the issues.
I really like how everyone tries to help in any way they can. You really get a feel of full support from all the staff.
The staff at Carrington College are all very sweet and helpful. They give you the impression they want you to succeed in life and become someone beneficial to society. I feel like the environment is about being your "friend" more so then being the educator. It kind of feels like elementary school at times, and make me wonder if the instructors are what they say they are there to do and if they are actually truly wanting for success.
It’s been an awesome experience. I love the class and curriculum. The staff and Teachers are very welcoming. The class sizes aren’t too big. Lots of support as well. Id recommend to my peers. It was a great decision for me.
I have had a wonderful experience with Carrington College. Admissions has been very flexible with my schedule and needs, and has helped me to pursue my passion. The team at Carrington has walked me through each step, and thoroughly answered all my questions and concerns. I will be attending the Vet Assisting program in July, and I look forward to attending!
Carrington was the most understanding and willing to explain everything to me when I was looking at colleges. They provide excellent education in just a few months so you can jumpstart your career. Within the few months you are in class you get hands on experience, for the vet assistance class we could bring animals in and actually practice basic non-invasive procedures. You gain confidence extremely fast and you get the education and skills needed in your career of choice. I 100% recommend this college for those who are looking to be challenged and are willing to learn right from the start to get their career on track.
