Kaplan College

Where do I start. I graduated from Kaplan from a VN program in 2011. I a lost didn't start with Kaplan because the enrollment dept. is totally unprofessional. No return e-mails EVER and maybe you will get a phone call, but there are usually excuses to why they never received your messages. The price tag is over 30k forcing students to use student loans. Even if you have grant monies, this will get you through the first year, but not the second. In the beginning, the instructors were never consistent and not one teacher to complete a course; instead staff passes their exams off to the next poor unfortunate teacher that must deal with unhappy students due to errors in the prior instructors exam. The clinical rotation is okay, but you will only get experience in a long term facility, although they (Kaplan) will tell you how you will have clinicals later on in acute care hospitals. Once you get through the first term, things may get better as it did for us. We actually had one teacher for our second term, then going into term 3, we had one teacher per course. By term 4, teacher started to decline again and you basically were counting down the days to when you were done. As far as after graduation- Amazing follow-up and support to prepare for NCLEX. I would honestly say that if you have no other options and can handle some unprofessionalism upon enrollment, then it is not a horrible school. It did get better after term 1.

Kaplan College in Vista CA, Don't waste your money or time. The lack of communication will cost you more than what you are looking for. The Heart ache and Drama is not worth it. This college is horrible I wouldn't recommend this college to my DOG! I would have rather went with UEI.
