Awful disorganization and lack of empathy 8/6/2023

I had requested on several occasions and was not offered any additional resources. We experienced a death in the family and they were less than empathetic. Horrible catholic university. Requests to meet with program director and instructor were ignored.

Tom Johnson 5/2/2023

If you excel at paying an exorbitant amount of money for self-taught learning and useless busy work then this is the school for you! Honestly one of the biggest wastes of time I have partaken in my life. My professor…YouTube. The education system as a whole is so flawed. This university and its professors offered me nothing except busy work and unfair tests. I am deeply embarrassed for this nursing school and my status as alumni.
