American sentinel university scam free#

What I would have to say is different strokes for different folks.if practicum/clinical is what you will need then you perhaps should not attend this school. I was satisfied with the results I found!!!ĪSU is an excellent school I am in the program as I write (literally :). I did plenty of research prior to enrolling with ASU, as I checked the U.S Department of Education (DOE) website ( ) and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) website ( ), the CCNE website ( ), and finally the Colorado Commission on Higher Education ( ) as ALL four (4) of them have American Sentinel University listed as accredited and/or approved.

Please see bottom of page #2 ' Recognized nursing accrediting Commissions: National League for Nursing Accreditation Commission (NLNAC) and Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE).' ĭORA Link: or or All of the programs listed on the DORA site offer associates and/or bachelor's programs that lead to 'initial' LPN/LVN or RN licensure. I would not attend a school that does not have either. CCNE and the National League of Nursing Accreditation Commission (NLNAC) accreditation serve as the 'gold' standard for nursing program accreditation. The program is geared towards the licensed RN, hence forth the RN to BSN, RN to MSN requirement. I think that you are overlooking the fact that the school does not offer a 'direct entry' program of study leading to the 'initial' RN licensure. I previously posted the following in another forum some time ago. Good luck where ever you decide to go, just be sure to check all the facts so you can make an informed decision. This school may have CCNE accreditation, but why is it not approved by the state? This would concern me if I was looking into this as a school option. I checked out DORA for the CO board of nursing, and can't find them anywhere under approved education programs.

Please feel free to contact me by phone or private massage/email to address additional concerns on the ASU master's level nursing degree program. ASU values the input of its students and goes out of their way to find ways to improve student satisfaction, while increasing the quality of the education that each student receives. I have had ten (10) fantastic, yet fair instructors/professor and one bad professor that no longer teaches at the school. No obstacles or high pressure tactics from staff. The admissions and financial aid process was easy and well laid out. I have recently received several offers to teach asynchronous and synchronous nursing courses and have accepted one of the offers. And to prove that I am a real person, I have provided a link to the schools announcement section, as I was selected as student of the month for October 2010. I started my program in March 2009 and completed the program on November 30, 2010, while working full-time. I received a great education that has equipped me with the needed skills and/or tools to go into the for-profit or non-profit nursing classroom and help the perspective nursing students meet his or her goals of becoming a future LPN/LVN or RN. The MSN program is challenging, yet rewarding. The MSN student is required to submit a weekly assignment and to submit a response to a discussion board posting. The courses are designed to be completed in a eight (8) week format. The CCNE accreditation provided a type of additional quality assurance for me and because of this assurance I had no trouble when I applied to a post-master's clinical nurse specialist and a Doctorate in Nursing Practice (DNP) program from other CCNE accredited schools. Department of education approved accreditind agency. I truly enjoyed my studies and because ASU's nursing programs are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) and the Distance Education and Training Council a U.S.

I am Jim K and I graduated from American Sentinel University's Master of Science in Nursing education program on November 30, 2010, Summa Cum Laude.Īmerican Sentinel University (ASU) offers the RN to BSN, RN to MSN, and the BSN to MSN with 5 specialty concentrations (management and organizational leadership, education, case management, nursing informatics, and infection prevention and control).
