  I would not recommend this "university" to my worst enemy. I watched my intelligent and driven mother struggle through each quarter as professors, deans and leadership seemingly worked against students to ensure their graduation was delayed, therefore maximizing the tuition dollars received. I saw firsthand how students can fail a class by 1/10th of a percentage point and not be granted the right to review their exam. Meanwhile, professors conduct an "item analysis" of the questions and subjectively determine which questions are fair and will count and which ones will not. If there's a need for this practice, then there's a root issue that's not being addressed. Test students on what is taught, and teach students what they'll be tested on. This seems like it would be common sense, but when you have a for-profit institution, the practices in place exist to maximize profit, not educational success. After countless hours, dollars and incredible stress, my mom failed her final quarter by less than a percentage point. She ultimately suffered a stress-induced medical event and is lucky to be alive, although likely permanently disabled. I don't feel the need to deter students further as I believe this school, as well as the Green Bay campus will no longer be accepting new nursing students. It's not hard to imagine why! Please do yourself a favor and stay away from educational systems listed as "for profit," because that's exactly what they're there for - profit over people.

  Do not recommend I was in the nursing program in my last semester and missed my exam average of 80% by 0.25 I tried it appeal got denied spent hours getting recommendations and wrote to anyone that would listen ultimately getting shut down. I now am removed from the program, credits don’t transfer, and all my clinicals expire. I am in 35,000 in debt and wasted 2 years of my life. Please don’t go here it is an awful place

  I am so glad I took the step because they carried me through to graduation. I want to refer everyone because they made it possible for me. Friendly people who care and very responsive.
