ABSN--MGHIHP is a for-profit school, not really affiliated with MGH
January 27, 2012
This program is a rip off, it's true. I was really disappointed in the program, and it's twice the cost of UMass--$50 grand! NOT WORTH IT. It's a FOR PROFIT school, like any other (eg Phoenix), and other than being founded by MGH in 1977, there is NO AFFILIATION. You'll be lucky to get a clinical rotation there. As second degree students, and from the promises made on the website and orientation meetings, one would ...
Great experiences at MGHIHP
October 24, 2011
I have experienced quite the opposite of the previous reviewers on this site. I have found the professors, administrative staff and clinical instructors to be supportive, helpful, and offer excellent educational experiences. While the program is expensive, it is comparable with other ABSN programs in the area. Furthermore, I have found that the contacts made within the Partners Healthcare system/MGH community have been invaluable. My recommendation for anyone trying to make a choice is to ...
DO NOT RIP YOURSELF OFF BY GOING TO MGH IHP FOR NURSING SCHOOL
December 6, 2010
I am currently an ABSN student and I cannot express how disappointed I am with this program. First off, my class has close to 100 students in it. 100! So good luck getting ANY kind of personal attention. Secondly, nothing is organized. My clinical placements have been far from educational (for community health we SAT IN A LIBRARY for 6 hours every Tuesday- WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY). Because there are so many students, they ...
Go somewhere else!!
November 19, 2009
Go somewhere else. Very few people are happy with this program. Lacks good clinical instructors, are unorganized, and could care less about the students. Feedback is poor, and classes are inadequate for the level at which they should be teaching. Prior review is correct! Don't go here!!
Very Disappointing
December 3, 2007
I'm halfway through the Direct Entry Master's level Nursing program and I'm not sure I want to finish my degree at this school, even though I have a 3.8 GPA. The program in general is very disorganized and not very professionally run. There seems to be no accountability. Efforts to schedule appointments with higher level administrators to discuss the program are ignored (repeatedly, and regardless who makes the request). While the faculty are well-qualified, and ...
