Beckfield College Reviews of Associates in Nursing

"I personally feel Beckfield is a good college ! Since I’ve attended I’ve actually felt as if the teachers & staff actually care about the students and actually want to see you succeed. I haven’t run into any issues & in the event I had any questions or concerns I am always able to get them answered quickly. I would definitely recommend."

"The best people in the ADN nursing program are Nancy Ritzenthaler, Nick Thompson, & Taitum Godfrey. Nick is such a good instructor. Nancy is so sweet. And Taitum is the best teacher that program has to offer along with Nick. Taitum is the sweetest woman and is 100% involved and active with her student’s success."

"If you're looking for a college that cares for their students and has great resources for help when you need it, Beckfield College is not the one for you! They are more worried about money than anything else. The admission people are very unpleasant. Teachers do not help you and they don't care about students like they should. We have an email system for no reason because none of the teachers or administrators answer their emails. For the one that said, "The negative comments are from the ones who didn't try and didn't follow policies." is probably someone who works there. This college is a nightmare!! I have never seen worse people to run a school and how unprofessional they are ever in my life! Might save someone from wasting their time when they read this, i hope."

"Good education, overall program, and wonderful Instructors. All the negative comments are because the student themselves who donts study or skip classes. If you work hard and follow regulation, you do just great and many people and instructor really give themselves to help student. Overall, it amazing, small nursing program and they will help you no matter what!! :)"

"Im currently one week away from completing my second quarter at Beckfield College. Straight As, and love all of my classes. I find it hard to understand how other students do not succeed here. Staff is extremely helpful, and all nursing classes even math are targeted towards the nurses education. Which I personally love. Prior to starting, it is made quite clear that nursing is not for everyone, and that the program has high expectations with attendance and keeping a certain GPA is a must to pass classes. It is also explained that studying is a must, and that the program is hard. Yet, still others I hear complain about the school are those that do not show up to class, talk during lectures, and do not attend tutoring when they are borderline passing if passing at all. I saw that someone else who reviewed the school complained about hidden fees, I dont know about them but I was warned prior to starting that the amount they quote for the program is a rough estimate, and is likely to change. Which makes sense pending books, uniforms, monthly payments etc. As far as teaching staff Ive liked all of them and have learned a tremendous amount of knowledge. Sometimes I can see the frustration one may get with teaching styles, but that can happen anywhere. Last quarter our lab teacher was completely lost as to how to properly teach and was fired after complaints. Teachers that stepped in for him were awesome! I love that you start the program with the same people u end it with, and everyone is very approachable."

"Please do your research before trusting Beckfield College! The college is not regionally accredited. The tuition is extremely high, and the failure rate is through the roof. Do not trust their sales antics. Please learn from my experience at Beckfield College."

"I am in my second quarter in Beckfield's Nursing program and I am very pleased with my experience so far. Everyone at Beckfield is so helpful and make it very clear that they want you to succeed. When going into the nursing program, it is explained thoroughly that this educational path is not for the faint of heart. It is meant to be hard. So far, every instructor I've had has been wonderful. I highly reccommend Beckfield"s nursing program!"

"This is by far the worse college I have ever gone too. You teacher your self, pay a s*** ton of money and are treated like a dumb ass every time you ask a question. They are also very unfair to their students. I differently wouldn't even send my dead dog here. I spent several months at this school and was a very hard loyal student. My nursing instructor failed me by less then a half of a point but found a way to add points so others could pass. When I went to talk to the dean she made it a point to tell me I was a lier and needed to pay hundreds of dollars to take a test to be allowed back into there program and that I needed to keep my mouth shut. When just last quarter they allowed students who failed a class to continue with other classes. I have seen this school screw and hurt so many people. They have only one teacher that teaches every nursing class. If you wanna call it teaching. They are way over priced. Thomas Moore is way cheaper. I have seen them tack on money to peoples fee's and require them to pay them cash before they would let them graduate. Mind you they tell these people that at the very end of there last quarter. If you ever want to become something and get your degree, I recommend never walking into this place. All they are is fake sales people."

"This college is by far the worst college. They gave me false information with financial aid. I owe 5500 out of pocket just for 3 months (1 quarter)! That's outrageous. They told me it would be half that. I sure hope people read the reviews before falling in to their trap."
