ECPI COLLEGE Nursing - Medical Careers Institute ripoff deceptive controlling manipulative bullying Charlotte North Carolina
There are a few factoids that ECPI College sales rep fails to tell perspective nursing students when enrolling.
Things to be aware of:
Very close to fifty percent of all the students in the nursing classes fail the program.
Test grading is different for every student. In essence the instructors pass who they like and fail who they dont like in a multitude of ways.
The instructors do not make information available in the written form so if any single minute of class is missed you could be looking at a complete loss of the moment. Important facts are not written on the board or handed out on paper.
I believe legally breaks are required in classes every so often. Very frequently these are not given.
Testing is different for each class based on the instructor mood. If you upset the instructor say by being late for class your class may get a fill in the blank test instead of a normal exam.
Clinical assignments are botched and thrown together in a disorganized way and instructors are not held to a schedual of any kind. Scheduals chnange at the whim of your nursing instructor. Instead of the normal shedual that is handed out in paper on day one the students are informed that they will simply be there earlier or they will fail.
Reprisals are a common thing so complaints are few and scattered.
The entire building is monitored heavily and evidently which could be a good thing unless it is used to undermine the privacy of others.
Students are allowed to miss a certain amount of hours in each class but since all the instructors log those hours as they see fit the rules are simply redundant.
The instructors intentionally try to create a non friendly atmosphere within the classroom amongst classmates and use this to interfere with normal information sharing such as a test review or missed notes.
Students are resigned to one entrance and exit.
Instructors behave like little children.
To think of all the students who are intentionally failed out of this school is just heart breaking. I am not one of them but just be aware of the ECPI Game and their plans to defraud.

As a consumer, I have to say...

I am relieved that this nursing school only passes 50% of students. These are people that will work in various medical settings and need to know 110% what they are doing. I am guessing that the course is very difficult and not eveyone can handle it or is not cut out for nursing. I wouldn't want to be the patient that got stuck with one of the students that should've failed, but was allowed to graduate.

This report makes it sound like graduating 50% of students in a nursing program is bad. I went to a community college and they were way worse than this. Not everyone that wants to be a nurse will make it through a good nursing program. Reliability and attendance are must traits of a nurse so it makes sense to me that tough standards are necessary. I went through the nursing program at ECPI and i know without the direction and guidance I received from the faculty there i would not have made it as a nurse. I am just finishing my program this term and already have a job lined up...which is exactly what i came to ECPI to accomplish.
