This school is cheap for a reason, the counselors are no help and will lie to you to get you enrolled, before I entered nursing I was told I only had to take a low math and lots of people get in and no mention of the TEAS. The professors for pre nursing give you no study guides or any help at all. Don't waste your time and money.
