The college is great, they have good concelors, always someone to explain things, tutoring available is great and of course don't be scared to apply into scholarships but with intentions of good grades. I can't wait for my next semester!

Do not, I repeat do not consider this alleged institute of higher learning for their nursing program. What you can expect is a system designed for failure. The school itself has a 14% grad rate. The nursing program graduates less than half of its cohort. Obscure details are tested and errors and inconsistencies abound. Zero professionalism.

Triton college is not a school to get solid Associate's degree unless it is in liberal arts.Their professional programs are anything but, and a real scam if you want to be a professional anything.They hire really bad teachers that are rude, have bad records or are just plain rejects of society. Then you leave graduating questioning why you attended

Attend a bachelor's degree program. You get what you pay for. If you complete the Nursing Program be prepared for them to sit on your records and wait five months to take the State boards. Good luck passing after that much time has lapsed.

Its really depressing how poorly Triton performs. It's not a fun place to go to school. The student body isn't easy, but at least the school could try to be better organized with things like grades, scheduling, and computers.

This school will blatantly finesse you, be it financially or your grades, and leave you to deal with whatever they put you through. This school is trash
Overall 1.9
School has more C-rated teachers and administrators but if you do your research on who to take for each class and have a well-calculated class schedule then you will have an alright time. A lot of the time, however, if you get disrespected by a teacher-- the chairman and dean won't care to help you.

This school is a ghost town. You show up and you leave. People barely make connections. Many teachers seem unorganized and not qualified. Councilors are the worst here. Made me take not needed courses just to make money. Resources such as internships are only good for nursing, other than that they do a terrible job.
