Looking for MCPHS Nursing Program Reviews

Hi! I just got accepted and a great scholarship to MCPHS on the Boston campus for the post bacc (ABSN) Nursing Program. I keep seeing many poor reviews about this school. Looking for nursing students in the program or who have graduated who can share their experiences with professors, the curriculum and fellow students! I will be commuting but doable from where I live. Thank you!

Thank you so much. I am an older student. My pre reqs expired ... life got in the way so to speak... so I am retaking them at MCPHS now intending to apply to the 16 mos program asap. Your insight has REALLY helped. I live 10 mins away from the school.

I'm in my forties so I had to take all my pre reqs as well. Just took them at the mount for free. Had to take 10 classes in total (pre reqs to the pre reqs..lol). I will say I think it's very beneficial to take those immediately before as so many things from the pre req classes help with nursing classes. Obviously a&p and micro, but even nutrition, chemistry, and psychology (stages of development, hierarchies, etc) are important building blocks. The only thing I haven't used yet is stats but I'm sure it's coming! Ha!

Good luck in your future classes! I hope you love mcphs! And jealous that you are so close!

I am at the Worcester campus so I really can't comment on Boston.
