I interviewed with Ariz**a college of nursing when it 1st opened in UT and they said they just didn't want me to go to Joyce, then I mentioned this when I spoke to G***yn and they TOLD ME "don't go to Joyce" which was so weird, THEN the advisor laughed about how the employees at their college and others write negative reviews about Joyce and thought it was funny even though It is not true, I WAS SHOCKED. I called Joyce to tell them because that was so weird, and that's just not cool. I I called I started talking to an advisor and it made me give time a 2nd try. Originally I worked with a guy named Aaron he was nice and very informative and this time I worked with a girl named Britney. I vibed alot more with her and you could tell she loved her job. I will be graduating in dec and my experience has been amazing I am so glad I listened to my gut and co workers about Joyce. Honestly, if you are a decent student who just wants to get in school, get out and start working as an RN having a good quality degree, and just want to have support along the way, even when you're done.... Joyce is it, at-least go in and interview and see for your self. I don't normally write reviews but I wanted to share my experience and hopefully it helps others look past the false reviews.

AVOID THIS SCHOOL AT ALL COSTS!!!!…read more The only reason I am giving one star is the professors. Majority of the professors are amazing and really do want you to succeed. However, I would be giving 0 stars if I could. The bad most definitely outweighs the good. This is one of the most if not the most expensive school in Utah, and they run more like a business than a school. They could not care less about their students. They are unprofessional, dishonest, and lack a basic respect for their students. It has gotten worse and worse every semester. Financial aid is terrible, they don't reach out to you until it is past due and then act like it's your fault when in reality, we had no idea until they messaged us. Then they will call and email you religiously (even while you are in class) until you get them their money. On top of this, they only work with 2 student loan lenders. These lenders are also terrible - rarely approves an application. Moving on, despite the large cost to attend here, none of your money goes to your education. You have to constantly pretend to do skills and reuse equipment, which half the time doesn't even work how it is supposed to because it has been used so much. Next, administration 100% has favorites and doesn't even try to hide it. Certain people get excused and are the exception to the rule while others don't even get a second chance. Some students can be late to our biggest testing day of 9th semester (the semester just before graduation) and it just slides by while others are in the hospital for an emergency and are denied to zoom call into class. In the academic catalog it states that if you are missing class for a medical reason, getting a doctor's note will excuse it, so I got a doctor's note one time and the dean tried to pry into my personal protected private health information, and broke HIPAA and FERPA by asking. Then when I mentioned that to her, she responded with I understand but it would help me make my decision of excusing it or not. Lastly, don't even get me started on the mess of graduation. First off, they said that we would get to vote on who we wanted as our student speaker for graduation. When we voted and had a clear winner, someone complained that it wasn't fair because she wanted to speak also. So like the favoritism there is, they send out another vote. This vote revealed the same winner. They continued to wrack havoc in that students life for being voted. They made her cry and treated her like she was a bad person all because someone was mad that they did not get voted for. She had to verbally stand up to the administration advocating for herself. Next, it took them until about halfway through our final semester to get us information about graduation because they hadn't booked a venue. Come to find out just the week before graduation that this venue has limited seating and we have to get tickets for those we want to come. Now if that isn't frustrating enough, we only get 8 tickets per person. This would be a different scenario if we had known this from the beginning, however we were never told that we are only allowed 8 people and all of us have invited many friends and family. Now because of this we had to go to all of those loved ones that we had invited and pick and choose who we want to give the tickets to. This is something that they knew when they booked the place. No venue withholds information like that upon booking. They simply withheld the information from us students as I'm sure they knew it would make us upset. I am positive this is because this was the cheapest option for a venue. We don't even have a stage. It is a black box theater which has a floor and lifted seating. You're telling me that the 2 million they made from my cohort couldn't cover a bigger graduation venue? I call bullshit. Despite all of the money we are all paying this school, we have nothing to show for it. We are getting treated like scum, there is no respect, no fairness, no professionalism, no empathy, and no trust. This school is not a school that cares about you and wants you to succeed. This is a business that cares about their paycheck. Think twice before coming here, you really do not get as good of an experience as you should for the investment that it is.
