I am a Senior in the BSN program at Chamberlain's Columbus Campus. I will be finished with my…read moreBachelor's of Nursing degree at the end of August 2016. I'm an honor student and a member of Sigma Theta Tau. I will tell you that people aren't kidding when they say nursing school is hard. I've taken courses at Columbus State and Ohio State (like anatomy, organic chemistry, statistics, etc.). Nursing school is much more difficult. With that being said, the professors at Chamberlain are going to do everything in their power to help you understand the content. There are also many services students can utilize. Our campus has one of the (if not THE) most comprehensive Sim labs in the state. Chamberlain also has a great reputation in Columbus and continues relationships with hospitals like Riverside, Grant, OSU, Nationwide Children's, etc. I have had a vast array of clinical experiences. I have scrubbed into bone surgeries and cesarean sections, watched an angiography, helped deliver a baby, assisted in would care, and much more. We have had the opportunity to work in nursing homes, homeless shelters, rehabilitation centers, psychiatric and behavioral health centers, public health, schools, camps, and in hospitals. Also many schools do not offer a critical care course. At Chamberlain it is a part of the curriculum and clinical experience. Some clinicals can be a fair distance. I have not had to commute more than 20 minutes (with the exception of camp weekend), but some of my classmates have had a session or two with an hour commute each week. It happens. It's nursing school, they teach you to deal with chaos. Things I do not love about Chamberlain: The grading scale: 94%+ is an A (4.0) 92-93% is an A- (3.75) 89-91% is a B+ (3.5) and so on.... It's difficult to keep a high GPA. ATIs and HESIs (but again it's nursing school) And the expense. Chamberlain is not cheap. Apply for scholarships. I've received $14,000 in scholarships. Chamberlain cares about whether you pass the NCLEX the first time. They will invest time and effort into that goal. If you are up for a rewarding challenge, check into Chamberlain. (4 stars for cost and grading scale)

This is just for the playground…read more We went on a weekend. You can see the playground from Innis, but have to go around the back of the school to get to it. There are two playsets, and assorted metal climbing contraptions. Some slides, some balance bars. No benches for parents, unsurprisingly. But a nice playground.
