As a Dental Hygiene student preparing to graduate, Evelyn was incredibly supportive throughout the job search process. She consistently checked in, provided valuable resources, connected me with potential employers, and was always available to answer questions and offer guidance.

Her encouragement, professionalism, and genuine care made a stressful transition into the workforce so much easier. I am very grateful for everything Evelyn and the Career Services department did for me and would highly recommend them to any student preparing to enter their career. Thank you for all your support!

After getting a couple certificates and degrees at multiple colleges due to Military moves I can…read morehonestly say this is the most inviting school I've ever been to. Professional and awesome staff. Special recognition to Mr. E and Mr. Liu for their extreme IT knowledge (Personally I've had both as instructors for most of my program). The students are the ones that make it sketchy and weird when they act out. Lately, all I worry about is graduating because I am really going to miss this campus. The Anaheim campus has the best school with a convenient entrance and exit, free parking, Platt college special free coffee, hot chocolate, cappuccino, and continuous events to keep us engaged with one another. Including the honor society. Oh, I almost forgot a food truck that is conveniently there daily with prices that everyone can afford. Best of all they respect everyone. Our Military is highly respected and loved. The dean, career services, student services, the librarian, and the rest of the staff work very hard to accommodate your needs. The academic dean is very helpful and professional alongside with the school director they care about your success. -Guzman, Irene USMC

Do not go here, from my experience these people do not care about the students they only care about money. The DMS program i was in was terrible, they have the same one teacher teaching pretty much all of the classes and she was totally incompetent. She would fall asleep during class, get distracted throughout the lessons, and then yell at us because we were behind. If you want to go here be prepared to teach yourself everything. My entire cohort and other past students that i've talked to feel completely scammed by this school and when we graduated they basically told us that our degree was from Platt now so if we bad mouthed them we would only be harming ourselves. And bonus- they will bombard you with calls after you graduate so have fun with that (it will feel like harassment, personally speaking). If you were looking for a sign not to go here, this is it. This is a for profit school for a reason, they only care about their profits. I am embarrassed to put this school down on my resume, I wasted years on a pretty much useless degree that does not mean anything in the real world. From the administration to the teachers, this school sucks, point blank. Take their yelp rating seriously and go to community college or literally anywhere else. I wish did!

Out of all the instructors I have had, the one who has been the most helpful and supportive to me has been Miss G, our OB instructor. Miss G has been very hands-on and has always taken the time to answer my questions and help us whenever she could. She has prepared us well for going out into clinicals, and I know that if I ever need help or have a question, she is only an email away and is always quick to respond. I honestly would have loved for Miss G to be the one handing me my diploma because she has been more than just an instructor to me she has been a mentor. She is truly one of the best instructors I have had throughout this program. Miss Rich, the program director and also our physics instructor, is also a good teacher. I can honestly say that her teaching skills are very good, and she knows the material well. The only challenge is that she is extremely busy and has a lot on her plate, so sometimes emails may not get answered or may receive a response much later. Overall, I don't think the program itself is as bad as some people have made it seem. It is definitely fast-paced and can be overwhelming at times, but I think a lot depends on your experience with the instructors and the support you receive. If I were to rate the school, the main reason I would give it 4 stars is because of Miss G. She has genuinely made a difference in my experience in this program. Her patience, hands-on teaching, encouragement, and willingness to help have made me feel more prepared and confident going into clinicals. I am truly grateful for everything she has taught us and for the support she has given me throughout this journey.

I am an Alumn from BSNRS cohort 7 but a majority of the experience of my time at Stanbridge was in…read moreBSNLA cohort 6. I finished the BSN program in July of 2025. I received my ATT (approval to test) within one week from my last day. I had the option to test immediately but I had applied to test with accommodations so with limited centers for accommodations I tested 1 month out in August and passed the first time. I worked closely with our Careers Center and the director Dr. Willinger to create an amazing resume right after receiving my license, began applying to jobs immediately and received an invitation to interview within one week for DaVita. Two weeks later I received an invitation to interview for an ER position close to home which was my first choice to build a strong foundation as a new nurse. I know there are a lot of negative comments about this school on here. I have heard and watched a lot of sad and crazy experiences that my friends and other peers endure with staff and faculty throughout my 3.5 years there. I have experienced questionable professors and staff who are obviously there for the paycheck. On the other end, I have met 2x as many INCREDIBLE staff and faculty throughout my time at Stanbridge. People need to understand that this is still a relatively new program and it's still working through a lot of adjustments both within the programs itself, how they handle students, and how they handle staff. But with being new comes an advantage to incoming students because with the help of the right people and resources, there is flexibility and grace that comes with a class or a term that possibly end in a fluke (I.e. bad professors, missing classes due to extreme circumstances, etc.). I understand this is not everyone's experience, but I HAVE seen multiple times where the school does work with students to properly evaluate their knowledge of a subject a second time if there is overwhelming evidence showing it was not properly done the first time. It also is dependent on how an issue is communicated as well. Any nursing program out there is hard and rigorous. Stanbridge is not unique to this. I can confidently say that I went in to the NCLEX feeling so prepared because of how this school preps you. If you follow testing strategies and work closely with the coaches at the end of the program YOU. WILL. PASS. From Term 1 Stanbridge works with students not just on building testing stamina but building testing stamina while sleep deprived. It's not officially an actual thing. They always told us to be well rested and to eat before but, the reality of any nursing program is adequate sleep is simply not possible. You just have to get through each term and pass. Keep moving even if you have a set back, do your best to not stop. I have no idea how many times I thought to myself that I will more than likely not remember anything after the program and I questioned if I really actually learned anything. I have been an ER nurse for almost 7 months now. Every moment of feeling competent, confident, and proud to be a nurse I owe to Stanbridge. While most of my peers in my new grad program have forgotten a lot of basics and high priorities, I am one of the few who still remembers and I am so thankful. I had zero medical background coming into the program. My science gpa at a 3.5 was not competitive enough for CCs, UCs, or CSUs to see me as a priority candidate for their RN program. Stanbridge was the first school to take a chance on me and invest in me. Before Stanbridge I was never the student who was picked for scholarships, awards, or special internships. The last 2 years at Stanbridge I received scholarships every term, was selected for Student Hospital Fellowship, received the Presidential Service Award, and ended the program with the Thomas Fuentes Service Award. This was all because ONE staff member encouraged me to apply each time an opportunity was sent out. The Stanbridge experience is truly what YOU choose to make it. I have met some amazing people with incredible hearts at this school. I loved that I don't need to hike or walk a mile to get to class. I loved that I only needed to be on the ground once or twice a week. Nursing school was THE hardest thing I have ever done. I gave up my entire life for 3 years just to eat, live, breathe, and sleep nursing. You can ensure your success in this program if you want this more than anything else. There will be times where you have to pick school over your family and it sucks. But being on the other side now, it is SO worth it and now I have the rest of my life. My husband is currently in the program now and is in term 4 at the OC campus. He hasn't been in school full time in over 10 years and he is doing amazing. I'm proud to be a nurse and I'm proud to be a Stanbridge Alum. The cost for tuition is pretty steep. If you have a good tribe behind you and can afford to not work during the program, I highly recommend it!

I just knew she was an overgrown mean girl. I watched her disrespect and humiliate students for asking QUESTIONS. She docked my grade and failed me a whole term by 1 point for "phone usage" I glanced at my phone in the middle of a medical emergency for my type 1 diabetic child and provided phone records. They did not care. She interrupted and made discouraging comments during practicals and failed more than half the class but passed a student and told her she could tell she tried so she was choosing to pass her. Major favoritism. She made discriminatory comments about lesbians during an extra credit zoom. She made ignorant comments about HIV and getting tested for HIV. Nasty nasty energy. Also remember you can not transfer these credits to a real school. Do it the right way. Go to an actual college, get on the waitlist and save yourself thousands and thoussssands of dollars and get the best education.
