    I may be biased but I have a bad history with this place including being a victim of the well known…read more"RU screw". I could go on with my grievances all day but I'll contain myself. The Newark campus is somewhat sparse with construction constantly going on just like in New Brunswick to beautify the school. Unfortunately it doesn't look like any of that is happening and after being here for a few years it barely looks like anything has changed. It's a headache coming down here in the morning and afternoon so unless you live near campus, which also not very inviting, it's just a hassle coming here, parking is a trap if you chance it parking on the street or you pay for a parking pass which still require $5 a pop after the $30+ subscription. Bursar, admissions, administration and everything else you have to deal with all bring on migraines and while I know this could be said for any University this one is especially so. I know Rutgers is held in high regard but personally my experience has been most unpleasant and coming to Newark for class is convenient but only a lesser of 2-3 evils.

    The Newark campus is nice. With the exception of the Business School, the campus is clustered…read morewithin two/three blocks. The administrative building (Blumenthal) is found on University (between Warren and Raymond). You go here for all your registration and bursar needs. The health center is also found there. Most of the buildings where you take classes are contained in the block created by University, Warren, MLK, and Bleeker. Within that square, it's convenient to go to classes. Plus, in this square block are the Dana Library and the Paul Robeson Student Center. The dorms are between Bleeker and Central. Then there are the buildings between University and Washington - Center got Law and Justice (law school and some criminal justice classes there), the parking Deck, Golden Dome Athletic Center, and other classroom buildings. There is also another Parking Deck on Washington between Raymond and Warren. If you don't have a car, there are many public transportation options. The campus is located close to the Washington Street stop on the light rail, and there are also a number of buses that will bring you close to campus. There is a lot more passive green areas and places to sit outside, than when I went to school here many moons ago. It used to be just concrete and red outdoor tables that were bolted to the ground (not as picturesque as today). I am a fan of the Rutgers-Newark Campus. Plus it's close to the Newark Museum and the Main Newark Public Library, as well as the Haynes & Co. building and other nice spots in Halsey Village.

    I did not have the best experience at this institution. While I enjoyed learning from my professor…read moreand appreciated my classmates my first 4 months there. The school as a whole lacked organization, was overpriced, and failed to provide adequate resources to prepare students for their careers after completing their programs. The school's labs were so small not everyone could participate in. The school also suffered from a significant lack of supplies which hindered the learning process. Our class never received our books that we were promised on paper which led to more unfortunate events. The director, Brian, displayed unprofessional, inconsiderate, and inconsistent behavior throughout my time there. He frequently failed to follow through on commitments, requiring persistent follow-ups from students to ensure their credentials and other matters were handled. Each of my classmates had similar frustrations working with him. Brian often made excuses for delays, interrupted conversations, and avoided accountability. For example, at the start of my CNA program, he provided me with the wrong start date. When I arrived on the date he gave me, I was told the program had actually begun the week later. Despite this error, he took minimal responsibility and avoided providing written confirmations when requested. Additionally, he repeatedly delayed scheduling CPR training, offering excuses and providing unreliable dates. Ultimately, I had to seek outside resources to complete my CPR certification. After completing my CNA class--which was disorganized and poorly structured--I was told I needed to attend an additional two weeks of classes to fulfill 30 required hours for my PCT program. These additional classes turned out to be a waste of time, consisting primarily of repetitive and unnecessary YouTube videos covering topics we had already learned. I later discovered these hours were added simply to justify overcharging students, which was deeply disappointing and disgusting. When it came time for my externship, I was misled into believing that job opportunities would be available through the placement. Instead, I found out the facility was fully staffed, leaving me to secure my own job after completing the program. Furthermore, the school did not provide sufficient preparation for the state exam, leaving me and many classmates feeling unprepared. Months later, I am still waiting for the results of my CNA skills test, along with the majority of my class. The evaluation process itself was unprofessional, with the evaluator distractedly scrolling through her phone and chewing gum during the assessment. Additionally, it took over a week for Brian to sign and release my certificate, which had been sitting on his desk the entire time. His sporadic presence at the school further compounded these frustrations. They are engaging in the unethical practice of purchasing reviews to protect their reputation. Which causes students like me to fall for it which is distasteful. Please save yourself the trouble this school isn't worth your money or time.

    This by far has been a nightmare experience. For starters I…read morebelieve students should've been informed About Parking . Many students have received parking tickets because meters only allow 2 hours at a time and would have to run back and forth from class . School is Very un organized i do not recommend , When I first was interested in classes i was told a set price over phone but when The day comes to enroll There were lots of hidden fees . Secondly We Had to give our background Forms And we would pay a small fee for it to be notarized , Few classes later a student realizes notary was expired months ago and Had us redo all of that over . Bathroom ceiling in women's restroom was broken And wasn't repaired what so ever . Females had to use men's restroom with a class maté supervising the doors outside , what a shame . Elevators were Broken and never replaced for the 5 weeks of course , Even when a student had an accident her course was postponed because lack of mobility for disabled when this school is a medical school . They tried to sell us our books from amazon for double the price . When students proceeded to pay the school to get it they said their shipment hasn't arrived and we were already week two into class . They were printing the chapters fdic's the students . When students who decided to purchase book through amazon received books within two days . Paper work was always somehow missing , hours were always miscounted for and would have you come in to redo those hours because front desk wasn't organized . The practice room for students Was a cheap setup Mannequin arms would be broken Would be so difficult to practice Skills On that . students Didn't have Proper linen The day Of their Skills exam And students were left Wondering what would happen , Until The Teacher Ms. Lin Had to provide Linens and supplies for students to proceed to take exam , Meanwhile Bryan the head boss Was on a trip not answering calls . The front desk lady Was very rude to students when they had certain questions about program due to confusion . Head boss Was not professional either Would come in To school building wearing outside clothes while we would get sent home If scrubs weren't white Or specific color they wanted . Course was rescheduled last minute For a further date twice due to them "having no teacher to teach us " as what was stated by office . School does not Provide Parking permit so prepare to pay for parking 5 weeks straight . We were supposed to do clinicals and only went a hand full times and the rest was signed off , we didn't get hands on experience. Thanks for The teacher for doing her best to educate us and keep us there for the remaining course . I had an overall Bad experience and would take it all back if i could . This school needs to be shut down .

I have 8 certifications from my program and all this is from the encouragement and saying YOU CAN DO IT!! And I DID IT !! I am working with a major Hackensack meridian hospital!! I am grateful to the instructors and the administration for making it a smooth journey to success. Thank you !!! They strive to help there students achieve success and make sure you are prepared enough with your skills for the hands on work. I am so excited as I feel confident knowing more than other people who work with me. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone looking forward a better career.

Ms. Jackie - she is one of my favorite teachers and really helped get my foot in healthcare. She takes the time to explain the lecture and makes sure we understood it. Ms. Mary was great! She assisted me in the enrollment process and gave me valuable information about the programs they offered. Angel is awesome! He helped me with any paperwork and organized my payment plans. I moved to a different state and he made sure to mail me my certificates. I chose the PCT program and learned so much in less than 6 months. The hands on experience was FUN and gave me the experience I needed for a real time job. I finished the program February 2020. In march 2020, I was able to land my first healthcare job with the help of this school and their resume templates. I recommend this school to anyone looking to get their foot in healthcare!
