Fortis College in Norfolk

"I’m in the Dental Assistant program, it’s a really great program! Ms. Ashli definitely pushes you to be the best student and assistant you can be. I love the instructors, and the friends I have made along the way."

"I had a good time here at fortis college for the (Dental Assisting) program. If you attend here at fortis, you will be in great hands with Ms.Ashli, Mrs.Perot, and Ms.B (my current teachers and they are all very nice). They do have food trucks to come to the school every once in a while and I did enjoy them as well with the school doing different events. Although one downside I would say is I feel like they do treat the nursing students better than other programs and they're a little slow with financial aid. Hopefully one day they can add a Dental Hygiene program like they have at the fortis college in Maryland, i'd be welcomed to come back for that program."

"Please don’t choose this school, find another way. I’ve never been so stressed out about a career change in my life. Please make a better choice"

"If you are looking to start Nursing School, for LPN and you want your moneys worth, Teachers that actually care and want their students to succeed, DO NOT COME TO THIS SCHOOL!!!! The teachers are horrible just like the staff, they are just here for a check. You have to GIVE RESPECT TO GET IT!! and these teachers will talk to you like your less than and tell you to your face that you're not good enough to be a nurse. WORD OF MOUTH IS VERY POWERFUL!!, so I would not recommend this school to anyone, and I will not be returning here for RN."

"Here at Fortis, I've had nothing BUT a great experience! I attended the Dental Assisting program and I absolutely loved it. I was able to attain lots of hands on experience which is extremely beneficial in the real world. The staff here is outstanding and very prompt when handling all circumstances from all aspects. The instructors are helpful and super supportive when managing staying on top of assignments, grading, and uplifting their students if necessary. Fortis's curriculum is great because it really sets you up for what's really going on in the medical field. Dental assisting is something I've always wanted to do, and Fortis just enhanced my mindset and I'm currently applying for dental school to become a PEDIATIC DENTIST. During my very first encounter with the admissions team, I felt as though this was the right place to begin a fun career, they are wonderful when helping new students with enrollment and making sure we choose what's best for us. It was hard for me to choose a school coming straight out of high school NOT wanting to go to a 4 year college and watching others prevail quickly, however I am extremely satisfied and now a pediatric dental assistant. Moving on with medicine an dentistry EAGERLY. P.S. (Ashli Anderson is a wonderful radiology instructor. I know so much regarding radiology and how to read x-rays. She's such an outstanding instructor, the BEST). I love Fortis, I pray everyone has this same feeling. (1 year program. MUST take the Infection Control and Radiation Health and Safety DANB's)"
