Verve College,

216 W Jackson Blvd STE 900, Chicago, IL 60606, United States

"I recently had the pleasure of attending Verve and I am thrilled to share my positive experience. Initially, I was unsure about enrolling due to some reviews I had read, but I am extremely glad that I decided to give it a chance. Verve College has proven itself to be an exceptional educational institution. My time at Verve was taking the Anatomy and Physiology course. Mr. Jiju, my instructor, deserves special recognition for his outstanding teaching abilities. His extensive knowledge of the subject matter and his ability to effectively explain complex concepts truly set him apart. However, the excellence of Verve extends beyond the classroom. The office staff, made a lasting impression on me. Their professionalism, helpfulness, and welcoming demeanor created a positive atmosphere throughout my time there. I highly recommend Verve!!!!!"

"My time at Verve was extremely challenging throughout the entire program. Learning during Covid did make things a lot harder, but the school found ways to make it work. My advice, get a good study partner to cry and vent with lol, read your syllabus throughly and you MUST dedicate time to this program as if it’s your everyday job. After the exit exam, it’s still not over, you still have VATI so stay on point. Thank God for Prof Reni George, Prof Carol Taylor, Prof Molly and Nurse TJ. You all aren’t just educators, but you all know how to actually teach your students, that’s not an easy accomplishment. Thank you all for the numerous hours you put in teaching and tutoring students. NCLEX passed on the first attempt :-)"

"I have a Bachelor's degree, mostly completed Loyola's paralegal program here in Chicago, (no less than "B" work) and found this "school" to be first a business with an exceptionally low graduation rate (I'd estimate less than 20%) and scant resources to help you succeed - no syllabus, tutoring, etc. The format, approx. 3.5 hours of lecture a class (about 14 altogether a week) in addition to accelerated completion of an anatomy and physiology text, most test material taken from lecture, and as mentioned no syllabus, etc. is a recipe for failure. The two students of about twelve in my group that did well had been in City College's nursing program and were subsequently familiar with the material. A former co-worker (that told me about the drop-out rate and that she couldn't recommend the program though she was enrolled at the time) imformed me she'd essentially "self-taught" herself the material. I was advised after opting out that I was "welcome to return" (and of course pay again) - I almost wonder if that was in fact the point. This institution will however exert a lot of effort toward ruining your credit to recoup costs if you exit prior to completion. This place is so starkly different from real college that I was shell - shocked. I honestly wonder about the origin of the glowing reviews - God help you if you attempt this one. Ralei Evans"

"I recently graduated from Verve College and I believe the school isn’t that bad. Management is horrible and so is the office staff, but at the end of the day - what matters is - they are accredited, their NCLEX pass rates are superb and we are there to become nurses. I am thankful enough that I have gained the knowledge I need to be a successful nurse... anybody that’s on here writing bad reviews either 1 ... lurking on the wrong information, or aren’t smart enough to dispel their own ignorance. We have google at our fingertips - go look up the National pass rates and accreditation and make an informed decision about the school based off that information, not someone else’s google review because everyone have different experiences."

"I've attended PCCTI since July 19,2017, honesty in my opinion this school is horrible. It's very unprofessional.They do not give clear and detailed information about the classes.I feel as they only care about money. There's a revolving door with the office employees who aren't trained well enough and always give wrong information. Case in point I made a 300 payment in cash and I noticed that my balance had only went done 100.00. When questioned about it the financial aid office advised that they would pull my receipt of payment needless to say they couldn't Fine the receipt so they brought me a receipt saying I paid only 100.00 without my signature indicating my payment. I had my original receipt showed it to them where it stated that I made a 300.00 payment verses 100.00 with my signature on it."
