Bryant & Stratton College - Wauwatosa 10950 West Potter Road, Wauwatosa, WI 53226

"Would give zero stars if I could. Teachers having a bullying culture, some are racist, unnecessarily hostile towards students, have group chats about students that they don’t like with other teachers (I’ve seen proof), and will do anything in their power to stop you from succeeding. The dean is in on it too, a passive aggressive bully and the teachers act as her minions. It’s like some of the teachers are jealous of students. This place is more of a for profit company than a school."

"Go here if you want unnecessary debt. It’s been few years since graduating for ASD in HUSS, and still haven’t found a stable career with my degree from BSC. The things they teach can be AFFORDABLY learned at another college. The assigned financial aid advisor was very passive aggressive towards me whenever I asked questions regarding my FA. She would even email e-sign documents for my signature without exactly explaining its context and the reasoning for them. It came to the point where I felt afraid to ask this lady about my FA! Housing is also difficult to get because you’d have to pay off any unnecessary fees you owe. There’s no social life on campus neither, so don’t expect too much interaction with others. (Unless you’re on the college’s sports team.) So now I’m stuck with debt and useless college degree and credentials (in which you can’t access an official transcript unless you pay ALL fees.) If I could take back my time I spent at this place, I definitely would."

"I see alot of 1 stars here for review. I'm sorry, but after school I had to study / homework 3-5 hours a day in order to pass. Plus I worked full time the first semester, but by the 5th semester I cut down to just 7 hours a week which is nothing. This was probably one of the hardest things I have ever done and not everyone can do it! Nursing school is not easy and not matter where you go!! My friend went to WCTC had a long wait to get into clincal and there program is also no cake walk. If you don't put in more hours outside of school into studying you will fail. Do not just rely on your teacher to teach you everything you will actually have to do the readings that no one wants to do and do practice questions until you feel like your head will explode. Nothing worth something comes easy! I had very hard but knowledgeable instructors and if you are having trouble with a concept or skill they are great resources to use as well as your textbooks. Nothing is perfect so that is why I gave 4 stars. Don't give up!"

"Of all the reviews I read stating do NOT go here for ADN, I have to advise the same for BSN. Run away! The program is so disorganized and only a small amount of the professors know what is going in. You have to teach yourself almost everything (which for the amount you’re paying in tuition I find downright terrible), which is where I will talk about the ATI testing they do. I went 3 semesters in this program without any type of exposure to this ATI testing to during my 4th semester having 3 ATI final exams that were worth 9% of the grade. One of my classes had around 30 people and only 5 of those 30 people passed the ATI exam. The rest of us lost out on 9% of our grade because we failed the ATI test. That 9% is the difference between passing and failing miserably. A letter grade or two if I must. Don’t dare try to fight the ATI bologna they have set up, because you will be ignored, or you will be told you did not study enough. I emailed the dean of nursing about this ATI testing and so did a few of my colleagues. We were all ignored. I requested to meet with the dean face to face to talk about this, and again I was ignored. The school and their staff will NOT own up to their mistakes, instead it’s always the students fault. One of the three ATI finals I had to take was a major issue due to the fact that we did not get the textbooks for this exam until halfway through the semester, which gave us no time to study DOUBLE the material for this exam. I gave my professor of that class a lot of respect because they really fought for these books. The school couldn’t seem to care less because we were constantly given the run around, yet the other two lecture sections of this course had their books!! We were set up to fail. This school is awful. They rob you and their “life prep” slogan is a scam. You do not get prepared for anything. If you are considering Bryant & Stratton for nursing, run away. Go somewhere else. Just Incase you, the reader are not convinced that this school is all about the money, here is some proof: I left the nursing program after the semester ended on December 18. I got a letter on December 26 stating that I have to pay my student loans back!!! (As if I didn’t already know....I signed the MPN, I know I have to give back what I borrowed). Three days later on December 29, I finally got a letter stating that they noticed I was not coming back. BSC only cares about money, so do not go here. Go somewhere that is credible and well established."

"Do NOT go here for the ADN program! Some instructors don't know how to teach. They can't answer your questions or they read directly from the textbook for lecture. Now I know you really have to study and read your materials to become a nurse, but lectures are supposed to help students. Some instructors seem to have forgotten that. It is a fast paced program. I liked that it was under two years, but you really have to commit. I ended up having to cut back my hours at work to make time for studying and homework. The school makes you do an authentic assignment in each course. It is supposed to help you advance your studies. HAH! 99% of the assignments were a complete waste of time. The program also loves busy work. Pointless homework that doesn't help the students out. The Dean of Nursing accused the graduating class of cheating in front of guest speakers three days before the end of the semester. They do not care about your work schedule. You do not have a choice for where your clinical is. They will say they try to place you at a clinical site near your home. I ended up over one hour away from my site two semesters in a row. Class until 2100 and 0630 clinical an hour away the next morning. Fun, hey? They do not own up to their mistakes or miscommunication. The student is always wrong in their eyes."
