Why Did You Choose Bryant & Stratton?

I choose Bryant & Stratton for a few reasons. While looking into colleges I was looking for one that offered a classroom setting, didn't keep me on a long waiting list, and really wanted me to succeed. I ultimately found that at Bryant & Stratton, and that is what influenced my decision to choose Bryant & Stratton.

I bought into an online LPN to RN program about two years ago, and have done nothing with it. It was one of the programs you would do online at your own pace. After two years of trying I was not really getting anywhere. I decided I needed to be in a classroom setting with deadlines in order to finally get something accomplished. Bryant & Stratton offered the traditional classroom setting that I needed.

Some of the other nursing programs I looked into had waiting lists on average of two years. Here at Bryant & Stratton I will be done with my program in 18 months. That alone mad a huge difference to me. I began to think it doesn't make sense to sit on a waiting list for two years, then spend another two years in the program. By the time I am done here at Bryant & Stratton, I would just be coming off the waiting list at another college.

After coming to Bryant and Stratton to tour and speaking with some of the people from the different departments, I got the feeling they really want the students to succeed. I have been to many schools and I have not had that feeling. Many schools only care about how many people they can get into the seats. I felt like that was not their main goal here. They gave me the feeling that once I was accepted into the school they would do whatever it took to help me complete my journey.

Many things went into my decision to choose Bryant & Stratton. I sat down and weighed all my options. Ultimately it came down to me needing to be in a classroom setting verses online classes. I also liked that the program had no waiting list, and the fact that Bryant & Stratton is genuienly interested in me being successful in my area of discipline and not just a financial gain. At this point I think this was the right choice for me.
