It is very important to note, before making any decisions to attend Keiser University, that before being a school, they are a business. What I mean by that is that money, in my personal experience with Keiser, has seemed to be the motivator behind having gotten me to sign up in the first place. Aside from the pressure my counselor had put on me to begin with Keiser as quickly as possible, (allowing me no time to truly process the full extent of what I was getting into) the issue lied in the lack of transparency my counselor provided me in terms of realistically achieving my academic goals. Keiser will be quick to set you up for failure in that they will swiftly encourage you to uproot your major entirely (and "just choose another career path" like it's nothing) if you even miss one beat (even if that one beat was due largely in part to their error). I would like to encourage any student interested in/attending Keiser (ESPECIALLY FOR ANY NURSING OR MEDICAL PROGRAM/CERTIFICATION/DEGREE) to make sure a counselor runs a background check on you before signing anything in terms of beginning any classes! Anything at all on your background, even from YEARS ago will more than likely cause you to be unable to continue when it comes time for clinical rotations. My counselor (who no longer works at the school by the way) never did that for me (knowing full well it should have been an important step to creating a realistic pathway in achieving my AS). A dean later on down the line tried to downplay this issue with me after I had already been almost 30 credits (and whole lot of financial aid) into classes at Keiser. This dean told me that what I had signed up for with a counselor initially was a general credits degree and that Keiser typically is not required to run a background check on you for just a general credits degree (an AA). Tell me how though, that I still have the original paperwork my counselor “guided” me with which clearly indicates a breakdown of AN ASSOCIATES IN SCIENCE FOR [[[NURSING]]] DEGREE!!! NURSING!!! This means that my counselor should have had enough common sense to say “hey we should run your background check before you could possibly waste any time”. The next excuse was that Keiser’s Pembroke Pines location does not offer nursing classes on campus, so the counselors their would have been unlikely trained to know that a background check should be run before anything when it comes to careers involving nursing. The professors I have had online so far have been excellent! The educators are good… it’s the lack of care from every other angle that has left me extremely unimpressed and ready to transfer to Chamberlain. The nursing core program at Keiser seems excellent and held with high regard, from my understanding, when you become ready to look for employment after making it through… if you can make it, go for it! It’s what I would have wanted initially… but if any of these things I have discussed ring true to you, save yourself the money and frustration and check Chamberlain out. Chamberlain, although a longer program, allows you to choose what hospital you would like to do your core clinical rotations at, whereas Keiser does not. Which would provide helpful to someone in a situation much like myself, in that you could choose a hospital who would accept you (even with a minorly smudged background like mine - because lets face it, things happen when you're younger sometimes and you live and you learn). Although at that point, I would encourage you, like I am doing, to expunge your records if you can and see if that provides you with better luck. If I even save the time, effort, and frustration for one person, then my review has done its job… choose your nursing schools wisely guys! I give this school 3 stars because it would be unfair and rather biased of me to rate with a 1 simply due to my personal experiences. Again good school, just awful guidance.

Amazing school! The Occupational therapy program is amazing. Teachers are really caring and knowledgeable. There's a huge parking lot so u don't have to worry about that. It's expensive but worth it because u don't go there to waist ur time. U can have a profession in 2 years .
