Pros

Tinley Park campus is easy to get to!

Cons

The students being accepted into the nursing school barely have command of the English language, despite English being their 1st language. Most of the students are sub-par with more than 50% of the students admitted to the program having failed a nursing program at a better school. The nursing program at Chamberlain is an accelerated nursing program. The students blame the faculty when they are unsuccessful at learning a subject in 8 weeks that other schools teach in 16 weeks, while working one or more jobs, and raising a family - with below average intellect. The NCLEX pass rate is rapidly declining and campus management has no clue how to make improvements.

Pros

I've spent many years at Chamberlain, and one of the main reasons is the opportunity for growth. If you're looking for a career rather than just a job, there are clear advancement opportunities at both the enrollment representative and leadership levels. The culture is performance-driven but also coaching-focused, with strong investment in training and development. Chamberlain has strong brand recognition, which makes conversations with prospective students meaningful and rewarding.

Cons

The pace can be demanding during peak enrollment periods, and success requires adaptability as priorities and processes evolve.

Pros

There are lots of good people working in the campuses and working to help students succeed is very fulfilling.

Cons

The home office (Covista) IT takes forever and a day to do anything. There seems to be a focus on reducing costs to the point that the experience feels cheap.
