Anyone have any experience with College America?

Either as a student or as faculty? Are they legit and respectable?

I found it interesting that they don't give any tuition info on their website.

They also claim they can give an ADN in 20 months, an RN-BSN in 20 months, and an MSN in 15 months. That's zero to master's in under 5 years, which makes me a bit skeptical.
I have no knowledge of them but I say: trust your gut!

Comment:
A quick search shows that it's a for-profit chain school. It doesn't give any information about how much it costs because typically, for-profit colleges only exist to convince people to get as much money in Pell Grants and government loans as possible, and sign it all over to them. Translation: it will cost you a lifetime of debt, an arm, leg and a kidney.

Comment:
How much the school costs isn't really of importance to me (other than I dislike that they don't disclose tuition costs on their website). I'm wondering more about whether it's a legitimate, respected college that offers legitimate degrees.

Comment:
Legitimacy is somewhat subjective. Are for-profit schools ever as respected as state schools or private not-for-profits? IMO, no.
