Western Career College is a very expensive option to becoming a Registered Nurse from an LVN. Up to 1/3 of the class is "held" back due to poor teaching, unorganization of the program and other reasons. It seems to operate like a business and not an istitution of higher learning.

Western career college is very expensive and poor teaching level. they don't help you in finding a job even. I would not recommend to join this college. It is a college for making money not for making a career.
