Hello,

I'm looking for any cheap or free cna classes in Brooklyn or Manhattan. I know about BOCES and the Allen School, but they are both too expensive. The Visiting Nurse Service has one, but it's only available during the day and I work full time.

I would be able to attend during the evenings or weekends.

Thank you.

Do you remember how much the Allen School cost? I was looking into them but they wouldn't give me a price over the phone.

I'm presently attending the FOB school in Canarsie Brooklyn. It's a pretty good school. The total for the class is approximately $750.00, however your can pay in installments and you are not kicked out until you are finished. You can finish at your leisure. I also took the CPR course for $50.00 (optional). The same course at the Red Cross is $100.00. I attend every Sunday so I've been there forever. I just started my internship this weekend. For more info go to www.fobschool.com

My brother and cousin attended school at the Flatbush Haitian Center or the Haitian Flatbush Center I always confuse the name. Anyway, they are also located in Brooklyn. You take the 2 train to Newkirk Avenue and it's right across the street, I couldn't attend because evening classes start at 6pm and I leave work at 5:30 in NYC. Anyway, the cost is $600.00 if you pay in installments, if you pay in full it is $500 or $550 (I forgot.) They don't have a website.

PS. The Allen School now costs $1400.00 and I've heard a lot of complaints about them through current and former students. Don't trust any school that won't give you any information up front.

Good luck

Hey,

I graduated from CMSV in 1995 as a communications major. I remember helping to dry many tears from nursing students that failed clinicals. It's a very good nursing school I regret not getting my degree from them.

Good Luck!

The Manhattan Institue also offers CNA classes during the week, evening, and weekends. (www.manhattaninstitute.com) if you e-mail the contact person and ask how much the classes are they will e-mail you back ASAP. The phlebotomy classes are $465 and you pay $60 to start and make payments as your taking classes. With that I assume that the CNA classes are not too expensive.
