Global Health College, formerly known as Global Health Nurse Training Services (GHNTS) was established in January of 2004 by the envision of a family nurse practitioner, Mariatu Kargbo. Her desire to inculcate her beliefs of the nursing profession began her journey to start a practical nursing program in Alexandria, Virginia. Within six months, the Virginia Board of Nursing approved the institution to operate and begin the admission of students. The institution opened for classes for the practical nursing program in January of 2005 with a total of sixty (60) students. Thus far, GHC has had 120 students graduate from the practical nursing program with a NCLEX pass rate of 92%. January of 2007, GHNTS was granted the rights to operate an Associate Degree of Nursing (ADN) program by the Virginia Board of Nursing. The first ADN class commenced in May of 2007.

- Every college has it's minor set backs, but Global Health is an amazing school. Not only do they have the one highest NCLEX passing rates and have an extremely diverse student body. Whenever I was struggling in a class, I was abled to be tutored for free and the faculty was helpful and supportive every step of the way.

- I would not attend this school. They are not professional, they make last minute changes, give no respect to students and even to their employees. Computers will stop working during a test, they cause so much havoc. And there has been too many problems involving financial aid. Their financial aid is in trouble. Too much shady business, and their student body is very poor.
