RN to BSN online

You can always do the Texas Tech RN to BSN..2 semesters 30 hours (staggered courses I do believe) and you done....

This program looks real good. Has anyone on here complete the program? Any more info on it?

I did a search on here and found several people who have done it and were very satisfied... Texas Tech is a very highly regarded school here in Texas so I feel confident to tell you that this program is very strong... I will be applying here myself within the next several weeks for program....

@txspadequeenRN, Texas tech is looking really good right now only problem is i cant find their tuition on their website.Do you have any idea?

It is so difficult to find information on that website...But here ya go now what I dont know is if the online RN -BSN program has the same tuition for all students regardless of residence ..some schools do this as long as you stay with the program course of study...

I took this from the FAQ on the Texas Tech nursing website

"Total cost of the RN to BSN program, tuition and all fees for two semesters is $7,216.00. Visit www.fiscal.ttuhsc.edu/busserv/bursar or call 806-743-1880 for detailed fee information, including out-of-state tuition."

@txspadequeenRN thanks so much

Can anyone give me some details about the UoP RN to BSN program. I am really considering this path and would just like some insight of how the program is. What type of course work, how the grading and tests are run, what is the practical portion... Anyone that has gone through this program that would like to share I appreciate it.

Thanks,

hey erchick-i didnt do u of p, although i looked into it a few years ago as an option. they have a lot of info on their website. basically the classes are very short, like 5-6 ish weeks, and each one (at that time anyway) required a group project and a powerpoint presentation. One lady I worked with who was about finished with it when I was looking at it also stated that it required a lot of community work-which can be great if you have the time. Presentations of different subjects to different types of groups. for me the price was also a major issue, even though they were giving loans so you didn't have to pay upfront. just make sure you look at many options and find the right fit for you!

good luck.

Kaplan VS UoP

I have a co-worker that did her BSN through Kaplan. Anyone have any insight about them? They are a little bit cheaper than UoP but I want to get a general opinion of the two.

Thanks

kaplan-straight off the bat i choked on the $353 per credit price! holy moly! guess ihave been spoiled by u of wyoming at 113 a credit. another thing is whether any program that you would want to go to requires NLN approved bsn program or if CCNE is enough. some programs differ... i also see that they require like 90 credits, and they do not explain their course transfer process, but make you fill out a form so someone can call you. does this mean that they make you retake stuff you already took? what does your friend have to say about the program. but for me, the money would be a major issue, but that's me!

good luck!
