  1. Starting WGU RN-BSN

    This was calculated by Loyola when they reviewed my courses from WGU, or you can take your grades, not the final grade, the actual grades themselves, and calculate it. I wasn't notified via email about this thread, sorry it took so long to answer! ...
  2. WGU online programs

    Hi Joanie, I didn't take it in an insulting way, I should apologize if my post made it seem that way Competency based just means that you don't receive number grades per se, you still receive a B or C or even an A on your assignments!! (hard to get ...
  3. WGU online programs

    It's an accredited program, why would there be any problem having it recognized? Non-traditional? Why, because it's online? Duke University, UIC (Chicago) Loyola, etc.....some of the greatest schools in the country have online programs, how is thi...
  4. Starting WGU RN-BSN

    Bobby, The classes aren't any different from brick and mortar but they're intense, you're going to actually learn the content or you won't pass. I was really surprised at how much information they expected me to digest. You're going to write a LOT ...
  5. WGU online programs

    Hi chris2732, I'm not sure about dual enrollment, the way they structure their didactic, I don't see why they wouldn't allow you to take both tracks but what I'm finding in graduate school is that they limit you for a reason: it's hard! I switched ...
  6. I really really need some help with this, PLEASE?

    I am MORE than happy to help, I'm working on your email :) Kimberlee
  7. Has anyone heard of Western Governor's University?

    I'm sure I speak for Emily when I say we hope you get in too!!
  8. Has anyone heard of Western Governor's University?

    Darleneisdarlene, I completed my WGU program in July of this year. Hardest thing I've ever done although I did the whole program in 10 months (NOT recommended!) but you can do it in an accelerated fashion if you need to. I started the graduate prog...
  9. Pre-filled saline syringes and checking central line blood return

    I am a clinical specialist with one of the major manufacturers of the Pre-Filled Saline Syringes. These PF syringes are NOT sterile, only "clean". However, once you remove them from the wrapper, they are no longer clean, you just touched them with ...
  10. Has anyone heard of Western Governor's University?

    It is singularly the hardest thing I have ever done because the course content (Competency Based Program remember) makes sure you have a firm grasp of each subject. If WGU says you need 15-20 hours a week for course work, plan on spending 30. Your ...
  11. Starting WGU RN-BSN

    The assessments can only be taken once you have completed your Course of Study for each class. Don't let the wording confuse you, you still have to complete several required tasks and syllabus' for each class, you just don't have to obtain useless k...
  12. Has anyone heard of Western Governor's University?

    What most of these posts miss is that if you are already an RN, you have NO clinical requirements in the RN-BSN program, regardless of where you go! As a WGU student, I've already proven that my program is exactly the same as that of UNC......there ...
  13. 2nd thoughts about WGU

    I work with "degree snobs" and as I posted to another, and they aren't getting anything different that you are from WGU. Who cares where it comes from as long as it fits your lifestyle and you are obtaining an accredited degree? I LOVE WGU, can't s...
  14. WGU online programs

    WGU does not offer Clinical Nurse Specialist Degrees so you don't have clinical and/or preceptorships. You have a Capstone Project (thesis, scholarly project, etc...) that you have to complete which is the same requirement for any MSN in Leadership,...
  15. Starting WGU RN-BSN

    I love WGU so much I moved over to the RN-MSN program. LOVE my mentor, love the school! Any online program is up to YOU what you get out of it. It's meant for the mature student that doesn't need the structure and I'm glad I chose WGU over all of ...
