    Congrats! I am about to embark on this challenge. Could you message me your email...I want to better understand time commitments.

    Online BSN to DNP programs

    Hello, Is anyone aware of affordable BSN to DNP programs? I am eyeballing Liberty's DNP program, especially since I am former military (tuition is $300/hr). While I would enjoy a Mental Health Practitioner specialization it is $1200/hr. Yik...

    Nurse Incivilities: Does it Start in Academia?

    Upfront, I'll admit I'm jaded. Incivility is never appropriate; however, life is tough. I cut my teeth in nursing in the United States Army, first becoming an LPN/EMT under their tutelage. One benefit of such an approach (besides the incentive t...

    I suspect the program is too new for such review. I believe I was in the second graduating class.

    Online BSN or Higher With Unaccredited ADN

    Yes, I’m married to a physician who loves it here & tolerates my absorption of graduate education. Since I am eyeballing upward mobility eventually, I “might” stick it out at UTA s/p RN to complete their RN-MSN program with an accredited BSN...

    Online BSN or Higher With Unaccredited ADN

    Thank you, quite an informative post. I am attending Educare Envision School of Nursing’s PN to ADN bridge… Preliminary discussion suggests that I shan’t have issues enrolling in UTA’s RN to BSN program subsequently.
