   hereshoping replied to mightymitern's topic in Western Governors

   I hate to be a downer, but in the WGU BSN online "community", there is a statement at the top of the page that specifically states that nursing students must maintain employment in the nursing field/that requires nursing knowledge throughout the dura...

   Hi - I'm in my final quarter - right now it's wine colored Cherokee scrubs (I don't have the exact style number with me); they will give you that information at orientation. Shoes were not specific; just black or white, I believe. You will also have ...

   Breathe! I just completed year 1 with a teenager and a pre-teen! If you have a concern, ask the faculty - they are there to help you succeed! I am far more confident going into year 2, now that I know the faculty is so invested in our success. As fo...

   Ccchristine5, if you're asking me, my cumulative GPA was 3.76; however, BC does not use GPA as a deciding factor. Unless it is changing this year, your TEAS score is the deciding factor. If there is a tie, then they start looking at GPA.

   I'm just going to chime in and say, the ATI study guide was VERY valuable to me, and I wouldn't have gotten in without it (at least for fall). I'm just about finished first quarter at BC, and am loving the program. I scored a 92.7 on my TEAS, and f...

   Thanks for the updates, Jeremy! I felt the same way - in a hurry to sign squares/get squares signed, and not really getting a chance to "meet" people. Oh well, you're right...we'll all know each other well by the time this is over! Lisa mentioned th...

   For those starting in winter, lessons learned already!!! I went to get started on the modules, and realized I completely missed one of the required textbooks on our list! LOL! I consider myself pretty attentive to detail, but I suppose when there's ...

    Hi Margritamix! We had an orientation in June, where we were told we would receive the first couple of modules before school started. We received an email recently with the first 2 modules for the class. They included recommended reading and assig...

    Hey guys...it's been pretty quiet here lately! Just a heads up, in case you don't have your scrubs yet: I just stopped in at Life Uniforms (happened to be in the area, so thought I'd drop in and see what they had). Apparently they had some sort o...

    I'm pretty sure we have to follow the regular BC guidelines. Unless you are on fin. aid/loans; then call the fin. aid office and request a defer; that will keep you registered until the funds come in. I'd call and make sure though....here's what th...

    Actually, I believe this is just the book (correct me if I'm wrong!!!) Videos are separate on Amazon, though if you purchase as a package from the publisher's website, you can get a bit of a better price, plus they are offering free shipping. It's ...
