Hi there, I am interested in applying for the Chamberlain ASN/ADN program and wanted to know if there were any in the program currently who had input. I am a non-nurse, but I am a medical transcriptionist so pretty familliar with healthcare and terminology, etc. I am really wanting to know from others who weren't already a nurse who are now in the program what they think about the program. I was a nursing major in the past, so I have a lot of the prereq's (but don't know if they have a 5 year, 10 year, etc limit on the science classes). The whole concept of completing a nursing degree online is really wild to me. I didn't even know the possibility existed until I came to these boards. I don't feel like I will have a problem at all with independent learning, the shadowing under a nurse at the local facility for clinical's seems interesting. I do hate to miss out on the nursing school comraderie amongst the nursing students I experienced when I was a nursing major a long time ago, as you have when you attend a traditional college setting program, and I do think it almost helps to have that as you learn. I am a divorced single mother of two though, and think this might be a great opportunity for me. I would love to know how others think about the program, how they are doing in the program, and any input about it.
