Is anyone out there enrolled in this BSN online program? Please share your experiences...starting to shop around for the shortest/cheapest avenue to a BSN.

I was considering but loss interest due to their 3.0 GPA scale.

Also looking at Grand Canyon.

May be a little too late for you now, but 353 is just an orientation class that you can honestly have done in a couple hours. 354 you have a paper and discussion posting due weekly. I took 353, 354, and college algebra together. I think I have heard that Nurs 327 is a heavier course load, but I'm not sure. I haven't taken it yet. I'd be curious how it goes for you if you decided to take it. I'm going to be dropping down to one class a semester after this current semester.

I don't know if you ended up adding it but I wouldn't if you are working!! If you don't have work and little kids then it's doable. 327 is pretty busy.

Specializes in L&D.

So I found you actually can't take 353/354 with any other nursing classes. They must be taken alone. I have finished my first term and am almost done with the second term, which included 421, and chem! Chem has been very hard. The professor is great, and gives great video lectures,but the information is a LOT. If I pass Chem, I move on to the second half of Chemistry. Not really looking forward to it.

Has anyone taken 327 with 406? Is this doable?

I took them one at a time, and if you are organized and motivated you could take them together I suppose but it is a good amount of work. A quiz each week in both, each has 3 discussion and responses.406 has a final project where you critique an article and you create a power point of another with some additional online work. 327 has a 3 part project with 2 weeks in between each section that deals with creating a community project of some sort with the last part being a power point presentation. I know I would never be able to do it, but good luck.

I just started UL's online RN to BSN program a few weeks ago and I had all of their prereqs done except English Lit. If I take UL's 7 week online English lit class it will be crazy expensive. Did anyone who is/was in the program take English Lit through another cheaper source that wasn't too difficult?

Update: I have returned and I have since completed my RN to BSN degree at ULL. I think the online program at ULL is good. They go out of their way to work with you and make you understand assignments and material. There are quizzes, papers, discussion boards, occasional poster on power point, end of semester project, capstone project in the last class (shortened version). It is challenging but very doable with a busy lifestyle. Not getting behind or waiting to the last minute to do assignment while be to your advantage. Good luck all and GO Ragun Cajuns!

You are right Chemistry on line is hard, she gives a bid curve on the final. I had the practice test.

@tippytoes did you take the online English Lit class? If so how was it?

I took ULL English lit class and passed. But it was not without much effort. There was a lot of reading, answering discussion questions, doing vocabulary and writing essays. It is an accelerated class which means it is a full term semester load condensed into 7 weeks. Right now I am looking at taking stat 214. Has anyone taken the statistics 214 at ULL?

I took Stats at ULL. Certainly wasn't an easy class, but managed to get a "B". When I took it, it was two 7 week semesters. I think it's only one 7 week semester now, so I can't say I'd take it with another class. You are pretty much teaching yourself and the professor wasn't the greatest. Exams are proctored...either with examity via webcam or you can go somewhere and be proctored. You have to have college algebra before taking stats at ULL. I also took College Algebra at ULL and it was also two 7 week semesters...different professor, but also wasn't the greatest.

Does anyone know if UoL takes CLEP for English Literature?
