Hi,

Does anyone currently pursuing a degree in UOP? Im thinking of taking RN-MSN bridge program soon. This is when you have your bachelors in another field. I looked at their curriculum and the subjects for MSN are very general. If i decide to become a Family Nurse Practitioner, do you think this will help me? I havent seen any assessment for adult, child, etc. in the curriculum but lots of management building skills. Also, how rigid is the program

Any input please? Thank you.

the program has no clinicals, only theories and no tests. You are graded by your participation in group discussion, assignments, etc..... is that helpful?

It's also a private organization and they charge up the wazoo. Look into your local universities to see their distance learning programs. That's my plan.....

Yes, they charge $335 per credit hour. That is pricey but online learning fits into my lifestyle very well. I get a bit of tuition assistance from my hospital,we will see how much they think I need after they view my transcripts. I am enrolled in the RN to BSN program.
