Has anyone gone through this program? I am just graduating with an ADN and I am looking for either a RN to BSN or MSN. I would like online if possible( I'm in NH). I am currently working on statistics at a community college to get that out of the way. I really want to teach in the long run. I am 24yo now, so that will be in many years. T.Y.

I started in this program but have since transferred to the RN-BSN program. The only reason I chose to transfer is that I needed my BSN ASAP and could not wait to get both degrees at the end. The RN-MSN advisor (Jan) is an excellent resource and very easy to talk to. The program seems doable, although a bit expensive. I don't know the details but I did see that EC is now eligible for Title IV funds so you could possibly get federal financial aid.

I had similar reasons for choosing the RN-to-BSN program. At the time I began the BSN program, EC only offered the MSN with the Clinical Systems Management focus. Now there is also an Education track.

I'm getting semi-close to the end of the BSN program, but I still have the TAC, Health Assessment and Promotion, PSPR, and Capstone. Sometimes it feels like I'm close, but I know there is still a ton of work ahead of me and I can't imagine tacking on any graduate-level stuff.

BigKenny, have you looked at the UNH/Granite State College online RN-to-BSN program that they are starting up? That might be an option for you.
