Accelerated 2nd Degree-Oakland University

[nicole26]

Hello All....I'm currently taking pre-req to get inton OU 2nd Degree Program in January 2008 or May 2008. I was hoping that some fellow OU 2nd Degree students can give me some feedback on the program. Also can you tell me how NRS 220, NRS 227, & NRS 280 are....these classes are required prior to starting the program. I was going to take NRS 220 Spring and NRS 280 Summer and NRS 227 Fall, how difficult are these classes and what professor would you recommend.

Just some general feedback would be great...Thanks!

I graduated from the RN-BSN program recently and had the opportunity to work closely with a number of professors and all of the advisors. The 2nd degree advisors are very good and know their stuff. I have met several other students in the 2nd degree program and all said that it is a tough program but graduation day made it all worth while. All I knew were employed before they took the boards. The 2nd degree programs are new in the state of Michigan. I spoke with one prof. who stated it usually takes about 5 years to get things on track. OU is a great school, I had a very good experience, granted I was already an RN with several years experience. Good luck and keep the faith. If you are accepted you should give yourself a pat on the back because they receive 500 applications a semester.
