Anyone else starting July 1?

Published

Just seeing if there is anyone else starting when I am...did my intake interview yesterday, and have to pay by June 22, and then get my mentor...ready to get going!

They would not do an official transcript review for me as long as I showed classes "in progress" on the transcript, so I had to drop out of my fall classes I had kept as a backup in case I didn't go through with the transfer. So yes, you can get your transcripts reviewed prior to admission, but they must not show classes in progress. My admissions counselor was knowledgeable though and was able to tell me what classes would not transfer. I had no problems, they accepted every class she said they would. They will not accept any BS level nursing classes and have certain classes you must take with them, I will have to repeat a few.

Thanks for the reply! The current program I'm admitted in for RN-BSN has me taking only BSN nursing classes as I was able to transfer and appeal all the remaining classes. I hope WGU does the same.

I will be starting in July - RN to BSN. I need to finally get this darn BSN under my belt so I go on to bigger and better things. I am hoping to do it all in one term.

Omg! That's amazing! Thanks for sharing that. I don't think I have that in me, but I hope to accelerate a little bit.

Thanks! I'm single. No kids. No obligations other than working three days a week. I was fortunate! That being said, I still have to force myself to do several hours of work on a daily basis to accelerate at that speed.

Biochem was easy for me. Just do not look too deeply into the directions. Remember that 'B' equals 'degree' at WGU. Do not strive for perfection when doing the work.

GASP! Second-rate work is okay in this program. Remember that. You can resubmit bad work as many times as you want until you get it right.

It took me three weeks to complete biochem while working four 12-hour night shifts per week. Others have finished the course in less than a week while working full-time and dealing with their spouses/kids.

Biochem took me six days, working full-time, no kids. It's not hard, but it can be time consuming. I finished 29 credits (my BSN) in 4 months....and I did nothing one month. I am hoping to finish another 10-15 in the MSN before my term ends at the end of August and finish up my MSN in the next term.

Did you read the book at all? Did you memorize competencies? Watch videos? Read available study guides? Use Quizlet? Basically…what are your secrets?! ;)
