Bridge program Frontier

Just starting it.

Good Luck, Klone!

Good luck! I'm starting the regular MSN (CNEP) program in January and am taking their Statistics course now. So far it seems like it will be very manageable as long as you do your part.

Can't wait to hear how classes are going for you! :)

I hope to be there in the spring! I'm trying to make the Nov 4th deadline.

I did the Bridge program at Frontier (Class 64 - Jan 2009 to Dec 2009). Very doable with a FT job. You take 2 classes per term, for 4 terms in the year.

I hope to do it in a few years. Hopefully I can find a L & D job!!! They are scarce around me.

I am also CNEP and taking Stats now ), but I am in the bridge class 77

i am thinking of joining this program as well, how are you liking it klone?

So far it's great. It's been a bit of a transition back into student mode. The first week or two were a bit rough, but we're in week 4 of the semester now and I feel like I'm in my groove. It feels really good to be stretching my brain again.

They say it requires about 40 hours a week, but I'm finding that it's more like 20ish, and so far I'm maintaining solid As in both classes. So from my perspective, it's definitely doable with a fulltime job and a family, as long as you have some good chunks of alone time for taking tests and such.

I was originally planning on doing the CNEP portion as part-time status, but now that I'm into it and seeing what is expected, I've decided to switch to fulltime.

thanks for replying! i am planning on doing this course after i do my ADN (which i will hopefully start next year) and then i will probably have to work for a year (hoping to get a job in L&D) and THEN i will be applying to the ADN-MSN bridge...i know its so far away..UGH i just want to get things moving! lol but by that time my youngest (that we dont have yet HAH!) will be about 3 and my other 2 will be in school...so i am glad to hear that it is doable and doesnt really require 40 hrs a week.

Do the bridge courses require a lot of assignments or is it a lot reading or what?

I ask because I am thinking about doing the bridge at the same time I finish my BA degree since I only have electives left really........

Do the bridge courses require a lot of assignments or is it a lot reading or what?

Yes, yes and yes. It's very challenging, especially the third term. Third term approaches thesis-level in the amount of writing and research required.
