Does anyone know if the credits earned at Chamberlain transfer to other establishments? If for some reason I couldn't complete the program I would like to know if the credits transfer.

Hi I recently was accepted to chamberlain and 50 of my credits transferred I am so excited. I was wondering does anybody have a similar amount of credits accepted? If so How much time was projected to complete the program for you guys ? I'm a little worried about it because I will be utilizing my post 9/11 benefits and I think I will run out before the end of my schooling. Thanks in advance for any feedback !

[Ladybug993]

What is the time frame or date they gave for graduation. You probably won't run out

I haven't did my counseling meeting yet I don't do it until the 6th I just got the call this week and the advisor told me which credits transferred

[Ladybug993]

That's great. Curious are you already in the medical field? Which campus

I transferred about the same amount of credits too. Covered most of my 1st pre-reqs and some of my other classes. Knocked little over a year off. I am also using post 9/11. The thing to remember with Post 9/11 is that the financial/school year runs differently to Chamberlain You may max your annual benefit by the May session, simply because most schools are off summer and of course the school is not cheap.

I ran into this during my May session so just be prepared for that. The VA financial year begins again August 1st so I can get money again during my September session.

Hope this helps and if you have anymore questions feel free to PM me

Ha... The only thing that helps if you/spouse is retired because that is where the yellow ribbon kicks in..í ½í¸„ Next year I will be getting close to it... May sounds crazy but I strongly believe it God brings me to it he will bring me through it... Already in his plans

No but I was a corpsman in the navy and I loved it.

My best advice is if you think more credits should have transferred l then keep asking for revaluations.

As a corpsman, do you know about the school in San Antonio that lets you challenge the LVN board?

I transferred 50-60 credits, I have another bachelors and did not need anything but most of the NURS courses. The program was still 2 years for me. You can't stack clinical courses. I used the Yellow Ribbon for most of my last year. PM me if you have questions. Do you know about the Hazelwood Act?

Hi all I'm back again with questions so I did my pre enrollment meeting today and everything went well I just have a question for anyone who is going to chamberlain and utilizing post 9/11 benefits. I was awarded grants and loans through fasfa when I was at HCC my grants and loans were refunded to me since my gi bill covered everything. The counselor that I spoke with today at chamberlain told me my grants and loans would be applied first for my tuition so does this mean I will not recieve refunds I thought that grants and loans were only applied as a place holder and once the va disburse payments grants and loans are refunded I have a 100% eligibility with my benefits and I didn't have any problems with refunds at my last school so do anyone have any experience with this I will not be working due to the fast pace of the school and I stretch my refunds for survival during school so I am a bit confused and upset any advice would be appreciated!

I did a loan a couple years ago and what they did was apply that first then after VA pays too I received the refund.. But am currently only using VA benefits
