Chamberlain RN to BSN online Jan 2013

Published

Hi everyone I will be dooing the RN to BSN online with chamberlain starting Jan. 2013. My first two classes are SOCS 350 Cultural Diversity and NR 351 Transitions in Professional Nursing. If you have any advise I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You:nurse:

Does anyone have a copy of the syllabus from the NR 351; Transitions in Professional Nursing class (uses the APA and Advancing your Career books) through University of Wyoming? I took it back in the Spring 2013 semester and am trying to transfer it to Chamberlain but they want a copy of the syllabus to review. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am not so sure about this chamberlain college of nursing after hearing good and bad stories.

1) Is it worth of money?

2) Where do you get your clinical sites in Chicago Area?

3) What is graduation Rate?

Has anyone taken any of the elective History classes? I need to choose from Post-1945, Vietnam & the 20th-Century Experience, Contemporary, or the Emergence of the Modern Era.

Any suggestions?

Specializes in cardiac/education.

I took the Vietnam class. Was doable and I think the least heavy in papers I guess.

Vietnam....not a bad class at all.

Hi. I'm enrolled in chamberlain due to graduate this July. I took soc 351 and nur 351 together. The nursing classes are very easy, it's the decry classes that require the most work. I hated cultural diversity. We had to write so many papers. The undergrad classes are the hardest.

Did you have any problems finding a job after completing the RN/BSN program from Chamberlain??

Are credits at Chamberlain transferable? I just passed my boards last week and now looking into online BSN's programs. P.S I'm not a great writer so this scares me!

Transferable to where? And just be aware that any online RN to BSN program is going to have a big writing component, between discussion posts and papers; something to think about as you plot your course toward advancing your degree. There are a lot of tools that can help you with writing, like Grammarly (my MSN program at Excelsior College included that for students for free). Congratulations on passing boards!

Are credits transferable to another college in case I don't like online schooling.

That would really be on a case-by-case basis, depending on the school you would transfer into. Your best bet would be to contact any brick-and-mortar schools that are likely contenders to see what their policies are. The good thing is the Chamberlain does have CCNE and regional accreditation, which makes acceptance of its credits more likely.
