Nursing Students Chamberlain College

Does anyone have any feedback on the Chamberlain RN-BSN Online program? I'm in the processing of applying and I'm just wondering if the program is going to be any good.

Thoughts please! Thank you!

I am starting in march, adn to msn fnp. It is expensive but all in one shot, all online, one weekend immersion is just fine. Hope it goes well.

It's pricey? It's one of the cheapest online RN-BSN programs with quality education that I have seen.

I agree. Its about $20-30k depending on your needs so it can be pricey for some people. I thought i would be enrolling in March but I feel continuous pressure from their offices asking me to call them. I dont have time to sit and chit chat on the phone to go over every process. This isnt my first time in school so i am a bit annoyed by that. I found a few schools that are cheaper so now idk what to do.

I had the same experience but have also applied to other programs so I am not smitten with Chamberlain.

Yes, the tuition is pricey and the education is quality. However, many other quality online programs cost less than half of the tuition Chamberlain is charging:

1. UT Arlington online BSN: $257 per credit

2. Ohio University online BSN: $243 per credit

3. Fort Hays State U online BSN: $186 per credit

4. Eastern New Mexico U online BSN: $225 per credit

5. Grantham University online BSN: $265 per credit

One thing to consider when looking at price is the overall number of credits required by each school. It is nice when the per-credit-hour price is lower, but if a less expensive school requires 10 to 15 extra credits, the prices end up being very similar to Chamberlain in the long run.

Very true. It also depends on the transferred and/or proficiency credits.

The cost is very high but I have found the work load easy. Also they have 6 start sessions a year so taking one class at a time works well. If you need a break you can just take 8 weeks off and then restart. There are lots of resources that help you through the classes. Economic has been my hardest class so far. I take finals in a couple of days. Six more classes to go!!!!!

thank you for the info and details :)

Hey Commuter, you're in the area. Have you formed an opinion on TWU's RN-MSN (FNP) program by any chance? Figure with you being in the area, you may have had conversations about it. Considering skipping the BSN and going straight to FNP. Otherwise may RN-BSN through UT-A then do FNP, though that Fort Hays tuition seems pretty tasty.
