Chiro starting Wayland Baptist University (Texas) - any feedback

Published

Hello Nursing World,

I am a chiropractor who will be entering the nursing program, at Wayland Baptist University, in 2 weeks. I do have some concerns about this program, which in the hopes that someone out there will give me some feedback.

Lets start with the positive aspects:

1) I dont mind the clinical travelling

2) I dont mind the cost of tuition ($45T)

3) Get away from the California craziness, in the aspect of the nursing schools.

Now for the concerns:

1) What is the success rate of this program? I dont want to give all my money and in the end I will get screwed. Their refund policily is not as accomodating.

2) I understand that this school holds Christian type values. Will they help you or be accomodating when it comes to assistance in classes that students may have trouble in or are you just a number (or money) to them?

3) I would like to hear from students who have been through this program - any other thoughts you may have. Please be honest. Should I go to this school or not.

Thanks

DGF

once you are accepted you start the nursing classes, but you have to finish your other classes as well. You have 3 or 4 semesters to finish all your lacking prereq's or they won't let you go on till they are done. I just did them at the same time and yes I worked full time it just provided for some late nights.

oh ok. Do they offer a day or evening program? do they have a set time like 7-3 or are the times scattered?

It is an online program (the online generic BSN) you do it whenever and have tests you take online. I did most mine nights and weekend.

This has all the info.
