Completing BSN in time

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with nudging up against a deadline for completing your BSN within a timeframe given by an employer? I had tried to complete my degree a couple of years ago through a traditional college but due to some health issues was unable to complete it. I am now a month and a half away from my five year deadline and have two self-paced classes left. I am pretty sure I will be done but wanted to hear from people who have had similar experiences. All HR has told me so far is that I could be let go.

    People were terminated where I worked. There was a deadline to be in a program and a deadline to have it completed. There were some who thought they could game the system and start a program then drop out. They were caught.

    I am definitely not trying to game the system! I wouldn't jeopardize my career like that! Thanks for your feedback.

    It wasn't just the gamers that were let go. It was everyone who didn't complete the requirement.

    Yeah I'm sure I will be let go if I am not done.

    My employer has made some exceptions if people show that they have been making steady progress -- and not just dragging their feet or trying to game the system. People who have been sincerely trying, but who had some legitimate obstacles to overcome … have been given a little extra time if the circumstances were right.
