I am thinking Western Governors University. Being that they let you complete courses as fast as you can, and have 6 month enrollment terms. I think the key would be having as many general eds as possible going in. I will be looking into them more next week. I would love to have my BSN done in 6-9 months. I have been told that they do a lot of papers, but I think if you can really block out your schedule, it can be done.

I am doing a local state supported college for RN-BSN. I started in July 10 and will finish May 11. It takes 3 semesters.

My understanding about Western Governor's is the top GPA you can earn is a 3.0 due to their competency based learning. Please someone, correct me if I'm wrong. I opted not to attend there for that reason. I want to leave the door open for grad school and a 3.0 won't cut it in many institutions. Good luck...I'm trying to accomplish the same goal.

So, you did FT online that quickly? Do you also work? What are courses like?
Thanks!
are these questions for me?....i have 2 jobs , 6 children, one husband and take care of a elderly father plus managed to go full time to complete my bsn (ended up with a 3.6)...courses are staggered so that you do not take 5 courses at once but take one course for the entire semester then the other 2 last like 6-8 weeks each. i ended up taking a masters level quality course (in place of my elective) as well in my last semester and made a a.

did you have all of your general eds done, prior. i was looking at texas tech because i saw you were there, but it seemed like it would be longer for me because i may need more general eds. thanks in advance.
the only thing i had to take was stats and i did that at my local community college....i had a previous bachelors and two associates degrees.
