Hi! I just started at GCU for the RN to BSN online program. I'm in my second class right now, but I'm doubting on whether or not to keep going forward. 1st because they don't offer the Public Health Certification as many other BSN programs do in CA. And 2nd I'm so confused with the Nurs 490 Capstone class. My counselor just contacted me about it and I'm not sure what she meant by 100 immersion practice hours?
For those of you who have completed the GCU rn to bsn program, who did you ask to be your mentor? And did you go forward to get your Public health certification afterwards? Pleas help!! I feel so confused and wondering if I've wasted my time and money on this program

The Capstone class has recently changed....used to be 5 weeks, now it is 10 and totally different content from when I took it. But you will find some info on those 2 threads regarding the new 10 week capstone class. Still not a lot of info out there about it though.
