Grand Canyon RN-BSN

Published

Is there any updated information? I have been in heavy contact with them and am looking at taking their RN-BSN program. I work with a GCU grad and she has nothing but positive things to say, but I want more opinions. ?

Any pro's and cons? Thankfully the only class I'm missing is stats and that is offered in the actual BSN program. I'm a bit nervous as my algebra skills are way old. If anyone took this class, do you have any advice?

This instructor defies reality. I turned my paper in last night at 2335 and I had a grade back when I logged on this morning. Maybe this is my reward for all those Sunday nights I sat here still waiting for last week's grade before I clicked 'submit' on the next one? And just hoping it would be okay and that if I totally bombed last week's that I didn't make the same mistakes on the one I'm about to turn in? Unbelievable. If I wasn't so tired I'd do a happy dance. Really, I'm enthused, you just can't tell `cause my Enthus-O-Meter is busted. :sleep:

Ain't she great? She actually reads them too. I turned in one short paper and, no joke, she had it back to me in less than four hours.

I'm a grad from nearly a year ago (May). Just wanted to say welcome!

Hopefully someone will come out of hiding and you can go through together. I find another AN and we even made sure we were in the same clc together. It worked out very well.

How did you like it? I work full time, but have no other obligations other than my husband and pup :) I hope I can manage it...

Spela,

I'm confused. Are you starting the MSN program or BSN? Your name above says SpelaD, BSN.
