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 all happened after my transcripts were submitted. And 2 of the advisors gave me different answers. I am very frustrated and disappointed with their program. I should be graduating right now :(

As I am rewriting my paper I am clicking save like every 5mins. I spent hours last night trying to recover instead of just moving on and now I am playing catch up.

Guess who didn't sleep last night? Guess who just turned their capstone in?

It's me for both questions!!!! :wacky::smokin::roflmao::angrybird9::cheeky:

Yay!!!!! I'm both exhausted and wired (coffee :) ). I'm very very happy. I just have to get my charge nurse to review it, and I send in that paper. Even if I do really bad on the project, I think I will still pass the class and at this point that is allllll i'm worried about.

5 more weeks and I will be able to wear my fancy new BSN pin. Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

I WISH on the Vino, I was actually sleeping! Well, if you count waking up every hour to hit refresh and see if she graded me yet as sleeping”. Plus I had to figure out how to get into my GCU email, I haven't used that, like, ever, and I remember her saying something about if she needed to send your paper back to you for revisions of screw-ups she'd email us. So far nothing yet, which is both good and bad.

I could cry for you Beauty, I'm so sorry! As most of us here, it happened to me once at 10pm on a Sunday… I had taken a short break to eat some cold pizza and when I came back the whole thing had shut down and restarted for some stupid automatic update! Nothing was there, zippo, nada, empty, blank Word doc. Like you, I sat there and cried like a baby. After redoing the whole thing in 2 hours (probably the most craptastic paper I ever wrote), I changed my Word to auto-save Q3 minutes as I type. And just when you think it can't happen during the world's most important paper, yesterday as I was cutting/pasting/culling/rearranging my final Cap, the whole screen went BLACK right before my very eyes. I then realized it was unplugged and the battery had died! NOOOOoooo!!!! I plugged it in and had to wait an excruciating 5 minutes before it came back, but it opened up right where I had left off – Thank You Gateway Laptop Gods! (I now know they exist).

Hi all I think I posted something similar on another page, but I am transferring my 15 year old Intro to Research in to GCU. Do any of you think you could have written your Capstone paper without it. Essentially I have forgotten it at this point... tomorrow is my first day back Prof Dynamics. .

This may be a dumb question, but even though you don't have to take Intro, can you? Can you substitute it for one of the extra-electives they want you to take later on?
