Hi all. i recently applied with GCU for the RN-BSN online. this is what the nice lady emailed me.Highlights include:

• No clinical rotation or mandatory outside group work
  
• Flexible schedule that allows you to attend classes based onyour availability
  
• No pre-requisites or co-requisites required, which means no chemistry or college algebra
  
• Theoretical-based curriculum (reading, research and papers)
  
• Limited, if any, tests or quizzes
  

This is too good to be true. Any graduates from GCU out there? also how long is the program approximately? thanks

So MSN classes are 8 weeks long?

What are the common topics for the MSN paper? Do you have to present your capstone at your workplace?

I agree with you about the BSN paper. Mine was 36 pages long, lol.

I just graduated from the GCU, RN-BSN program and am wondering who difficult the MSN program is.

Hi everyone, after taking a break i decided to go back to my rn-bsn and get this over with it. My next class is statistics and I am taking on 8/11. I was wondering if anyone is scheduled for that class as well. and also what to expect? Thanks!

Welcome back to the dark side. :)

If you are not familiar with statistics, start by reading the definition of what you will be studying. Buy a book on stats for beginners, dummies, idiots, healthcare professionals and start getting the basics down.

I read in one of these posts couple of months ago regarding some YouTube videos that someone found really helpful to understand statistics. I can't remember the name. Any suggestion? I am trying to get ready for my class.

IMO, aim them at what you need to know for the class, or find some beginner ones. There are some from GCU that did match homework, but it's for excel and doesn't help with the workbook.

Thank you so much for your post. I am looking into tranfering from Aspen University that is really time demanding (30 pages of papers weekly).

When you mentioned the assignment being about 1500 words...does it mean weekly or per class? Thank you for your response.

If no one responded Agape practitioner, it typically is weekly not per class.

I am starting my RN BSN online in April. Since I am foreign educated nurse I am looking for a program (I know it exists) to help me with writing papers (as far as layout, citations...)
