Help please! WGU RN to BSN

Published

I have been a RN now for 6mths and I am ready to continue my education. I am trying to find a school this is really good but also affordable. During my research I have ran across WGU several times. Is anyone on here currently enrolled in WGU RN to BSN program or have completed it recently? If so I would love to know more about the program from personal experience. Workload, cost, etc. Or if anyone has any information regarding another school that's really good and affordable. Thanks!

I completed WGU's online RN to BSN program last year. My experience was enjoyable. It took me 10 months, 34 credits and $5,800 in tuition and fees.

I graduated WGU 3 years ago - BSN. Excellent program all the materials you need are included in the tuition and the admission fee is waived if you mention an alumni or current student referred you. You go at your own pace and your tuition is based on time not credits. The degree is respected and opened many more opportunities for me. Best of luck!

@ TheCommuter That was really good! Was the workload a lot to finish early?

I just submitted my last paper for my BSN at WGU. I started in October and finished 38 units since then. It only took me 3 months to finish my BSN! The only downside is the 3.0 GPA. I had a 3.9 from my associates degree, so I am hoping FNP programs will take an average of the two. I cannot stress enough how much I love this school. My mentor Serina was amazing and very supportive. She would answer any questions I had within half an hour of me sending an email. The course mentors are very helpful as well. They all want you to succeed and are great about providing resources to help you pass classes. I would highly recommend this program!
