How long did it take you?

How long did it take you to complete the RN to BSN program online? I am from California and would like to complete it as soon as possible once I start; I am just wondering how long it has taken some people.

Thanks

    Eddie, I started Jan 2011 and graduated Dec 2013 so 3 years.

    That is a bit deceiving, because I was done with all my courses a few months earlier and just had to wait for graduation. Also, I took classes one at a time only and I had a bunch of general courses I needed to take.

    Some of my co-workers have made it through the program taking only the 1 year that UTA advertises. That means taking two courses at a time and it also means you already have all or most of your gen ed stuff.

    Since I wasn't in a hurry, I much preferred the slower 1-course-at-a-time thing. Additionally, it helped me to afford school because I didn't have to pay for the entire program in 1 year.

    I still had 6 gen ed courses to take as well, but it only took 20 months to complete...and I RARELY took more than 1 course at a time (I don't suggest taking two if you work full time, it's do-able but you will be pretty swamped).

    I started Jan 2012, finished Sept 2013. I worked part- to full-time while in the program. I usually took two classes at once, though I took a few very notoriously difficult classes on their own (that was HIST 1312, Research and Vulnerable Pop).

    I would have finished sooner, but two things happened. First: I had a baby during the program, and I didn't take classes in the semester that I delivered. Second: I had forgotten to enroll in one of the non-nursing courses at the right time, and that threw off my whole course map by several months. I could have finished in Mar 2013 had I kept to the map.
