Indiana State University RN-BSN Distant Learning Program

Specializes in ALMOST ALL.

Hello To All Interested Parties:

I am trying to get into the BSN program Spring 2009-anyone else in front of me or going to go the same time as a distance learner?

:)

Specializes in Geriatrics.

My only advice is steer clear of the College Network if you are going to do this program. I am not in the program, but a coworker of mine was taking the prerequisites. She is now going through a local community college. The cost was exorbitant. The ISU program is a good one, just TCN adds so many fees, that it does not pay to go through them. Good Luck!!

Here is a link to a thread all about this program.

The RN-BS track is different than the LPN-BS track.....

I see you stated your classes some time ago. How is the program working for you? I hope to be following in your footsteps soon. Any advice you can give me will help. These nursing school programs are all expensive. What has been your experience.

Nurse Joy, I could not say it better. I have been advocating a community college for prerequisites based on the cost and the ability to talk to a professor should there be dififculty. However, because of work requirments, some can only take distant learning.

I am with ISU distant learning but took my prerequisites at a community college and also others, since I have a bachelors, at another university.
