Indiana Wesleyan Univ-online

I am an IWU graduate with my BSN. I went to a satellite campus. I loved the program. The only thing is I feel they failed to mention how the clinicals are all in addition to the regular one night per week. It caught me off guard and I needed to cut back on work to get it all done. But the program is great and it was christian based which I also appreciated. I took 2 online courses to finish up prereqs and I thought they were kinda hard but mostly because I like face to face learning. Good Luck

thanks for the info! How many hours did you spend in clinical, is it something you have to do every week? Also, did they accept all the prereqs you did elsewhere?

Actually, I graduated with my ASN from a nonaccredited school and IWU was the only university to accept all of my credits. I did have to take an "entrance" exam but that was a piece of cake. I spent approx 4 hours a week on clinicals. But with the distance I had to drive it really took up a lot of time. I did have a few extra credits I needed to pick up but it really was no problem. I didn't have to repeat any courses I had taken elsewhere. I really felt IWU was the first university I had come in contact with that catered to the "nontraditional" student. I took several courses online, "clep"ed out of some, and used my military transcript for others. I would highly recommend the program. I graduated in 2000.
