Published

Anybody have any info on the new program at WCU? It's a straight BSN program with no LVN or pre reqs needed.

Nevermind I amend my previous comment but if it costs $63000 for an 18 month bridge I would be scared to calculate how much it would cost for a full BSN program

HOLY $@!!! Thats how much the bridge costs. This is going to be insanely expensive. Before I saw this I was planning on doing the LVN program and than pretty much go straight into the bridge. I mean thats going to take me 2 1/2 yrs. min. total just for the ADN. I guess i'll have to wait till they call me back with the schedule and the price. I mean it's only money!!! LOL!!

I'm afraid to ask but I will: Is it regionally accredited? NLN or CCNE accredited?

Regionally accredited CCNE accredited. By next year they will be the biggest producer of RN's in CA apparently. The facilities are top notch.

Here are the CCNE accredited programs, I don't see WCU there.

Here are the western region accredited schools, I don't see WCU there.

Do you mean then they are working on it? I've said in the thread about Everest that I am willing to pay the money, but only for accredited programs. I'm as eager to enter the programs as anyone! But having already graduated from a nationally accredited program once before I am not about to do that again! :)
