I finally finished my RN-BSN program at WGU and I'm so happy! What a relief, I am such a procrastinator and I really put forth a lot of effort in this program. I love learning though, and I truly took a lot away from this school. Can't wait for graduation at Disney World next week!!

Thank you! It took me three terms. I could have easily done it in 2 terms if I hadn't procrastinated so much though.

Congratulations!! I was talking to my mentor about graduation in Florida yesterday during my mentor call. But I won't finish my program until next year (I'm determined). I'm sitting here studying Finite Math (I'm not in the BSN program). Shivers but oh well I'll get through it.

What will you do next now that you graduated?

You are doing IT right? What types of jobs are you interested in once you finish? As for me, I'm thinking of getting my MSN in education. I would like to take a year off between degrees though, because I am worn out (LPN, then ADN, now BSN). I really think that I would like to teach in some shape or form. Weighing my options. However, I do think that I'll attend one of the more well known local universities for that. My hospital offers impressive reimbursement for grad nursing programs, and even though I love WGU, I know that I'll have a better shot with employers if I come from a program with a great local reputation.

I was thinking the same thing going on to earn a grad degree. That is a good point about grad school and I didn't consider that.

I haven't started applying for any other jobs yet but it would make the most sense for me to stay in the healthcare sector but with IS instead of clinical. I met the director of my IS department at a meeting and had a nice conversation with him. I have his card so I will reach out to him when I graduate.

You'll have to tell us about graduation in Orlando.
