Grand Canyon RN-BSN

Nursing Students Online Learning

Published

Is there any updated information? I have been in heavy contact with them and am looking at taking their RN-BSN program. I work with a GCU grad and she has nothing but positive things to say, but I want more opinions. ?

Any pro's and cons? Thankfully the only class I'm missing is stats and that is offered in the actual BSN program. I'm a bit nervous as my algebra skills are way old. If anyone took this class, do you have any advice?

i had my transcripts unofficially evaluated and it looks like i will need only the nursing class. if i start dec 12 then my expected graduation date is march 2014. But i dont want to start when i know for sure where i stand officially. i am glad they did all the work. I am also waiting for chamberlain, capella and South newhampshier university. i will go with the cheapest or less class. i didnt know you get a discount if you an ANA member. 10% will do a lot of help. also i transfared stats class yay.

In response to your question about GCU, I am more than half way through the program, and have had no major problems. I am doing my entire program on line, and the only real problem I have had is in one of the earlier classes and group work. It was more of a classmate problem than a school problem. One of the people in my group did not contribute very much, adding more work for the rest of us. Otherwise, I have been very happy with the program. I work full time, and take one class at a time (5 week, 3 credit classes). Hope this helps! Good luck :)

SarapRN, any update? Pro's, cons? Where are you now in the program?

How was stats? Any help on that one that you can give?

How is everyone doing?

I'm curious how everyone who got into GCU is doing now? I'm interested in applying but hesitant as you all were. Hope all of you are doing well!!

No problems whatsoever. The financial part has been smooth and my advisor touches base with me about once a month, or once each class.

It is busy, but maybe every BSN program is. I work FT and have a family. I spend a lot of my free time doing homework. On my days off a big day out is grocery shopping, lol. I may have a few hours off every day to NOT do homework. Sigh...

The instructors are approachable which is nice and they get back with answers to questions on a timely basis.

Hi courtleighk,

Like tokmom says, "no problems whatsoever". So far things have been smooth sailing with my financial aid, my advisor, etc. The classes themselves are not difficult, but do be prepared to put time into them. I am in my 4th class and every one of them has had a group project. That is not my favorite thing to do, but I've survived. One good thing is that each class is 5 weeks, so it goes fast! I do encourage you to take the plunge and join us! Good luck! :yes:

Thanks for your replies:) Getting excited!

Has anyone heard of a youtube stats video that is made by GCU nursing students? It is supposed to exist, but I cannot find it.

Hi centered-rn,

I am currently looking into GCU online RN to BSN program and wanted to ask you now that you have been doing this program for a while; what to you think about their program???

Can anyone offer any feedback on the GCU online RN to BSN program? It would be much appreciated. :-)

Not rn-centered, but pandorasbox and I have been in classes for 4 classes now. What do you want to know? We are set to take stats in 3 weeks.
