Oklahoma Wesleyan University- has anyone gone there for the RN-BSN online? It says on their page there is no statistics, chemistry, or clinicals required, $388 credit/hr. All online. It sounds too good to be true... I am looking to talk to others who have gone here or researched this school well.

I spoke with them and was pleased with the phone contact. They do require several religion classes which adds to the cost of the program...unless of course you've taken those. I would love to hear what others have to say.

I don't recall but at least 6 credit hours. There is Indiana Wesleyan and Oklahoma Wesleyan. As I recall they are similar but it seems there was a tuition difference. Pull up their websites and you can see for sure. I think they are CCNE accredidated, too.

Pity it doesn't require statistics. I think that's very valuable for nurses to experience in order to better extrapolate research. I think any nurse who doesn't have to take a stats class is really missing out on their nursing education.

At least a "statistics for healthcare" type of class ... I agree. I can tell you that grad-level EBP courses are going to just assume a student knows the dealio; if you don't, you might not do quite as well.
