Looking at the online schedule for courses in the accelerated BSN program, most of them other than the Clinical courses are listed as internet classes. Are you physically on campus and at clinical sites M-F 8-5? If that's the case, are these not actually internet classes?

Hello all. I have not posted anything on here in awhile, but my excuse is... Accelerated BSN program!! I have read the previous postings and I do agree that the program is unorganized at times, but it has a lot to do with their online coursework computer systems. It is slowly getting better, but it definitely was not something I expected to deal with in this program on top of all the academics/reading/clinicals, etc. The summer semester was extremely fast-paced and the classes are organized into a block system where you focus on one for 3 weeks, then another for 4 or so, and so on. I personally like block scheduling, so the summer was not the nightmare I had imagined it to be. It was the most studying I've ever done in 2 months, but I still had time for other things. The fall semester was also busy, but it was more like a normal 14 credit hour semester. It is definitely challenging and there are sacrifices that you will have to make, especially for those who have families, but in my opinion it has been worth the hard work. Time management is sooo important in this program. It saved my life, believe me! I got married during the fall semester in October and so I'm proof that you still can have life outside of school during this program :) We weren't able to take a honeymoon b/c of my classes and b/c of his military schedule but in August after I graduate, there will be a very LONG vacation :) Good luck to everyone who is applying for next year's ABSN program. If you have any questions, feel free to email me.
