American Sentinel College of Nursing & Health Sciences at Post University - RN to BSN

[joanied81]

I'm getting ready to start the RN to BSN program at Post university in April and I am wondering if anyone has recently gone to this school? I have seen older reviews from a few years ago. I am enrolled in the SIMPath. Any advice or revIews welcomed! TIA

Did you end up starting the SIMpath program through Post/ American Sentinel?  I'm looking into this option and also haven't found any recent reviews.  How much of the program is writing papers?  The information I've found online makes it seem like it's not all papers but a combo of powerpoint, online modules, video presentation, papers, etc.  It sounds too good to be true! Also, approximately how long did it take you to do a class? TIA

No, I pushed back my start date to this month due to work and my son graduating. I will be starting in a couple weeks. Yes, the term-based is 8 week terms, mostly discussion posts and papers, it's structured and has due dates; while the SIMPath is work at your own pace, 16 weeks, each class has a certain number of assignments to complete and you have a choice on whether to write a paper, power point, or whatever requirement to prove you mastered the material. I also liked this school because I won't have to complete any in person clinicals, but I have what they call practical experiences that are virtual. I would recommend that you call and speak with someone to get your questions answered and information about the program. I feel that is a better way for my to get my RN to BSN. I wish you luck in your journey!

Thank you for your response.  I was able to find a FB group with people who have done the program recently/ are currently enrolled.  It was just hard to find any discussion regarding this program.  Everything ended up being about Capella or WGU.  Best wishes to you as well!
