Hmmm, this is why I called and talked to a second admission counselor, lol. Just to double check that the first one was giving accurate information. And again I was told I had to be working, in a RN position, for at least 20 hours a week in order to be accepted. And yes this was in place of actual clinical time. I have researched dozens of schools and no one has implemented this form of obtaining 'clinical hours'. I am kind of bummed because I really wanted to attend this school, but being required to work two days a week, full time school, and homeschooling; it's just not in the cards . Thanks for your response!!!!

Hi, I am looking for some insight. I was told by an admissions counselor at WGU that I was required to work at least 20 hours a week in order to complete the RN to BSN program. This is first I have ever heard anything like this. I did see that the admission requirement was to be working as an RN, which is fine and understandable. I do work, but only one 12 hour shift a week. I haven't come across another school with these kind of requirements yet. Any suggestions, insights, or alternative schools comparable to WGU would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance :) !
