Yes, This IS very sad....I unfortunately am 2 weeks away from completing my 3rd semester and just got a call last night that I will have to withdrawl....GRRRR!!!!!! For those who are considering this program.....please run! I have wasted a year of time and money. This last semester has been brutal and now I will not even be able to finish the courses I am in, with 2 weeks left!!! It has been a struggle from the beginning with Chamberlain, and I kept giving them the benefit of the doubt.....growing pains and all....but this is just really a big slap in the face to have come this far and now have nothing to show........... Hoping to make it into a program locally now....we'll see what happens. Sorry to everyone who is in the same boat as I........

Welcome to CCN! I started the program this past July and I am now at the end of Trimester 1 - woo hoo! So far, it has been great for me. The nervous jitters are normal. It does seem disorganized a lot of the time - but so far everything has ended up working out fine for me. I really like the online format - but just as a word of advice - keep up with the reading! Anyway, congrats on the acceptance. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me - I'll try to answer the best I can.

Hello everyone! I know there has to be some more of you who spoke with Michelle at DCN and got acceptance for starting this summer - come on, I know you're out there Anyway, give me a shout. Let's get to know each other early in the program. Hope to hear from you soon!

I just saw your post today. I live in Erlanger (about 5 minutes from Florence). I looked into Beckfield for the RN program but am still undecided as to where to attend. I have spoke with several people who have attended in the past and they have all spoke highly of the program.

Wow- this does not sound good at all! I too have applied and am hoping for a response. It sounds like it will be at least be April before we know for sure. Does anyone know of any other online programs that offer the same type of degree program as DCN?

Opalm - Did you just pay out of pocket to the schools for your sciences then? I'm just trying to figure out the finances for all of my schooling. Thanks so much for your response.

I was looking at taking my sciences through edukan. 1 Question: how have you all worked your fiancial aid into paying for the science courses? I plan to hopefully have all of my education covered through federal loans, but how do you split up the portion going to deaconess then the portion going to the sciences? thanks for the help!

I am 26 and have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. I want to switch to a career in nursing. I have no idea of where to start. I may have a job opportunity where they will pay for me to take the CNA courses and get that licensure, but I have no idea where to go from there! I get lost in all the abbreviations. Can anyone offer any suggestions?? Also, online programs with supplemental clinicals would be best for me right now. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
