  2. Fastest LPN to BSN Program

    chaxanmom replied to arustyrobot's topic in LPN to RN

    Depends on how heavy a courseload you are willing to take on. I'm doing ISU and you can test out of your pre-reqs and 4 of your nursing course so it can be done pretty

    I took it as a regular college class a bazillion years ago. For financial aid pretty much anywhere you have to be at least half-time which is 6 credit hours so 2

    Hope you don't get tired of me answering for her...lol! No clinicals for 200 technically but you need a mentor with at least a BSN to help you. Doesn't have to be in a clinical facility though. She...

    Another Q for Chelle. Student loan refunds and books...do they get your refund to you in enough time to get books before class starts?? My old school had book advances but ISU

    Not working at the same time thank goodness!! lol! Hey, what are you doing with your books from those classes? I found all the health assessment ones on half.com for super cheap but the lists aren't...

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Another question for Chelle (girl you need your very own "Ask Chelle" sticky...lol!). What was the test out that you failed? 106? You said something about a lot of meds being on it so I was wondering...

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    ISU is an established brick and mortar school rather than a "virtual university" like Excelsior so you just fill out your FAFSA, etc like if you were attending in person. I'm transferring my student...

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    As far as I know there isn't an order for the 4 modules. I'd really like to get the adult one and the peds one done before classes start on the 7th that way I've got part of 106 done so maybe I should...

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Chelle, have you taken all 4 of the phase 2 test outs now? I'm going to take 224 (adults) first and was wondering how it is. I figured the mental health aspects one would be easy so I'm glad to hear...

  14. Re: Anyone enrolled in the ISU LPN to BSN program?

    chaxanmom replied to cure4autism07's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Phase 1 is just all your pre-reqs. I have started and stopped my degree about 700 times in the last 10 years (lol!) so I had most of my pre-reqs anyway. I only had about 6 or 7 to go. I used TCN...

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It was in May. That's what they normally are but they were running a special when I got mine. That's why I bought the gen eds and phase 2s all at once. I saved $1500 getting them right away so I did....

  18. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    That's what I'm wondering. I talked to a guy at ISU awhile back who said that was the only way to test out of those courses but now I'm wondering since I read Chelle's post. I got mine through a...

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yeah the 4 that you test out of. I'm using the College Network modules for those. I got registered today and I'm taking the transition course and health assessment (I think that's

    Hi Chelle. I just got accepted for Spring 08 and I'm waiting on Kim to set up my registration for the transition class. I'm working on my phase 2 modules now and I'm planning on testing on all 4 next...

  21. College Network

    chaxanmom replied to Laught3r's topic in LPN to RN

    Sure...why not? :) You are paying to purchase the modules. nothing in the contract says you can't let a friend use them (afaik). You wouldn't get the guarantee to pass thing obviously but that's no...

  22. Is Excelsior the only option???

    chaxanmom replied to rrt_thats_me's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Ohhh I see. Yeah it must be something specific to CA because my literature from them doesn't mention SSU at all. :) I know what you mean about CA. We lived there for 4 years and I got my LVN license...

    chaxanmom replied to Laught3r's topic in LPN to RN

    I wouldn't necessarily count on that advise but I could be wrongtoo. I'm just going by what I found out for the TEAS since I'm using the same guy for my phase 2 tests and he's already been approved. I...
