  1. WGU starting tomorrow!

    BetterMeRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Well, I graduated with an ASN from my RN program which would leave me with 8 nursing classes to take. If you graduate with a AAS, then you may need to take more than the required 8 classes....

  2. WGU starting tomorrow!

    BetterMeRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Thanks for sharing, my counselor called me yesterday and told me I was missing some information. It appears I'm missing my loan entrance counseling and my master promissory note signed. I'm taking...

  3. WGU starting tomorrow!

    BetterMeRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I feel the same way, I just want to know what classes I need and when I can get started. You must be enrolled in order for them to evaluate your credits and that in it self is a process. Hope it...

  4. WGU starting tomorrow!

    BetterMeRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I don't think they take Excelsior's A&P and Micro or if they do, only partial. I think you need statistics for WGU so I wouldn't quit that class. I'm hoping for the same start date. I want to...

    BetterMeRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

  6. Good-bye UT-A. Hello WGU.

    BetterMeRN replied to KrysyRN's topic in Western Governors University

    How long after taking the assessment test did you get the results? It's been a week, I haven't heard anything. My credits haven't been evaluated yet, it seems like the process has slowed down...

  7. Good-bye UT-A. Hello WGU.

    BetterMeRN replied to KrysyRN's topic in Western Governors University

    So, I'm just waiting for my credits to be evaluated to see how many classes I have to take. I want to start ASAP, but I guess I'll have to wait until October. Does anyone know what to expect, how...

  11. Good-bye UT-A. Hello WGU.

    BetterMeRN replied to KrysyRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Did you graduate from EC, I'm sure you said that? Did you graduate with an ASN degree? If so, how come you have to take Nutrition? Shouldn't Nutrition be one of the courses that would have been...

  17. Any hospitals or LTC's in the city hire associate RN's?

    BetterMeRN replied to pinoysn's topic in New York Nursing

    Yes, many hospitals hire ASN RN new grads but with new grad BSNs why should they. Especially if that BSN applicant has experience. Not trying to rain on your parade, I'm a ASN RN. I work in a...
