  1. RN-MSN program at Aspen University

    Quiet1, when did you start? Moving right along! I start June 1st and I'm a bit nervous about it. Can someone tell me how it starts? I've registered for 490 and I assume I will get some info a few days...
  2. Aspen University

    The folks at Aspen are the nicest people you'll ever speak with regarding school. I recommend you call and speak with Emma...she's a doll! My impression is they look at the individual and what you...
  3. Oh, that's too bad. Small county jails don't require that type of work. I don't lift anything. Very low key...lots of responsibility but not physically demanding. I wish you luck with your
  4. Have you checked into working in corrections? County jail, prison, etc? No lifting! Love my job. You might look into this area. Good luck to
  5. WGU is very reasonable. I think it depends on your long range goals. For me it's better to skip the BSN and go for the MSN. With whatever school you choose you should make sure it won't interfere with...
  6. Yep, if you want the BSN this isn't the program. I have a BS in a non-nursing field so opted for the MSN over the BSN-MSN. Once I have the MSN the BSN portion won't matter for my purposes. Good to...
  7. Hmmm... there is definitely a program. There is the bridge program for those of us with and ADN and the straight MSN program. Are you sure you went to Aspen Univ? site?...

  9. The courses commence (after acceptance) twice a month. Each class is 10 weeks long but are self paced so you can move more quicklly if you want. Once you complete a course you can start the next...
  10. I looked at just about every program out there and have settled on Aspen Univ. I am so happy I found out about the school on this forum. They don't really advertise. It's a CCNE accredited online...

  13. RN to BSN online

    More than likely you can transfer at least some of those. Are you wanting to do an on-line program? Check out the various threads under the student section. Good

    Greetings~ I'm going to Aspen! I plan to start in June if all goes as planned. I have a conference to attend in May so don't want to start until I return. Please offer suggestions to get ready....
  15. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    Electives at OU need to be the ones they specify in order to cost $153/credit hour otherwise the tuition is higher. There's a cultural class...Asian something or other that's $153//hr but if you...

    Chuckster, I am so sorry for all your troubles. Between you, me and the fence post you're right to move on. What a bunch of $H*T! I hope you can figure out a plan to get moving quickly. I recall...
  17. The University of Texas at Arlington

    So are you still planning on OU? These schools really p*$$ me off! I see why folks shell out a bit more to get somewhere!!! It's not cheap to have all those transcripts sent, application fees, etc....

    Ya know when they say something is too good to be true...well I think that's the case with OU...exceedingly

    Well, it sounds like maybe things are coming together for you. I hope so! Just dig in and get it done. It's a major bonus that tuition is covered...lucky you! All the best to

    SShannon81, please refresh my memory as to your long term goals. Do you want just a BSN? I've done a LOT of research and perhaps I can help. I'm going for RN-MSN for about $7200 plus books. Remind me...
  21. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    OU may be a good school but perhaps their online program has grown faster than they can manage. I have no patience for this when I've experienced the complete opposite from other institutions. I would...
  22. RN-MSN program at Aspen University

    I am thrilled with my decision to attend Aspen. Emma in admissions is efficient and supportive. This is exactly what I've been searching for. Thank you all! Now I just have to be accepted.
  23. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    I indeed feel your pain. I experienced exactly the same thing. It was awful! If their tuition weren't so reasonable they'd lose a lot of applicants through this inefficient process. It causes me to be...
  24. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    I haven't enrolled in AU yet but I'm darn close. I can complete the program then obtain NP certification if I choose to do so. I will not have a BSN but oh well. I have seen an MSN program that...
