  1. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Great info nevergonnagiveup! I'm still waiting and waiting for a transcripts eval. Will you start with NUR 300 as a solo and then take two concurrent classes; or will they allow you to start with two...

  2. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I am limited to an on-line program in spite of the cost. Txspadequeen, how many and what courses did you complete in that time frame? Is that FT with concurrent courses? I'll look again at that...

  3. Any Chamberlain RN-to-BSN that have gone on to FNP?

    mtsteelhorse replied to Murse901's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Has anyone decided? NP program in my state says Chamberlain is fine. Can't get ANY feedback about Ohio Univ program which makes me leary. Would love to know more about demands of Chamberlain program....

  4. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It all gets to be a bit confusing. Until one gets in writing exactly what transfers it is unclear as to what one needs for completion. I called Chamberlain yesterday and it's really straight forward...

  5. how does a nurse become a dentist?

    mtsteelhorse replied to lyanne's topic in Nursing Career

    Why not complete your diploma in nursing and then start the process of preparing for application to several schools of dentistry? Many schools have pre-dentistry programs that fulfill the necessary...

  6. Any Chamberlain RN-to-BSN that have gone on to FNP?

    mtsteelhorse replied to Murse901's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I spoke with Chamberlain yesterday. My only hesitancy is financial. If they were less expensive I'd be on it. I am curious about states not accepting them. They have 3 accrediations which from my...

  7. Any Chamberlain RN-to-BSN that have gone on to FNP?

    mtsteelhorse replied to Murse901's topic in Post Graduate Students

    It looks like 3 semesters would be 18 months??? I'm looking for a 1 year (+/-) program also. How long did it take you WyndDrivenRain? I have some credits from a BS and ADN...thanks for feed back. How...

  8. BSN or BGS?

    mtsteelhorse replied to Breezey514's topic in Nursing Career

    A BSN means just that. I have a BS in a non-nursing field and an ADN. So, basically as far as nursing I have an ADN and my BS means zip to my employer. A BA/BS in another field + ADN = ADN to most...

  9. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Ohio Univ. is $155/credit hour and Ft Hays is $170/credit hr so they are very close. I went to the Ft Hays website to try and determine the exact requirements but all I could find was hrs required per...

  10. WGU RN to BSN STUDENTS

    mtsteelhorse replied to lsilva7's topic in Western Governors University

    I have not attended but have looked into it. A lot depends on the number of credits you need. Did you transfer credits to the program? I've heard of some folks completing it in 6 months. Just know you...

  11. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Bluegrass RN thanks for your comments. No, there aren't any BSN programs without the liberal arts requirement. That is a big part of any bachelors degree. What Chuckster is referring to is a generous...

  12. Any Chamberlain RN-to-BSN that have gone on to FNP?

    mtsteelhorse replied to Murse901's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I can't seem to locate the exact requirements for Chamberlain's BSN. I have an ADN and BS in a non-nursing field but did poorly in some of my courses years ago. It's spendy but is it super fast? I'm...

  13. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Great feedback. I have also just found the University of Southern Alabama. They have MSN program for ADN with a BA/BS in a non-nursing field. Apparently you're awarded the BSN and finally the MSN...

  14. Corrections NPs?

    mtsteelhorse replied to max66's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am a RN working in detention. I work with a NP that oversees two detention facilities. She loves it except for the staff management portion, LOL! I think a new grad would do fine. The primary thing...

  15. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks for your encouraging reply. I'm still optimistic but I won't know for certain until everything is laid out officially. I can't find another program that has the basic ingredients of OU. I'm...

  16. RN-MSN program at Aspen University

    mtsteelhorse replied to mkdwhnpbc's topic in Online Distance Learning

    There are quite a few bridge programs for AAS nurses that want to earn a Master's. You don't necessarily earn a BSN along the way, but for many folks that's not an issue so long as they have the

  17. RN-MSN program at Aspen University

    mtsteelhorse replied to mkdwhnpbc's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I just looked at their program and it looks fantastic! They are very reasonable. I couldn't quite figure out how long each class is. It appears they have rolling admission. Is it very challenging...

    mtsteelhorse replied to tootsie2184's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Excellent! So, you'll need your RN to get to the CRNA. Here's a thought...check with the local high school. See if there are any students interested in early childcare. I did this and had a wonderful...

  21. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm getting a bit concerned about Ohio Univ. I called to check on transcript evals. Now they tell me I might not know exactly what courses are required until after the first class starts. That sounds...

  22. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    chuckster, I will let you know how the transcript eval goes. It may be they waive the psych class since you've had so many already. I'm going to give them a call today and see where they are with my...

    mtsteelhorse replied to kelluvanurse's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hi, I'm going to complete my RN-BSN online with Ohio Univ then apply to the NP program in my state, which is also on line. Let us know what you find out about other options. I think it is wise to...

  24. Choice among on-line RN-BSN programs

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I have applied to Ohio Univ. and I have had the same concerns. I chose Ohio because of less requirements as compared to UT Arlington. They had some specific history and polisci requirements if I'm not...

  25. Any one use the Alek classes?

    mtsteelhorse replied to echo56's topic in Online Distance Learning

    The Aleks courses look good. I need an actual letter grade however. Would you recommend say the pre-stats course for someone who has to take a stats course for a grade in the future? In other words,...
