    GCU RN-BSN 2019 Capstone

    GCU RN-BSN 2019 Capstone

    I was on the old capstone class, so I dont know the answer for sure.....but from reading a few other replies on here, that 100 hr requirement is just you keeping a log of the time one puts into the capstone class....you just keep track on how long on...

    GCU RN-BSN 2019 Capstone

    Good luck! I finished the program in 2015, and that was with the old Capstone class, with the large paper! Lot more clear on what 1 had to accomplish. You must be nearly done now....enjoy the final submit click

    Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    I took like 5 months off....I simply emailed my adviser and started up again!
  10. Howdy all, I bit the bullet and after much research, I decided on Grand Canyon! Wow, I did not expect BSN schools to be like used car salesmen--hounding me by emails and phone calls. Rather impressed on how Grand Canyon sort of left me alone, but at ...

    Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    U should almost be done that class by now,lol I really found most of the classes the same, as they all tend (except capstone) follow the same format....just get into that rhythm of getting the discussion questions out of the way and work on the paper...

    GCU RN to BSN capstone course

    I was fortunate, that I was in the old Capstone class and don't recall having any issues of profs not grading fast enough. I think a few barely read the work, but they graded easy, so wasnt an issue,lol I believe its in the student handbook in how ...
