Yes the cost and 2yr program attracted me as well as the good reputation of the school. Everyone I have dealt with so far has been great.

2 papers for the class. You have to participate in weekly discussions, I am not sure if there is a log in requirement, but if you participate in the discussions I assume it meets any requirement. It is a lot of writing.

congrats! I just started in February. So I am almost done my first class. It is fast paced but doable. I work full time and have a family. It is very organized and the semester is laid out so you know what is expected of you. If you are dedicated you will have no issues competing the course work.

Yes I feel like there is a lot is support and everything is laid out ahead of time

Update-just finished Week one, I am very happy with the orientation and communication so far. Everything is organized and laid out as far as the classes, and I had access to the class a couple weeks before the start date.

Congrats. I guess part of it depends on whether you are interested in critical care. But based on your location and the choices of hospitals, if I were in your shoes I would choose Cooper.

Lol. My post was respectful I was just responding to you that your concerns with the program weren't the same as mine. Did you complete the program?

I am in NJ so I was specifically looking for online. The program is affordable compared to others. I did my BSN online, so I am aware it is essentially self taught with some guidance. All programs I have looked into require you find your own preceptors. I already have a primary care preceptor lined up. I find it suspicious you just joined an hour ago and this is your only post?

I have been admitted, just waiting to hear if I am starting in February or May.

@friskee they responded to my online application the next day. I was able to fax over unofficial transcripts, and I was conditionally accepted pending my official transcript that shows my BSN conferral on 12/11/15. So it was a quick process and they are very pleasant to deal with. Your GPA sounds fine.

Hello, I would like to start a Facebook group for the Olivet FNP February 2016 cohort if anyone is starting then?

Hello, cherub, thanks for the info, I am strongly considering Olivet for MSN FNP online. I am also considering Chamberlain, who has a strong presence on Facebook with groups, are you aware of any groups for Olivet?

I think 20 hours a week would be ok, the attendance is very strict, you can not miss more than 4 lectures, or 2 labs or 2 clinicals. Nur 119 was an adjustment but if you do what you are supposed to, you will make it through just fine. I got this book and it was a huge help: http://www.amazon.com/Fundamentals-Success-Applying-Critical-ebook/dp/B0026IUP72/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&m=AG56TWVU5XWC2&s=digital-text&qid=1284433837&sr=8-3

Hi-I started @ BCC Spring 2010. Here is the schedule: Mon: Lecture (Pemberton) 4pm-5:50pm Tues: Lecture (Pemberton) 4pm-5:50pm Wed: clinical either 4-10:30 or 4:30-11 Thurs: lab (Pemberton) 4-7 depending on your section your Wed & Thurs may be reversed they are very strict with attendance, and late=absent. If you miss more than 4 lectures for the semester, or 2 clinicals or 2 labs, you fail the whole thing. I was lucky to not be working the first semester, which was good, because besides the time you spend in class, you will spend a lot of time reading and studying. Also, our exams were on Friday afternoons, about once a month, and you had to be there at 3pm. Good luck, it is a great program. I think I got my acceptance letter sometime in Sept if I remember right.

I would love to borrow it! is anyone else going to register on Monday?
