Im planning to start the RN-MSN this spring/summer. Ive been impressed by what I have learned about WGU. Also, I work for the VA and they support WGU nationally with the scholorship program. That speaks highly- the VA always joins new things late in the game and only after much research.

For the RN to MSN, how may CU do/did you have? I just got my transcript review and have 67, which is a little more than I expected. I would love to do I in a year but....that's a lot., although, there are many who did 35ish in 6mos so...maybe [emoji12]....

Hi! I haven't posted in years but Frequently hang around to read (posted this in general student but realized this is where it should be). I found Allnurses to be so helpful when I was in school...I'm heading back for my MSN and have a question...so I'm back posting here as well. :-) I'm in the admission process at WGU and am really excited (and dreading it too, lol), but probably won't start until summer due to timing of scholarship funds. I've seen a lot of WGU alumni posts say the capstone takes 6 months. Is this while working on other competencies or did you have to take a semester just for that alone? I know it's different for everyone and there are the rare few that finish in less than 6 mos, but is it a paper you can work on continuously or is it a stand alone? thanks!

Hi! Yeah I got in, and it is not really that competative. I think there were only a couple people who had met all the requirements and didn't get in, if that. Last year there was only one person. It is a good program, I have two months left-grad in August! WooHoo!! cannot wait! Hope it goes well for you, nursing school is tough but it goes fast and is such a rewarding accomplishment!!

Yeah, I am in PO too, (but OC has an LPN too, if anyone needed/wanted to go that route) and yeah, you have to want it really bad to get through nursing school.

No, I am working as a caregiver. I passed the state board in Oct, and my employer has been very flexible with school hours, so I think I will stay there.... I had planned to go straight ADN, but didn't get in fall of 08 because I didn't have my micro done at the time, so I went to Clover Park and will be done at the same time I would have if I had gotten in the ADN. Also, the competetion is much less for both the LPN and the bridge program. It is another option for those who don't get in to the 2 year program.....

Hi! Anyone starting Olympic College's TADN this winter? I graduated from Clover Park's LPN program last August and am scheduled to start the TADN (Transition to ADN) program at OC winter 2010. Anyone completed this program? Any input is appreciated! :loveya:

Hi. I am scheduled to start the LPN program at Clover Park Tech in the Spring, and wonder if there are any who are going or are familiar with this program??? :typing
