  1. WGU starting tomorrow!

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    For the love of God. Whatever you do, do NOT complain about your mentor to anyone. Just don't do it. Even if they are not what you need or want, don't do it. You will be harshly reprimanded for

  2. First time passers of CPNE?

    SweettartRN replied to Mimi2bRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I passed the first time, no repeats. I also did NOT attend a workshop or any other nonsense. I bought Rob's CPNE dvd's and practiced and had Skype sessions with a

  3. WGU starting tomorrow!

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Not trying to dissuade you. I have just seen some people here compare apples and oranges and then get ticked when their apple doesn't match the other person's orange. It can certainly give you an...

  4. WGU & Financial Aid

    SweettartRN replied to ReggaeRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Yes! WGU is fully funded by student loans, and you should have no problem so long as you have submitted your FAFSA. Good

  5. Nurse Chart Reviewer jobs. Are they out there?

    SweettartRN replied to skinnycow's topic in General Nursing

    Med Assurant always seems to be hiring. You may want to check with

  6. WGU - competency based means let go of perfectionism!

    SweettartRN replied to klone's topic in Western Governors University

    Klone I am glad that you posted this because I am an English snob. :) I will have to just follow my guidelines, write my papers and get them turned in! What has been the most challenging paper you...

  7. WGU starting tomorrow!

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Just because they have the same kind of degree as you do does not mean that you can compare and contrast. Where and when you went to school are two huge

  8. WGU starting tomorrow!

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    They didn't change my course of study- she is just refusing to give me access to all of my classes now. Huge

  9. WGU starting tomorrow!

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Just a word to the wise- I would NOT go on other people's transcript reviews to judge what you may or may not have to take. Such as the following: I did not have to take stats, but do have to take...

  10. WGU starting tomorrow!

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I will have to look into this because I was pretty angry when she did this to me. My advisor told me that ALL classes could be opened for me, and I could work on them at my own pace.... I will...

  11. WGU starting tomorrow!

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Standing on my soapbox: WGU WILL ONLY TAKE PARTIAL CREDIT FROM EXCELSIOR! Stepping down...... So I finished EWB and had my counselor meeting today. Or mentor, as they call them. I am a tad annoyed. I...

  12. STLCC-LPN BRiDGE not passing

    SweettartRN replied to rmcneese's topic in LPN to RN

    Of course it's scary. Because it's starting to me that a 85% or better is passing.... they want everyone to have high GPA's and "fail" people. Give me a C+ average nurse who can think over an A+...

  13. Good-bye UT-A. Hello WGU.

    SweettartRN replied to KrysyRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Klone, thanks for the

  14. Good-bye UT-A. Hello WGU.

    SweettartRN replied to KrysyRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Yes as previously stated, I have my ASN. I have completed a nutrition class, however, they said it wasn't a full 3 credits (or whatever it needs to be) and I will simply have to re-take it again. I...

  15. GCU or American Sentinel?

    SweettartRN replied to melisgood's topic in Online Distance Learning

    American Sentinel is not regionally accredited so if you transfer anywhere, they may not accept those transfer

  16. Good-bye UT-A. Hello WGU.

    SweettartRN replied to KrysyRN's topic in Western Governors University

    betterme- they agreed to take partial transfer of those classes so all i will need to complete will be the lab portions of each. i also have to do nutrition (easy!!) and biochem and then all i have...

  17. Good-bye UT-A. Hello WGU.

    SweettartRN replied to KrysyRN's topic in Western Governors University

    See you in school- I start next week Thursday and can't wait. My goal is to be done with my BSN by

  18. Input How to get Hired

    SweettartRN replied to FutureRN_NP's topic in General Nursing

    A lot of people will flame me for this but I recommend this: 1.) do a google and find all the local home health agencies, hospitals, nursing homes, etc in your area. Put together a spreadsheet of...

  19. Transferred to WGU today

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    It's official. WGU absolutely will not accept Excelsior A&P and Micro. They claim it has to do with their accreditation status but I call BS. If I have already taken the class I do not see why I...

  20. Transferred to WGU today

    SweettartRN posted a topic in Western Governors University

    I just couldn't take Indiana Wesleyan anymore. I could kick myself for going through them in the first place; I could be done with WGU by now. Regardless, I will be starting on September 1, and hope...

  21. Transferred to WGU today

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Just wanted to give everyone a head's up. My advisor today suggested that it might be a fluke that my Excelsior classes weren't accepted because he said he has never seen this before. I should hear...

  22. Transferred to WGU today

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Yes, but I can take it through WGU free, as part of my 6 month coursework so why would I pay extra to do that? That makes no

  23. Transferred to WGU today

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    They said they didn't have labs ANC ouldnr accept them. I am not clear how WGU is going to provide labs either and have asked for a long clarification regarding all of

  24. Transferred to WGU today

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Nope. They were competency based exams. Which, WGU is also competency based so I am not really clearing why this change has been

  25. Transferred to WGU today

    SweettartRN replied to SweettartRN's topic in Western Governors University

    No worries and I too am wondering how they plan to pull that out of a hat. If their program is competency based how can they not accept credit from a competency based program themselves? Pot meet...
