I actually checked for the BSN and MSN program @ NSU. They are both accredited by CCNE but are up for review this year. My understanding is that the BSN program no longer has NLNAC and that both the BSN & MSN have CCNE accredidation. Please look at the CCNE site for both the bachelors and masters @ NSU. :)

Thanks. I did look at several schools and I think I have made the best choice. I am happy that you got accepted at BCC. I would highly receomend BCC because I feel they really prepare you well for the nursing career. I did the LPN- RN transition online program and it was challenging but I felt well prepared. The teachers can be difficult but if you keep your eyes on the prize you will be just fine.

i decided to go to nsu because i no longer live in florida and i now live in georgia. i first looked at the state universities in georgia and they didn't provide fully online programs or they requested some type of clinical or volunteer hours. in addition; i completed the lpn- rn transition online program at bcc and my former professor is one of the directors of the rn to bsn program. furthermore , they use web ct like bcc , flexible,convient, i have no prerequisites to do, complete program in 18 mths, the state universities in florida said i had to pay out of states cost which is double the state cost. the only downfall is the cost but i am eligible for grants and applying for scholarships’ need to go with is the most convenient for me.

I have been accepted to the RN-BSN online program at NSU. I am excited to get started. I would like to hear some feedback about the program. Has anybody completed this program? Is the program challenging ?

I didn't mean to imply that I had a lot of problems with Nova. I just mean if you want to speed up the process just continue to follow up. I will be starting the RN to BSN online program in August. I look forward to going to Nova.

I agree with you. I applied to the RN -BSN online program and found out about 2wks ago I was accepted. It is so important that you look at the VIP page and if it is not updated to please follow up with them. That is how I found out they didn't receive things.Keep following up with them till you know that they have all your information.

I am glad the information helped. I justed wanted to update you. I have been accepted in the RN to BSN online program at Nova. I will be starting August 2010. I am excited. I hope everything is going well with you. I was just wondering if you got started at atlantic tech.

Hi,I did the LPN program in 1997 at Atlantic Vocational.Than I did the LPN to RN transition at Broward College.I would suggest to do the LPN at Atlantic.Atlantic is a well respected school,the instructors are good,the program can be difficult and some of the instructors are tough.However,when you come out of there -they expect good nurses. A lot of nurses are hired from Atlantic and BCC because they have good reputations for putting out good nurses. For the LPN program -you have to have your GED or highschool diploma and do pass a test that reviews grammar,reading& comprehension and basic math. After you pass that test you are ready to apply for that program.I hope this info helps.
