I transferred from Maryville about a year ago. VERY disorganized, teachers were nonexistent and ridiculous amount of papers, group projects and presentations with very little direction and no clarification. The teachers didn't know what was expected ...

My response was to the hobbitrn who was disgruntled that walden doesn't help with preceptors. As I said previously, not even a prestigious school such as Vanderbilt arranges preceptors for their distance students. This is not specific to walden. On a...

As a side note, I would hope the education from a prestigious university such as Yale or Vanderbilt would provide a better education and more assistance to their students. You will pay an average of 4 times more to go there, and you will get the exac...

I also go to Walden and although I agree that they are not very helpful with practicum placement support (and never return calls/approve practicums etc) I have talked to a lot of other MSN students including those going to the local State University ...

Mark do you know how many people have graduated so far and how many have passed/failed etc.? Two classes have graduated so far right?

I took Health assess and patho together this summer. I work part-time and have a new baby and teenagers. It pretty much ruined my summer. no life whatsoever but totally do-able. I got A's. I am taking pharm by itself right now. I I don't think you co...

I'm also attending Walden and it seems like a good program (in my 3rd qtr). I echo what someone said earlier, the advisors don't always know what they are talking about. Just call the admin if you have real questions about clinicals, plan of study et...

Also, both Maryville and Walden hiked up prices (from what I was originally quoted) after I started the program. However, Walden offered a 20% discount for current students so that was nice.

I started out at Maryville but after one semester I transferred to Walden. So, far I love Walden (for the most part, there's always going to be little glitches). The teachers have been great and its laid out really well. The advisors don't always kno...

I was enrolled there I went for one semester and then switched to another University. There was about 5 people who switched at the same time as me and there have been a lot of frustrations from students who stayed related to the disorganization of a ...

I switched to Walden and absolutely LOVE it. The education has been wonderful, teachers are awesome, advisors are awesome and the work is adequate but not overwhelming. The price is right too. I can't say enough good things. I have completed two clas...

I just started Dec 3rd too. Classes are well organized and I'm really enjoying it.

There's a huge amount of papers. No tests. Group papers every week, you work on one large project for the whole class throughout the class, little sections are due each week and usually a paper or something due in addition. Then discussion boards eve...

Each teacher wants something different and those that are lucky can get a hold of their teacher or their teacher is more cear about their expectations, although the assignments aren't. My teacher is very unclear. The first class was also unclear and ...

To all those who were wondering about the program. It has so many glitches and the assignments are pretty unclear, teachers expect somethng different but its not specified, the first class was alright, second class terrible. I'm going to switch to an...

I don't know if I already commented on this thread or not. But I'm currently in another FNP program and am thinking of switching to Walden's. Its cheaper and I'm not very happy with the level of education I am receiving at the other program. I can al...

Hi I am looking into Walden's new FNP program. I am currently enrolled in another FNP program but it is a new online program. I know that Walden's FNP is a new program but I also know they have been doing distance learning in other areas for many yea...

Walden just started an FNP program. I am currently in an FNP program at a different school and it is a new online program and the teachers are very indifferent and difficult to communicate with. I am worried that its because its a new online program....

I also really like the 8 week format. It seems like in a class that's kind of boring (like the theory class) 8 weeks is pretty do-able and then you're onto something else.

We're just doing a theory class. Its time consuming and tedious but not hard and I like the format and the website etc. I have a good teacher though!

Me! Logging on now.

Yea I had to get special permission to take 7 classes. They told me I shouldn't do it, but I wanted to get it done so I could get into NP school this fall, I cut my hours back at work and only worked like 20-30 hrs per week and my kids are older now ...

Hi! I hadn't checked here for a few days. Is there 2 facebook pages? I requested to join the one. I wondered two things: a) can you make it private so no one can see our posts who isn't a member? and b) do you want to approve a few group administrato...
