1. Starting WGU RN-BSN

   kimberlee713 replied to 2shihtzus's topic in Western Governors University

   This was calculated by Loyola when they reviewed my courses from WGU, or you can take your grades, not the final grade, the actual grades themselves, and calculate it. I wasn't notified via email...

2. WGU online programs

   kimberlee713 replied to RNDave's topic in Western Governors University

   Hi Joanie, I didn't take it in an insulting way, I should apologize if my post made it seem that way Competency based just means that you don't receive number grades per se, you still receive a B or...

3. WGU online programs

   kimberlee713 replied to RNDave's topic in Western Governors University

   It's an accredited program, why would there be any problem having it recognized? Non-traditional? Why, because it's online? Duke University, UIC (Chicago) Loyola, etc.....some of the greatest...

4. Starting WGU RN-BSN

   kimberlee713 replied to 2shihtzus's topic in Western Governors University

   Bobby, The classes aren't any different from brick and mortar but they're intense, you're going to actually learn the content or you won't pass. I was really surprised at how much information they...

5. WGU online programs

   kimberlee713 replied to RNDave's topic in Western Governors University

   Hi chris2732, I'm not sure about dual enrollment, the way they structure their didactic, I don't see why they wouldn't allow you to take both tracks but what I'm finding in graduate school is that...

8. Has anyone heard of Western Governor's University?

   kimberlee713 replied to StillHoping's topic in Western Governors University

   Darleneisdarlene, I completed my WGU program in July of this year. Hardest thing I've ever done although I did the whole program in 10 months (NOT recommended!) but you can do it in an accelerated...

9. Pre-filled saline syringes and checking central line blood return

   kimberlee713 replied to greenterra's topic in Patient Safety Issues

   I am a clinical specialist with one of the major manufacturers of the Pre-Filled Saline Syringes. These PF syringes are NOT sterile, only "clean". However, once you remove them from the wrapper,...

10. Has anyone heard of Western Governor's University?

    kimberlee713 replied to StillHoping's topic in Western Governors University

    It is singularly the hardest thing I have ever done because the course content (Competency Based Program remember) makes sure you have a firm grasp of each subject. If WGU says you need 15-20 hours a...

11. Starting WGU RN-BSN

    kimberlee713 replied to 2shihtzus's topic in Western Governors University

    The assessments can only be taken once you have completed your Course of Study for each class. Don't let the wording confuse you, you still have to complete several required tasks and syllabus' for...

12. Has anyone heard of Western Governor's University?

    kimberlee713 replied to StillHoping's topic in Western Governors University

    What most of these posts miss is that if you are already an RN, you have NO clinical requirements in the RN-BSN program, regardless of where you go! As a WGU student, I've already proven that my...

13. 2nd thoughts about WGU

    kimberlee713 replied to 2shihtzus's topic in Western Governors University

    I work with "degree snobs" and as I posted to another, and they aren't getting anything different that you are from WGU. Who cares where it comes from as long as it fits your lifestyle and you are...

14. WGU online programs

    kimberlee713 replied to RNDave's topic in Western Governors University

    WGU does not offer Clinical Nurse Specialist Degrees so you don't have clinical and/or preceptorships. You have a Capstone Project (thesis, scholarly project, etc...) that you have to complete which...

15. Starting WGU RN-BSN

    kimberlee713 replied to 2shihtzus's topic in Western Governors University

    I love WGU so much I moved over to the RN-MSN program. LOVE my mentor, love the school! Any online program is up to YOU what you get out of it. It's meant for the mature student that doesn't need...
