Once they had all the transcripts it was relatively quick for me. Maybe a week

I applied to the post-masters FNP track for spring of 2018. Submitted my application about a month ago.

So I have zero experience in informatics or anything related. I've just been a floor nurse for a few years but I am very interested in informatics. Would this be a problem?

I have been working part time on a med/surg unit for two years now. I am interested in becoming an FNP. My father (who is an MD) thinks I need to work in an ICU or ER before applying because he thinks med/surg isn't enough (or right type?) experience. I am wondering if what he says is true and wondering where people have worked and how long and were still accepted into an FNP program. I am not really interested in working in either as I am happy with med/surg.

I've had no issues using my older MacBook. Safari works fine as well as the other browsers

Just started this class. Not really liking it so far.

I am currently working towards my BSN to MSN Leadership at WGU. My plan is to do post masters FNP or DNP. I just started though. I've looked around this forum and seen others who have done it or who are currently doing it.

Yeah they do need more. But hey I'm down to 106 [emoji106]🏻

Submitted my first task last night (professional presence and influence). In the end I probably used the COS about half the time. I certainly didn't use it for everything. Now the waiting game. I was 315 in line

My goal is speed too but I do want to learn something along the way. I'd like to be done in two terms but this first course (professional presence and influence) is giving me hell. So hopefully I can get it figured out soon. My ultimate goal would be two courses a month but not looking likely

AtHomeNurse you do have some valid points. Better to get something out of it rather than nothing

The articles in the COS make no sense to me. I can see why everyone says go straight to the task.

When I applied they told me I may not get into February due to mentor shortages but I got lucky I guess

Yeah I expect that mine will come back too the first time

Have you heard back yet? I'm working away in my task right now. Did you write a paper or make a PowerPoint?

That's really strange I'm sorry there has been annissue

Have you contacted WGU?

Are you in the RN to MSN or BSN to MSN?

I'm starting with professional presence and influence. Is the older adult course even an MSN course?

I was told that I'd be assigned one the day before class started but she ended up contacting me about a week and a half ago. Maybe it depends on the mentor on when they end up contacting the student

I have a mentor too

How far along are you in the program featherzRN?

Let me know how you do. I'm starting on February 1st and maybe we could help each other out

Good to know. I start in a couple weeks with the same program as the OP

Don't you need to read to articles to help contribute to the body of your paper?
