  1. Number 1 in the queue! Gah!

    The taskstream gods smiled upon me. passed! done!! graduation application
  2. Again, thanks so much for the information. I'm really trying to weigh out whether to jump back into school or take some time off. It sounds like the WGU MSN is probably doable for me, even with my...
  3. Number 1 in the queue! Gah!

    yes, thanks to the queue thing now, I too have become a taskstream stalker. It wasn't so bad when I still had additional classes or tasks to continue on with, as that would draw my attention away...
  4. Thank you so much. I will really like to hear what you find out. I have a complicated personal life due to illness in the family that requires me to work basically two full-time jobs most of the...
  5. I am starting my WGU RN-BSN coursework June 1 (a little over a month away). I would like to use that month to start studying up on some of the material I will be seeing when I start the program (in...
  6. I have a question about the 90-hour community health practicum. Does WGU require that you perform this task within the community of your residence, or are you allowed to choose a community? In my...
  7. WGU community health question

    I just wanted to follow up since I submitted the task 3 paper. I figured somebody might have the same question I did and come accross this. When preparing for this paper, as my original post...
  8. Rn-bsn or rn-msn

    the details of my my life have been a little messy as well, so I opted to do the BSN first. I figure if I get the BSN and then am unable to finish the MSN, at least I've got something to show for my...
  9. WGU community health question

    Thanks so much! that makes sense and makes me feel a little better. I will play around with microsoft word and see if I can figure it
  10. So, I feel a little funny asking this, as I am already four classes into WGU. But, everything I have done so far has been objective assessment tests. I am taking my first Performance Assessment...
  11. thank you so much skookrn. That all makes perfect sense. yes, I do know how to find the rubrics. I just didn't want to look/feel dumb if I completed all of the papers and stuff to then find out...
  12. I did Microbiology and A&P through Excelsior, both without labs. I am in my first term at WGU and I am having to retake Microbiology with Lab completely, and I have to take Physiology and A&P...
  13. ADN OR BSN

    Further, If I can add a couple of other thoughts.... If you are in school, and making decent grades, and moving forward with your education, you are absolutely not a failure. You have to let go of...
  14. ADN OR BSN

    Here's my story....if it helps.... -Bachelors Degree in Economics 2002 -business world 2002-2007, owned a business some of that time -volunteer firefighting because I was bored, and became an...
  15. RN-BSN June 1st start

    I finished the orientation stuff 4 days ago, and I have access to course materials and things under "my degree plan", but I have not heard from my Mentor yet either. I assume the mentor answers this...
  16. RN-BSN June 1st start

    I am lined up for June 1 as
  17. Accredited Online LPN school in MI

    If you are not yet licensed as a nurse (whether RN or LPN/LVN), gaining initial licensure online is almost non-existent. I believe there may be a few newer programs out there where you do your...
  18. I know this is an old post, but I will chime in.... I completed my LVN-RN transition through Excelsior in 2011. It took me 14 months, including the time to study and take the CPNE. I live in Texas,...
  19. I have to take micro with lab and A&P with lab because I did both of those with Excelsior without labs.... But, since I feel pretty strong about my knowledge in these areas, I am not dreading it...
  20. Unique question...... has anybody out there done Excelsior for their RN and then WGU for BSN/MSN after having done anatomy & physiology and microbiology at Excelsior? A&P and Micro are done...
  21. Since I wrote this previous comment, I have gotten my official transcript evaluation. So, here is the final answer on this question currently. I have to take the full microbiology class and...
  22. There is a FNP in my hospital who did Ball State University's online FNP program a couple of years ago, and she has been helpful in answering a lot of my questions. Then I have a family friend who...
  23. OP, glad you made some good progress on the re-evaluations. Good luck with everything! I am shooting to start June 1 myself. Considering going for the MSN as well instead of just the BSN. As...
  24. so if you take longer than six months to finish, and have to roll over into a second term, you pay for the whole second term ($3300+), right? Even if you only have a couple of credits left, you still...
  25. I know. The whole reason I did Excelsior was due to time limitations.....family, 2 jobs, etc. I was never going to find my way into a traditional classroom program to bridge from LVN to RN. So, the...
