  1. Has anyone done the WGU online RN to BSN program?

    hereshoping replied to mightymitern's topic in Western Governors University

    I hate to be a downer, but in the WGU BSN online "community", there is a statement at the top of the page that specifically states that nursing students must maintain employment in the nursing...

    Hi - I'm in my final quarter - right now it's wine colored Cherokee scrubs (I don't have the exact style number with me); they will give you that information at orientation. Shoes were not specific;...

    Unless things have changed from last year, you will need the second volume - it is very helpful for skills lab, as it takes you step-by-step through the

    Breathe! I just completed year 1 with a teenager and a pre-teen! If you have a concern, ask the faculty - they are there to help you succeed! I am far more confident going into year 2, now that I know...

    Ccchristine5, if you're asking me, my cumulative GPA was 3.76; however, BC does not use GPA as a deciding factor. Unless it is changing this year, your TEAS score is the deciding factor. If there is...

    I'm just going to chime in and say, the ATI study guide was VERY valuable to me, and I wouldn't have gotten in without it (at least for fall). I'm just about finished first quarter at BC, and am...

    Thanks for the updates, Jeremy! I felt the same way - in a hurry to sign squares/get squares signed, and not really getting a chance to "meet" people. Oh well, you're right...we'll all know each...

    Can't believe it's almost time to get started! Sent my kids back to school this week, thinking, wow, only 2 weeks to go!! Everyone keeps asking me if I'm ready - I suppose I'm ready as I'll ever

    For those starting in winter, lessons learned already!!! I went to get started on the modules, and realized I completely missed one of the required textbooks on our list! LOL! I consider myself...

    Hi Margritamix! We had an orientation in June, where we were told we would receive the first couple of modules before school started. We received an email recently with the first 2 modules for the...

    Hey guys...it's been pretty quiet here lately! Just a heads up, in case you don't have your scrubs yet: I just stopped in at Life Uniforms (happened to be in the area, so thought I'd drop in and...

    I'm pretty sure we have to follow the regular BC guidelines. Unless you are on fin. aid/loans; then call the fin. aid office and request a defer; that will keep you registered until the funds come...

    Actually, I believe this is just the book (correct me if I'm wrong!!!) Videos are separate on Amazon, though if you purchase as a package from the publisher's website, you can get a bit of a better...

    I'm unable to get to my paperwork right now; is this book in addition to the list we received, or does it replace something on that list? Wow, I've already allocated a huge basket for all my books and...

    Yep, best to check on it and get the final word from Chie - I can't get to that information right now, but I think that's what I recall being said. Something about financial aid having to use a...

    Hmm IIRC, we were only supposed to get them from the bookstore if we're on financial aid. If we're self-pay, I think we just pay for them either at our next orientation meeting (a week before we...

    Hi Grownuprosie! Any pointers/advice to us "newbies" would be greatly appreciated! We have our clinical information for fall quarter (VA); what types of clinicals have you done since? Have there been...

    Hi BeeDub! My opinion is, after orientation, that if you have a boss who is VERY flexible and/or you are only planning on working weekends, it might work for you. We were told not to plan to work...

    Great idea on the wishlist! The list says 12th edition for the Davis' drug guide - I'm assuming that getting the newer edition will only help us in the long run, correct? I used the Kindle edition in...

    LOL "here shopping" wouldn't be very far from the truth! We used studyblue for flashcards only - not sure if there were other applications or not, but with micro and A and P, I felt that flashcards...
