stevenking BSN, RN

Congrats! I am about to embark on this challenge. Could you message me your email...I want to better understand time commitments.

Hello, I am completing an unaccredited ADN which is approved in Florida to allow taking the NCLEX. Do RN to BSN programs (or higher) exist that permit entry with an unencumbered RN + BA in a different field? Kindly, Steven King, L...

Yes, I entered the American College of Education's RN to BSN program after completing a unaccredited ADN program in Florida. I just attained my CCNE accredited BSN. Send me a message and I will send information via email.

Hello, Is anyone aware of affordable BSN to DNP programs? I am eyeballing Liberty's DNP program, especially since I am former military (tuition is $300/hr). While I would enjoy a Mental Health Practitioner specialization it is $1200/hr. Yik...

Which track are you looking at? I am interested in a BSN to DNP program.

Upfront, I'll admit I'm jaded. Incivility is never appropriate; however, life is tough. I cut my teeth in nursing in the United States Army, first becoming an LPN/EMT under their tutelage. One benefit of such an approach (besides the incentive t...

I completed an LPN to ADN program and successfully sat for the RN NCLEX on 7/6. I passed in 75 questions: My strategy: 1) Archer review, average of 300 questions/daily 2) I purchased and read Michael Reid's CliffsNotes NCLEX-RN Cram Pl...

I took the NCLEX today and it shut off at 75 questions. I got this pop up…should I be optimistic?

I suspect the program is too new for such review. I believe I was in the second graduating class.

Update: Steven King, RN as of 7/7/22

Yes! Called the BON and confirmed I am now an RN!

There is one objective: pass. After the course is over none of it matters…

Yes, I’m married to a physician who loves it here & tolerates my absorption of graduate education. Since I am eyeballing upward mobility eventually, I “might” stick it out at UTA s/p RN to complete their RN-MSN program with an accredited BSN...

Thank you, quite an informative post. I am attending Educare Envision School of Nursing’s PN to ADN bridge… Preliminary discussion suggests that I shan’t have issues enrolling in UTA’s RN to BSN program subsequently.

Thank you. I assure you that I will zealously prepare for the NCLEX. ? For what it’s worth, the school was started by a doctorally trained RN who was a long time faculty member at a competitive school. I have no doubt that accreditation looms on...

I am in communication with the University of Texas at Arlington. An unaccredited degree does not prevent admission, especially if you have other sources of undergraduate credit in transfer.

Hello, I am interested in completing my RN and need a solid program in Florida. I live in Melbourne/Viera. Have looked at ISU LPN to BSN, Excelsior's ADN... Are there others I am missing? -Steve

Do you like the Indiana program? did you buy the study guides for the four exams?

Hello Fellow Forum Members, I have decided to enroll in the Indiana State U LPN to BSN program. I am very interested in corresponding with current students or graduates of the program. I am specifically interested in learning more about the self-arr...

Sure, then you're transfer guy with reciprocity. Yes, transfer by reciprocity. *note* check with State Board of Licensing in Cali...they can answer reciprocity related questions...like, "Hey, I got my BSN in blah, blah, blah...can I transfer to Ca...

You would take the test in the same state where you performed your clinicals and then would apply reciprocity if you moved.

They have NEVER referred me to CN Ask your hubby to show you where the Education Office is on base. You can take CLEP's and DSST's there to obtain credit. CN must have info not available to other people. A BSN degree from ISU would gain licensu...

As I understand it, Rue is only an educational aide - not an educational institution. They provide study materials for self study programs...like the one offered by Excelsior College.

Yes, it makes perfect sense. I don't think there is an agreement with Texas [...think states which border IN...]. Either way, good luck! Steven King Just got out of the Army [translation: no Iraq for moi...]
