  1. South University FNP MSN program???

    On a side note...I know a police captain who does online teaching. I was talking to her about APA and TurnItIn. She said she has many students who blatantly plagiarize their assignments. When she...
  2. Otoscope/opthalmoscope

    Excellent choice, but I kind of like the idea of having my own tools when I go in to see the patient...what if the one in the room isn't working or it grew wings and flew out its
  3. Get ahead in nursing courses?

    I was away for 2 weeks. I talked with the instructor and turned in the papers due ahead of time. The instructor has a lot of leeway as far as content, but has no recourse over your log-in...

  7. Negotiating NP program in Florida

    Reading your post is so familiar. I had entered into a FNP program, but have now decided to go for the AGNP. As you, I don't really want to work with younger children and live in a community where...
  8. South University FNP MSN program???

    bulldurham6, If you are going for your FNP and can only take one class at a time, it will take you 2 years and 3 months. The only way to do it in 2 years is to double up along the way. With a lower...
  9. South University FNP MSN program???

    I don't know about 108K...is that because you have to go through the entire program from start to finish since you do not have your BSN? I started in the MSN program at the end of March 2013 and will...
  10. BSN Textbooks for NP school?

    Mine have been more in depth than the BSN books. So much so, that I am ordering several to keep as
  11. South University online NP?

    With SU, there are no required campus visits...they send the evaluator to your practicum site. As with any program, the more involved you are directly the more you will learn. They utilize typhon to...
  12. South University online NP?

  13. Why do nurses love for profit schools?

    For many, the "for profit" school allows the nurse the opportunity to obtain the desired goal. If one lives in a rural area where a brick and mortar school is not available, and the state...
  14. South University online NP?

    The design format will be very close to what you are used to. The first part of the program is aimed at the core curriculum, so you will get classes in theory and research as well as nursing. You...
  15. I wish you well, freedomrn1. I hope you find their program more to your liking. I have started my first practicum course with SU. Very full schedule, but expect to learn a lot. Do have 1 online...
  16. Cardnation, as with most online programs, South offers free writing tutors. You upload your paper and they will provide feedback on syntax, grammar, etc. so you can make corrections. Also, when you...
  17. South University online NP?

    1andrea, currently there are no required site visits to the school. This was a big advantage to me. As with any masters program and online, there is a lot of writing. Depending on the class, you...
  18. South University online NP?

    So sorry to hear that your first experience was bad. As I have learned from many people going on to advanced studies...you have some really outstanding instructors, some good instructors, some so-so...
  19. South University

    As you can see from the posts here, most are doing very well with the program. As with all online courses, there is an awful lot of writing. You are in advanced classes, so APA is quite...
  20. What the $$$$$

    Glad to hear you found out what it was all about. Thank you for letting us know. I wonder if they can still do that now that Obamacare is up and running...everyone has to have some type of insurance...
  21. Front Desk Staff

    Problem everywhere, not just to nursing. We have a policy of no personal cell phone use or internet use. Everyone signs it and it has been enforced from time to time. Internet searching can be...
  22. Where to study?

    You need to sit the family down and let them know how much studying is involved and that you need help and cooperation. Studying for anything in the health field takes a LOT of time and effort. They...
  23. MSN online one class at a time

    Several of the core curriculum classes are covered in 5 1/2 weeks, so it cuts the time down. Once you get into the clinical arena, they are all 11-week sessions. If one just took one class per...
