  1. Looking for an online ADN or BSN

    ShondaJ replied to ayl291's topic in School, College Programs

    Unless your state allows it, I doubt you will find one unless its a RN to BSN. Normally state boards will not take online classes for initial RN program to get licensing. The program is too demanding...

  2. Accelerated Courses in the SoCal Area

    ShondaJ replied to SoCalJulia's topic in California Nursing

    I don't suggest doing 5 week science classes. I am in 8 weeks and they are hard enough. With a family you will be overwhelmed. Also Community colleges have night classes during the fall and summer for...

  4. West Coast University

    ShondaJ replied to ElizabethTonoyan's topic in California Nursing

    You shouldn't talk bad about a school you are not a student of. Everyone has a preference of where they want to attend and what is best for them. It may be pricey but its their choice. No need to say...

  7. West Coast University

    ShondaJ replied to brittaaaaany13's topic in School, College Programs

    I saw the WCU 78.45% compared to the WGU 80%. I don't completely go off their rates because it could be due to a number of reasons. If you skated through and barely passed or if you actually studied...

  9. West Coast University

    ShondaJ replied to brittaaaaany13's topic in School, College Programs

    ShondaJ replied to elinagrigoryan's topic in School, College Programs

    Why go 4 years or so doing an ADN when you can get. BSN in the same amount of time or less. ADN is no longer an option for me now that I know about all the BSN programs that I can get just as fast or...

    ShondaJ replied to ae1021's topic in School, College Programs

    I agree with the ladies. Don't do it. It limits you and your license will always be plagued with that 30 Unit Option on it. Plus your ability to move up and progress in your career will not be great....

  24. Roseman University grad to CRNA

    ShondaJ replied to jpomax's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I don't see why you couldn't. You passed and graduated and you receive a transcript from an accredited school. There should be no problem getting into a CRNA
