  2. WGU pre licensure

    OliverElio87 replied to Jesse1234's topic in Western Governors University

    I would advise against doing any term breaks. The reason being they may or may not have room for you in the next cohort and you would have to wait for the following cohort to realign. For instance, if...

    OliverElio87 replied to OliverElio87's topic in Western Governors University

    OliverElio87 replied to OliverElio87's topic in Western Governors University

  17. Recently Completed BSN Prelicensure Program

    OliverElio87 replied to OliverElio87's topic in Western Governors University

    1. Utilize the Critical Care class as a pre-NCLEX review. I felt it had a lot of the same content that we have already gone over in med-surg. 2. Roles is basically a comprehensive NCLEX review...

  22. Help! Can I make changes to my CA-BRN application?

    OliverElio87 replied to PizzaObscura's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs
