I have recently finished my RN program at Carrington College and am working now. I am looking into online RN to BSN programs. I want to have my options open. I looked into WGU -pros: some people have finished in 6-9months (although majority finish in a year),cost about 3,000+ per session, they have a MSN program, don't have discussion boards that you need to participate in, flexible with however fast or slow you want to go -cons: I heard (not sure) their classes are pass/fail and if I want to pursue my MSN somewhere else, I will have a hard time finding somewhere that will accept me. Also heard (not sure) that the counselors try to slow you down so you don't finish as fast so they can make more money. When I applied for fafsa it showed they only have a 14% graduation rate Chamberlain -pros: I get a discount because I went to Carrington (it's not that big though), higher graduation rates, people seem to do well in it. -cons: price GCU -pros: not too many tests mainly papers -cons: you can only take a class at a time in the beginning, not very well known I also heard that some state schools like chico and butte accept Carrington Collegee credits , but I am not sure. Anyone went to a online rn-bsn program which one did you go to? about how much was it? how long did it take you? were you full time school/work? would you recommend it?

You don't have to go through their vn program you just take your prerequisites with them if you want but it does not guarantee you admission into their RN program

I have friends that have gone here and none of them were able to work it's a full time program

I love having male coworkers Every male nurse I've met has been so helpful !

I'm a LPN/LVN currently in RN school. I just tell people I am a nurse and when they inquire more I say I'm a licensed nurse.

Hello everyone! I will be graduating from my nursing program ,from carrington,in April 2016. It's an ADN RN program. I am just now starting to look into online BSN programs. I am mainly inquiring about -chamberlin (they offer discounts for carrington students) -western governors university -grand canyon does any one go to these programs that can shed some light on costs, workload, personal experience etc. ofcourse I still have to pass my nclex but I just want to have an idea of online BSN programs just for some piece of mind
