Hey all. I'm pretty sure there might be a topic about this already, but I'm hoping I can get previous students who took the MSN/MBA program at GCU to shed some light on their experience. I spoke to a counselor and basically all the requirements needed for the program is a valid RN license - no minimum RN experience, no GRE. I can also start as soon as next month if I wanted, and even finish earlier than the anticipated graduation date. I have my BSN and only around 7 months RN experience. I know it's early to look into MSN programs, but the idea of knowing that I can start my MSN now instead of waiting is definitely appealing. Can anyone who has taken this specific program share their experience? Also, can you share where these degrees have taken you in your career? Thank you in advance!

Hello all! I am new to this forum and had a lot of questions about the application process for nursing school, specifically SF state's program. I'm planning on applying to their Spring 2017 program, but have heard mixed reviews about it. Is there anyone currently in their nursing program that can shed any light on it? I've heard that it's very difficult to get classes, making it almost impossible to finish the program in the advertised 2 years (takes more like 3 years). I've also heard that due to the high demand of classes and lack of availability, students end up transferring out. My current GPA is 3.57 and I scored a 81.3% on the TEAS. I also work as a Medical Assistant for 4 years now, ranging in different types of specialties/clinics. My grades aren't as competitive as what I would like it to be, but I'm hoping that my work experience makes up for it. Should I retake my TEAS test to try and get a higher score? If you're applying to the program, put your stats below! Thank you all for your input!
