Hello! He explained that the medical center would prefer nurse candidates from universities with regional accreditation. I've read before that some employers overlook schools, like Aspen.

Hello, I finished the RN to BSN program in April 2019. I enjoyed the program in the fact that it allowed me to continue to work full time. I love the monthly payments. I liked the forums which allows students to somewhat interact with other students. I did not like writing papers each week but that comes along with the territory. And then it comes down to accreditation. I had hesitations about their accreditation too. My old employer/supervisor told me that if I decided to work in our medical center (Houston) I would be overlooked because of my Aspen degree. I didn't care about that because I didn't want to work in the medical center. I work in disease management with insurance companies, in which I was hired with my Aspen degree without any problems. I'm considering going back for the MSN- admin and management program. I think the school is a great option. Just weigh your pros and cons. Call around as you have. (Assuming you have not applied yet-if so disregard all this?)...let me know what you have decided?

Hello all! I'm interested in completing my BSN. Two of my coworkers have completed their BSN through Grand Canyon Univ, and have suggested I give them a call. Has anyone recently graduated from GCU? Or any other online program? I want to know pros, cons, costs, etc before I make a decision. I've briefly talked to them but would welcome other's experiences...Thanks
