RN to BSN programs, CSUSM vs PLNU

Hey,

I am a third semester nursing student in the SDCC ADN program, I am currently enrolled in the PLNU dual acceptance program to start working on my BSN. However, I can still decide to go to CSUSM if I decide to. The thing is, PLNU would be one class a week for $16,000 total including books and would be 15 months. CSUSM would be about $11,000 (not sure if the includes books) and would be about 14 months. I'm just trying to get any information or reviews on each school so I can make my decision. Any info will help! Thanks.

    Hi.

    Sorry I can't offer any help in which to choose I will be considering them both as well.. But I was wondering what this "dual acceptance" thing was I haven't seen anything about it. On PLNU website.

    Thanks

    Hello My sister in law is in the PLNU she doesn't like it and complains and wants to quite the entire time she's been enrolled. My sister did the program she just stuck it out though. I would look into the other options, I was told that they are mean to you the instructors, there is a lot of homework so you go to class and waste a lot of time when you can be doing homework. I would look into other programs as much as you pay I don't think there should be that much complaining.
