RN to BSN at University of Phoenix?

Nursing Students School Programs

Updated:   Published

Hey everyone, my very first post but a long time observer at this forum.

I graduated earlier this year in June with an ASN degree and now looking to work on my BSN, seeing how the job hunt

is going nowhere for me. I tried to apply at San Jose State University here in Ca., but they've put a lock on the Fall 2010 semester. Now I am looking at the University of Phoenix online option. I was wondering if anyone here taken the RN to BSN route at University of Phoenix, either online or on-campus? I know they're approved by the CA BRN, but I want to know how good are the instructors and their curriculum? Basically any information would be helpful at this point. Thanks alot!

I have a friend that went to Phoenix for 3 years. Now she is wanting to transfer to another school, and they want her to pay them $8,000 if she wants to drop (an issue with how they request FAFSA money in advance). Phoenix has a bad history when it comes to money, but she loved the education she received. She is just transferring because she can finish her degree quicker and cheaper somewhere else.

There is no difference for me between a college and a business.

Specializes in Nephrology, Cardiology, ER, ICU.

I can say that my experience with UofP was positive. Don't know about anyone else. I did the ADN to BSN and then MSN from 2002 to 2005.

I've now got one post-MSN certificates as an adult health CNS and soon will have another as a peds CNS and have had no problem whatsoever transferring credits or getting a job.
