I would like to hear from students of this program, do you recommend it? I can't imagine doing the didactic portion of a Nursing program online and then coming to campus/clinical sites for the rest of the program. Are students graduating from this program confident of their nursing skills and then going on to successfully pass the NCLEX?

I talked to the admissions office at Roseman and they said that the program was regionally accredited. I also found out that this program is a COHORT, so I suppose the program is sort of experimental.

I would love to hear from current or graduated students of this program.

Thanks!

My understanding is that NV campus also does the Pass/no Pass format. They have changed the policy a little bit, where they will be listing a 4.0 on the front of the transcript, but the Ps will still be what show as your grade for each block. This is a problem, since NursingCAS and a lot of schools themselves still consider it an invalid GPA.

The Pass grade thing is interesting... I wonder why they do that? It makes me a little hesitant but I guess it's too soon to say how it might impact people?

I heard from the advisor at NV that confirmed what you said - pass/no pass with 4.0 included. NursingCAS does require you to input your grade but if P=4.0 can't you technically just write "4.0" or I guess it's more of an issue when the system tries to calculate your GPA and freaks out. Ugh I afraid to commit to a school and waste my time if it impedes my ability to apply to schools. She said "students haven't had a problem moving on to Master Degree programs" but who knows.. they could be schoools in the boonies for all I know.

Yeah...that's what they all seem to be saying, but if I were you, I wouldn't want to be the guinea pig, which is essentially what they're expecting you to do since the pass/no pass transcript is a new enough thing that no one has really tried to continue their education yet.

Hi,

Bumping this thread. I was originally planning on going to Roseman and applying for both programs but decided not to. There is a new regionally accredited school in Vegas, Summerlin area called Chamberlain. Though not acclerated, I think it suits me more since I am transferring many classes so my schedule consist only of 1-2 classes per semester. I have applied to both and familiar with the process if anyone has questions & interested in the NV programs lmk.

Hi! I'm a current student in the ABSN program in South Jordan, Utah. I began in October 2016 and will graduate in February 2018. If anyone has any questions about admission requirements/process, the University in general, the program, the curriculum, etc. I would be more than happy to answer. :)

We received a e mail in February saying that are transcripts will have a 4.0 listed on them. So they changed it!

Hi everyone!

I'm looking into applying to Roseman's ABSN program in Henderson for either February 2018 or July 2018. I've read through a majority of the posts and am a bit concerned about what is being said about the transcripts. If I were to go through with this program, I would want to go on to grad school to become a nurse practitioner. Have there been any recent changes other than the fact that the transcript would say 4.0 GPA?

@Nursebee

I'm not too sure what the earlier post in May means but it could have just been changed for them. I was applying for July and August programs & both interviews mentioned that they do a Pass/No Pass. (LV campus) I asked about it during interview and they mention it will be accompanied with a letter stating that it's 4.0. I still find that very sketchy if you plan to go for graduate degree especially outside NV. Pass/No Pass are looked down upon in my opinion. I was no longer interested due to this being a big deal since I plan to go NP in the future. Hope that helps! Your best bet is to ask an advisor yourself.

Yeah I was really interested in the program until I saw the pass/no pass system...

For some schools a pass could be anywhere from an A to a C. Not a good look for graduate school apps.

While I know it may seem kind of weird, I personally know people who have graduated from Roseman's nursing program and are being accepted into NP programs. I know one guy who has accepted into a CRNA program. While the pass/no pass system is weird, Roseman is doing all that it can to ensure students are being given fair shots at opportunities for career and education advancement.
