SNHU online RN-BSN

Kathleen-RN · Jul 13, 2014

Was wondering how your studies are going at SNHU? I am thinking of applying there and would like any information you could share.

Hope someone out there going to SNHU will respond to post. I'm looking at their online RN to BSN program and would like any feedback if possible on this program. Thanks for any help.

Hi cburton21,

I have now completed three of the RN-BSN classes with a remaining of two classes to go. It has been a great experience. It does take a personal commitment but it is totally doable while working full time. I have found the program so far very informative and pertinent to the current nursing issues.

There are discussion posts, papers, group projects, etc., as in any of the other programs. If you decide to attend SNHU you will not be disappointed.

Hi bugsrn!

I am glad to hear that you are enjoying the program. Do you know when SNHU is scheduled to have a site visit for their CCNE accreditation? I really like the format of this program, but am concerned about the lack of CCNE accreditation.

Thanks in advance!

The accreditation is going to be complete this October/November, they have already had site visits. All degrees completed prior to this date will be considered CCNE approved. I plan on finishing my BSN in February :)

Hi Bugs RN, I have been accepted to SNHU as of today. I'm trying to decide between this program and another. I will need to take statistics. Just wondering if you or anyone you know have needed to take this course and how difficult was it. Also I was told I could test out of nutrition. How are your nursing classes going? Are there a lot of group projects? Anything you can tell me would be very helpful. Thank you so much, CBurton21

I applied as well and am looking to start in the Spring. Anyone test out of nutrition? Wondering if there are any study tips and how hard is the exam?

Thanks!

I will be applying to the SNHU online RN-BSN program for the Jan. 2015 start date once the program is accredited. I'm also applying to Quinnipiac University for their online RN-BSN program. I take my NCLEX in 22 days!

I graduated with my BSN from SNHU. It's a great program, intense but workable. I wasn't crazy about the group work but it was really only a small portion of the assignments. The professors are very helpful, but know your APA formatting as there is a lot of writing involved. The program is now CCNE accredited and retroactive for past graduates. I am very happy I chose this school.

HI, I am starting statistics there in a week. Did you take it online? If so how was it??I'm nervous. It's been a while since I've done math in a school setting. Especially online. Thanks!

I am getting ready to start my first RN to BSN online course at SNHU. I am just curious if you could share about how many hours per week you had to commit to class work. I am taking the six required classes in 10 week increments. Like others, I am working full time, have a family and am trying to plan ahead as to how to best organize my studies. Thanks!

I am eager to hear caddywompus's reply as well. I really like the setup of the SNHU program and have narrowed down my RN-BSN selection to SNHU and WGU. While I like the price of WGU, I prefer the streamlined curriculum and standard grading system of SNHU.

By the way, I thought only five 6-credit nursing classes were required. I'm hoping the 6th class is stats, which I've already taken.

Good luck!
