Strighterline w/ Chamberlain

I believe that chamberlain will only accept 1 or 2 transferred classes if started at the same time or after starting chamberlain. They are also very picky about the science class transfers. I would check with your student services advisor and get a form that will get signed by the dean showing approval of the transfer classes. You'll also need to show the class syllabus for approval.

I got accepted and will be starting in September. I started two classes with Straigterline. I had to get the classes approved through Student Registrar prior to starting. I completed most of my gen eds but have just a few outstanding. I am taking Advanced Comp and Microbiology. The Microbiology class is literally reading the assigned chapters and doing the tests. Although the classes are self paced, I can see how they can take longer than anticipated. I think it takes about a week for the registrar to confirm that you can take those classes and you also have to register for the classes before Chamberlain classes start. If you are starting in September, I would hurry up on this because I personally would hate to do two classes on Straighterline plus Chamberlain work at the same time.

Hey,

I transferred around 12 classes to Chamberlain from Straighterline , including a few science ones. You must get a 76 and up in the gen ones and an 80 in science classes (both lab and lecture Straighterline class). The Straighterline classes were a breeze, and I could finish a whole class in a day or 2 by just doing the quizzes and then the finals. Please do as much as you can, I regret not doing more classes with them to save time and money at chamberlain. Chamberlain did not let me transfer anything more once I got accepted because it was too class to the class start dates. The science classes will take a few weeks because you have to order lab kits and do the long worksheets and take pics as well.

let me know if you have questions.

Hello, how about Algebra? Chamberlain's algebra is 4 credit. Do they accept the 3 credit hour of College Algebra from Straighterliner or from other school?

I missed to include this in asking a question earlier.

Thank you!

Hi there! I’m taking a lot of my classes with straighterline currently aiming for admission next year and Chamberlain is one of choices. Do they have a limit to how many you can transfer from Straighterline? I’m happy to hear you were able to get credit for 10 classes, that’s awesome. That’s about the amount I’m finishing as well. How do you like Chamberlain? The curriculum and the schedule? Clinical options? Thank you in advance and I hope school is going well for you.

Hello! That's awesome that you're progressing in your nursing journey, I know you will do great! There is no limit to the prereqs you can transfer, in fact my sister just started last fall with Chamberlain too and they took every single prerequisite from Straighterline except nutrition because it had to be a nutrition for healthcare. So she was able to go right in to nursing classes, woohoo! At the minimum, the program would be 2 years and 4 months. Everything went well for me, I just had to do my own Youtube refresh about A&P stuff in my early nursing classes like patho. 

As far as Chamberlain itself goes, I am a senior now and am looking to graduate by the end of this year. Overall, it's been a positive experience and I have learned so much. I would just say that is not for the faint of heart. The classes are accelerated (8 weeks) and there are few breaks. Every week there is a lot of content that you are expected to learn/retain, so be prepared to constantly be studying and preparing for classes/quizzes/tests/simulations/clinicals. You have to make a schedule that works for you and stick to it. Many who couldn't keep up were just not able to prioritize the program to the extent that is needed, in my opinion. The teachers are okay to me, but we teach ourselves a lot of what you need to know. Also, the program is pretty pricey. If you can find somewhere cheaper that will accept classes from chamberlain, I would recommend that.

The clinicals are going fine, I am grateful we haven't missed out on them since the pandemic started. I have really learned a lot.

Hope that helped, let me know if you have any more questions!
