Anyone has done the RN-BSN program at UM?
if so, what do you think about it?
UM- university of miami
ok. I have no responses for this thread, but I still have not met anyone who has gone to the RN-bSN program at UM.
Eventhough I would LOVE to be a UM graduate,
they are quite expensive. and my budget is only$4,000K per year.
That would mean that according to my budget, I would only be taking one class per year!!! that is crazy!!
this is from the www.miami.edu website: the schoo'ls website.
UNDERGRADUATES (ALL COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS)
Number of CreditsTuition (per semester)One$1,350.00Two$2,700.00Three$4,050.00
okay, here it is. I found Barry University tuition and fees.
TUITION
UNDERGRADUATE Full-time, 12-18 credits per semester **
12,250.00
Part-time, per credit
720.00
Credit in excess of 18, per credit
that is really expensive as well......
so I meet lots of RN's who go to private school for their BSN but i guess they end up with lots of loans.
I am just going to do whatever FIU wants me to do. A state school has to be least expensive than this!
here is FIU:
Tuition for Undergraduate courses in The College of Arts and Sciences, The College of Business, The College of Education, The College of Engineering and Computing, The College of Nursing and Health Sciences, The College of Social Work, Justice, and Public Affairs, The School of Journalism & Mass Communication, and The Stempel School of Public Health fully online and hybrid course offerings are as follows:

In addition to your regular tuition and university fees the following fees apply:

$300 or $750?? hummm....... $300 please!

I went to Barry University for my BSN. Barry offers a 30% discount to RN's to obtain their BSN. I loved their program. I looked at UM and FIU at the time and got all the pre-reqs for all 3 schools however, in the long run, an opportunity to go to Barry arised and that's where I chose. Good luck with whatever you decide.
nice!
so is that 30% discount for every credit I suppose?

I believe that is 30% discount for the entire program but to be honest, I'm not sure......sometimers has set in and it's been a few years since I went to Barry.
that's great.
right now, it's looking more towards FIU. it's online and least expensive from all the other programs.
For the RN-BSN program, is it required to do clinicals like the ASN-RN degree?
The only clinical I had to do in my BSN program was Community Health. We went to several different community programs in Miami. One was at a senior center in Homestead where we took blood pressures. Other than that, I can't recall doing any other clinicals.
