How long did it take you to finish? I am a little bit nervous, but if everything goes well, I will be starting by the end of this month

Far, far more complaints that you'll ever find at your average bricks & mortar school. Even if the program is totally legit (and I do have serious doubts about that), you'll have a career-long problem to deal with. The issue is that a good portion of HR professionals & managers view UofP with a high degree of skepticism (along with DeVry, ITT-tech and the like). I strongly encourage you to do a massive amount of investigating before you sign up or pay them any money. GrnTea's links are a great place to start.

I think you are much safer going with a tried-and-true bricks-and-mortar university (there are plenty of traditional schools that offer fully online bridge degrees). The tuition will be a lot less, you will find it quite easy to get into a bridge program (getting your RN was the hard part!), and the degree will be much more respected in the marketplace.

I am interested in their stats course, particularly HCS 438. Feedback please! I need the easiest stats course I can find. Thanks.
