I found out today I got accepted into the bridge program that starts this fall!!! I'm so excited and scared at the same time.

I am also starting the bridge class this fall and hopefully starting the program next year. I’m excited to start and also worried about the price of the program.

Did you register for the bridge course already?

I haven't signed up yet, my advisor called me yesterday and said the week of the 10th i should be assigned a ambassador and then start the sign up process. Yea, I'm worried about cost... I have like 22 months left on my husband's GI bill...but not sure how it works using it a second time.

Hi and congrats! I wanted to give some helpful tips to the people who are starting. Keep in touch frequently with your clinical placement coordinators and get updates. Although USC finds clinical placements for you, there are students held back a semester due to lack of preceptors. The program has some great professors, so far I haven't run into any major problems. There are still many technical difficulties, as most online programs. We use a platform called 2U, started by the founder of the Princeton Review, and is a contracted for profit company specializing in online education. So when you have issues, you won't be contacting USC directly. Just be sure to make that distinction and always tell your professors when you have issues. It is also very difficult to have a job with clinicals, even on a part time schedule. Good luck!

Hi everyone!

I have been admitted to USC summer 2020. I am also waiting to hear back from Alabama's FNP program as well.

Is USC worth the tuition cost? How has the program been since you started?

Thanks in advance!
