University of Toledo CNL Program

Published

Hello Everyone!

I am applying to the program this Fall. I was wondering if anyone who has been in the program or knows someone who has can speak to me about the how difficult it is to complete the program. I would really like to get my masters degree, but I am worried about my ability to keep up in the program while working. Were you able to work during the program? Did many students fail out of the program? What percentage is a B on the grading scale? I am interested in learning anything you guys are willing to share with me. :)

Your success in this program will depend your writing- English majors consistently did better than biology and nursing undergrads. A B is from 80 -90. CNL is not well respected in bedside nursing. I know some students that worked, but soon dropped their jobs or enrollment.

NW Ohio cranks out over a 1000 RNs every May, so don't plan to work in the area. Of course all levels of the nursing profession are saturated

Good luck.

Also, which courses were the most challenging- clinical or theory?

Can you explain why english majors have an advantage over biology and nursing students? I am not sure I understand how writing influences outcomes. Also why are CNLs not respected?

Specializes in Military medicine, challenged MI LPN.

I would like an explanation as well. This seems like an intimate view of the program, so did lyela complete the program or currently enrolled? Also, the market is always saturated as well as destitute, so thats a hard metric to sale that jobs are not there. Finally, if you work as a CNL what positions are you actually hired for?
