WGU-MSN Transfer Credits for FNP

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Updated:   Published

I'm currently finishing up MSN (Leadership and Management) at and starting to look for FNP certificate programs. Has anyone recently graduated from WGU and gone on to another university where they accepted most of your credits? If so, what was accepted, where did you go, and how do/did you like the program?

TIA

What would you like to know? I have nothing but positive things to say about the WGU BSN and MSN programs. Without their flexibility, I would not have been able to complete another degree as a single mom working a full time night shift job.

How did it take for you to complete the MSN program ? How many classes did you take at one time ?

Students only take one course at a time, but some courses can be completed in a day; it's totally dependant on your strengths and weaknesses. I completed the MSN in 14 months, but some have done it much faster. I chose to have more family time than study time.

Thank you. I just noticed my typo. I meant how long? Luckily you understood what I meant lol. I’m planning on starting in November of this year. I hope I can finish by June 2021 or sooner.

I def need a balance. I hope I am making the right decision.

Go at your own pace. Don't worry about what others are saying (many people lie about their progress) or doing, just do what's right for you and your family.

It can be challenging, but it's definitely worth it! Good luck!!! ?
