Hey there, I'm a RN i am planning to do my BSN at WGU starting in early 2020. Thought id put a new post up for prospective and past students.
Id love to know how the program is structured and what to expect
What order is best to tackle the courses in. Please respond with any knowledge you might have and your experience. Thanks

Hey there,

Are still looking into (or have you started) the RN to BSN program with WGU? I’m in the process of looking into it to maybe begin classes in the summer.

Awesome! I literally just got my transcript evaluation back from WGU like 10 minutes ago and I will most likely be starting in June. I’m interested to hear any tips that anybody may have as well.

James36, how is the program going so far? How quickly are you able to work through the material?

Boy this thread died quick...Does anyone else want to take a break from talking about COVID to talk a little bit about the WGU RN-BSN program??

I start 5/1/20, I am starting at 69.1% complete. I was told I need to complete 12 modules? They don't use credits? Its confusing. I was told I need two 6 month semesters but I want to finish in 6 months.

Hey there,

I start 6/1 and I am currently 65% complete. If you look on your transcript evaluation it should say how many credits you still have to complete. I need to complete 42.

Did you start those mandatory live classes yet, since you are now within a few weeks of your start date?

icycleprincess · Apr 15, 2020

Looks like I have 37 competencies. I am doing financial aid paying today, then orientation, then I believe I can see classes. Not too sure.

Live class starts May 7th, 2 hrs twice a week...

OK sounds good. I’d be happy with completing the program in 2 terms. Are you working full time?
