Hi guys. Just got my evaluation done today and has 37 credits to complete the RN-BSN program.
I graduated from Excelsior College so I am used to self-paced program.
I plan to finish in one year but hope to finish quicker. I finished Excelsior LPN-RN program in 9-10 months so I am hoping to finish this program in that time frame as well or maybe even quicker haha.
Is there anything I can do now to be prepared before April 1st comes?
Thanks!! [emoji41][emoji41]

Not me, because I start March 1st for RN-MSN/Leadership and Management. :)
Just had transcript review and intake interview last night. 67cu to go, 80 transferred (30 for actual courses, 50 for having RN license). Was told once I make first payment (by the 22nd), my orientation will be unlocked.
I plan to spend the time before my start date finishing up unfinished projects so I won't have as many unnecessary distractions. (e.g. I plan to finish my 2015 taxes and work on an ongoing Marie Kondo style sorting and organizing project). Beyond that enjoy your freedom so you start off refreshed when 4/1 comes.
Good luck to you!

Just got off the phone with my counselor. I will be starting April 1st! After waiting forever... my original start date was Dec 1 2015, but enrollment was stopped for NC residents, thankfully I just moved just across the state line so now I'm eligible again!!!!

Working on starting April 1st. Just trying to get financial planning. Anyone have advice or ideas on how they will pay for schooling? I applied for financial aid but not sure what I will get.

I applied but I'm waiting on transcript review. I am super paranoid about the statistics course!!! I have watched YouTube videos lik "statistics for dummies" and it is all foreign to me. I'm really worried this will kill my chances for a BSN degree. [emoji24]

The worst thing about statistics is that everyone is scared of it. It's really not that bad. Whatever you do don't procrastinate it, just go for it!
good luck to you all, I'm 7 credits from finishing. It's a good program, just focus and go one step at a time!
