I am curious and maybe there are students here who can answer.
Has there been any students who have went through National Universities Pre-Licensing BSN program while working full time?
They were an option for me but the way they talk about not working while attending their program leaves them off the list because I am a single mom and must work to keep my home. I am curious if there are any student who made it through while still working full time.
I completely understand how you feel. I don't have a previous bachelors degree but for a long time I was almost anti-ADN. I figured why go to school for 2 years just to get an ADN when I get a BSN in the same amount of time.
It wasn't until I got rejected from NU the first time I applied and almost gave up on nursing that I realized just how much I wanted to be a nurse and I would get there anyway I could, even if it wasn't the way I planned or wanted. But I don't see you having that problem, you'll get into the program you want.
Just a side note have you looked into the entry level masters degree programs? I know UCLA and Charles Drew University have them...
Yes I did look into the ELMSNs problem is the scheduling. I don't think they have any evening at all and they have set schedule for full time. I don't think it would work with my work schedule. I was looking at Azusa Pacific's Program. Just don't see it possible. I wish!
I wish there were more nursing programs that are conducted in the evening or part time. It would definitely be an awesome thing.
Yea, I think most nursing students struggle with finding a schedule that works for them. One of my professors said she did a evening nursing program but that was like 30 years ago and they really don't have evening programs anymore.
Ours isn't too bad, I've had to take a few days off of work here and there but nothing excessive. We'll see if it changes with this upcoming class. New quarter starts in Monday and we still don't have our schedule, they said we'll get it by Sunday...
Wow. Thats very last minute. The regular classes dont do last minute like that. I wonder why they do it in the nursing program. They need better structure when it comes to scheduling. Let me know how the classes workout.
Hello Shondaj! How did it go? were you accepted to WGU. I looking forward to attend the school in January and i just wanted to get some insight as to how they accept students.
