I’ll be starting my LPN to ASN in May I will DEFINITELY look into this.
Got any idea which school is best for LPN to RN? Thanks
What school?
A big thing to consider is whether or not these RN-BSN programs are pass or fail, or if you get actual grades. CRNA programs in particular want to see actual grades. But if you’re wanting a BSN just to make yourself look better on a resume, then a pass or fail program will definitely be easier overall
Capella is the best! Cheap, accredited, letter grades and fast. I finished my RN-BSN in 5 weeks
@@nedbass1 Congratulations! please share how it was possible?
@@nedbass1 hi Ned, do you get a grade for each assessment or is it a 3 gpa max upon request after graduating?
@@nedbass1 kindly explain more..... I am interested to join. I need a school that would grade me not just fail and pass
Hi Sean Winterton I want to study CRNA, would RN to Bsc be a bad idea
I’m starting my LPN- ADN program in the spring 2025 semester. My employer is already covering my ADN program but because I’m a scholar of a workforce development center, I receive scholarships from them, so they will cover my RN-BSN program which is awesome. Walden university has a partnership with my employer but to be honest, I’m looking to knock the RN-BSN out as fast as possible, so I’m considering WGU
I went to Capella University for 1.5 years for my RN-BSN and withdrew because it was a horrible program. I plan on attending WGU and have heard nothing but wonderful news about the school!
Why did you withdraw it Kathy nurses are the people I love they're hard working
I am at Capella now & I absolutely hate it. How are things going now?
@@averywindfield622 Hi I'm in the process of enrolling with Capella, can you tell me why you hate it?
Yes please answer why.
@@averywindfield622 any update? Why did you hate it there
Hello I am an RN and I keep hearing about WGU but each person has their own opinions about the program. They say it’s self taught..I’m pretty dedicated but I am concerned about teaching myself. Are there at least recorded class lessons to follow or is it just me reading and hoping I’m covering what will be on an exam. I just don’t want to cmmit to a school and then you have no guidance…I can’t afford to waste money like that. It’s the uncertainty that is holding me back right now. Thank you for your time and this video.
If I’m being honest. I learned more in a more “self taught” school than I did at Major Universities. The difference is being taught general concepts vs self taught you are graded on how well you apply the concepts to real life situations which helps you utilize it in your work more. That was a concern of mine as well.
@@amberchappell3623 how were the exams for the online program? were they proctored?
UCF tuition for out-of-state students is 748.89 per credit hour in fall 2021.
I did my RN-BSN completely online at the university of alabama
Very nice! How would you rate that program?
@@Katherine_Ann 9/10 only because I had to do one 8 hour clinical of my choosing but it wasn’t bad
ROLL TIDE!
@@TammiLay lol 😂
@@mirandaalexis, this may be the only way I can attend THE University of Alabama! lol
All of these online programs you mentioned, are contingent upon completing certain general education requirements first, before you can apply. Prospective applicants may not have completed the required general education courses, especially in Florida, and will have to pay for those courses first. This adds to the length and cost of getting a BSN degree online. Also, in-state and out-of-state tuition is different for public state universities. Some private universities charge the same tuition for in-state and out-of-state students.
Thanks for the insight, Cynthia!
You'll have alot done since you'll have an associate first.
Many of these low prices are for in-state only. One of the schools in FL went from about $230 for in state to close to $800 per credit for out of state.
Yeah, that's the unfortunate truth!
GREAT INFORMATION!! THANK-YOU!!!
Is there a way to find a BSN program that feeds into a Masters program?
I like your video. Very informative, concise, and strong.
Thank you very much!
Hi, I’m from the Caribbean and I am so interested in following one of these programs but not sure which one is good for me😒
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us
Thanks so much for watching!
Thankfully the programs I'm looking aren't requiring the ASN program be nationally accredited (ACEN). Some only have state accreditation.
Interesting!
@@Katherine_Ann Yes. The schools I am looking at want a state approved program. As for jobs now, some jobs are wanting accreditation in order for them to consider your resume. Now that is interesting. You will learn on the job reagardless.
What about Capella University?
Can you put links up for all these schools? The websites are hard to navigate
Were you required to take Statistics at WGU for your ASN to BSN? I took Statistics for my pre req requirements at my local community college for LPN to RN.
I did! I'm not sure if you would have to if you already took it though.
Hi Katherine. Is it possible for an overseas nurse who passed the NCLEX RN exam to get into the RN to BSN program online staying in their homecountry? What about the clinical placements?
I was about to say “That sounds like Dave Ramsey!” 😄😄
Are these prices for people who live in the same state as the college ? Or anyone ?
Of my knowledge they are for anyone since they are online programs. As far as WGU went it didnt matter whether you were in the state or not since it was all online.
Check the website. Some schools do charge out of state tuition
USF (#3 on the list in this video) no longer offers the RN to BSN program as of 2021
I wasn't aware of that, thanks for letting us know!
University of Texas Arlington
I have completed my diploma is nursing from Germany. Can I take this course if I want to be a BSN rn?
That's a good question. I would reach out to the individual programs to see if they would accept you!
WGU was the worst school ever. You have to pay upfront. First semestwr is about $4,300 and you pretty much teach yourself, no deadlines no structure, no guidance. You are just thrown the work. Because of this and life most people procrastinate and end up doing it on average of 4-6 semesters.... this adds up
Hey Yadira! Thanks for sharing your opinion! Sorry to hear you didnt have a good experience though!
I’m interested in WGU ! Does a BSN from WGU make it less likely for employers to accept your application or do they just care that the college is accredited?
They really just care that you have your BSN 😊
Can you do a video on Capella University? I’m trying to see my choices for online RN to BSN programs and that school is calling my attention but I feel like I need more information 😅
Hey, Cindy! Make sure you're doing your research and comparing the pros and cons for whatever university you're looking at!
Can you take breaks at any time without it affecting your tuition/ enrollment. For example, if I wanted to complete it in 6 mos but wanted to do three months then take a month break then continue the three months would I have to pay for another entire 6 mos more of tuition?
That's a great question, Charlotte! I would reach out or look into each individual program to see what they allow.
Can anyone tell me how to get into a shorter duration online or hybrid RN program and get certified for NCLEX? I am a physician from my country.
Hey Quantum, thanks for your question. Where do you live? You'll have to do some research dependent on your current schooling and what exactly you're looking for. There's various programs with different lengths all throughout the US.
is any one know LPN to associate R.N online nursing program.. i want transfer bunch of credit also.. thank you so much... God bless..
I'll do a video on that in the future!
i’m really new to this can i go to the university of south florida even if i live in tx??
If it's an online program, that's correct!
Good video, I would like to know if these colleges accept international nurse with diploma and nursing licence ??
Hey there! Every school is different so you would need to reach out and ask :)
@@Katherine_Ann ok, Thank you for replying
How i can join any of the university
you forgot to state the accreditation of WGU, legit or not legit.. I've only heard that it is a diploma mill..
Hey, Sergio. Thanks for your comment. I can see why people may have said that. If you do your research, WGU has created a great reputation for themselves not only in BSN programs, but in other fields of study. Sure, this could just be creative marketing, but it appears they're doing something right!
How does an online accelerated BSN program work since nursing is hands on?
Online accelerated BSN programs are only for those who already hold an RN degree. These programs are RN to BSN programs :)
Nurse Katherine oh makes sense! What are some good online programs for students who already hold a bachelors degree such as biology
I heard the max GPA you can get at WGU was a 3.0. Is that accurate?
Hi Ashley! So with WGU it's a pass or fail, there is no letter grading. I dont have any type of GPA on any of my records that I am aware.
@@Katherine_Ann If you apply for a higher education and they required letter grading they will take your passing grade as a 3.0. And, this may drop your GPA. That's the down side of WGU, unfortunately.
Yea correct but many people are doing dnp now
@@BrownskinbambiRN what's dnp mean? I'm a newbie lol
When u graduate, yes that's true
Hi I am a registered nurse in Ghana- Africa. I hold a BSN in Ghana and want to further to BSN US standard
2. I want to be a RN in US
3. I want The right school with the right program for me and a university with a great NCLEX pass rate
Please help me
I see alot of international students in Calvin College ,Michighan state,Majority are studying nursing the also allowed them to work part time
I’m also from Ghana and currently working here in the US. I’m doing a prep course for those who wants to write the NCLEX in Ghana.
@@maameserwah3364 how do I join
Please let me know how did you proceed and how did you get RN license
Have you heard about ICHS?
Hey Carolyn! I have not, is this a newer school?
💯
Will it reflects in my certificate that I did an online degree program
By certificate do you mean your paper degree?
Please, do these universities accept international students?... I’m an RN from Nigeria and I’ll like to further my education in the US.
I am not sure, I would say maybe email them to find out! Or call!
Hi did they accept, i am eager to know , i am also in same state
how about Chamberlain?
I have heard mixed things about Chamberlain!
Is WGU a pass / fail program or do they give letter grades?
Yes, it's a pass/fail program!
@@Katherine_Ann that’s horrible because that won’t transfer to many schools for Masters that want to see letter grades.
Does WGU require a lot of papers?
Hey, Avery. Not at all! I maybe wrote 4 to 5 papers the entire time. I can't guarantee that's the way for everyone, though.
Are these programs for second bachelor programs?
These are if you have your RN license but dont have a bachelors degree
@@Katherine_Ann where can I find a list for that?
A list for which type of program?
@@Katherine_Ann second bachelors
is WGU completely online ? I’m not from that area and thinking about that program to do RN to BSN.
Yes it is! They are based out of Utah but the RN to BSN is totally online! I'm from PA and did it and theres no extra fee from being out of state
@@Katherine_Ann thank you so much !
@@Katherine_Ann You are awesome, well spoken and it is great you are spreading helpful messages to RN's. I just finished an RN to BSN at WGU in 2020, myself!
Anyone know if these institutions accept international diploma RN ?
Hey there! I would suggest calling the facility and asking :)
Yes… I’m a nurse from Ghana with diploma and did my RN BSN at Akron university for a year
@@maameserwah3364 thank you so much for the response. How was the course ?
@@baliemz was ok… just different from what we are used to in Ghana but you’ll be fine
@@baliemz it was quite different from what I was used to coming from a different country but I quickly adjusted and the instructors guide you through it all. I did graduate with a great GPA😎
Hello Katherine. Thanks for your helpful videos. I really need a help in choosing the best university for RN TO BSN online for international student. I have RN license of NEW York.
What do you think about Capella University ? Many students say good comments about its program. Also, how did you do the 90 hrs of Field experience in WGU? Does this require real practices in some hospital settings or communities?
Regards, Aziza.
Hi how did get RN license in New York , where you nurse in India or did you do any nursing degree in USA: please help me I want to get RN license.
It would be nice to know if the prices you are quoting are for in state tuition only or if the cost is the same for out of state applicants.
Do you foresee any issues with getting into a graduate program with a WGU degree? I know it’s accredited, but I wonder about the GPA situation. Thank you!
I haven't heard of any but WGU also offers higher degrees aswell.
What was told was that a WGU Competence is considered a B, so eligible for a Masters proogram.
Nice one Sis, I have been looking for an online RN program but am in Nigeria, could this be possible?
And which school do you recommend? ?
Hi there! To be totally transparent I have no idea how these facilities work when it comes to international students. I would just call/email and find out!
Yes I’m in this situation too, I’m a Nigerian Study radiography but all universities are currently on strike for 6months and it’s depressing. I want an online nursing school. I feel like my life is put on hold😭
You can do Capella University from nigeria. Its 100% online except for masters in nursing
5:35 thank you for this information !
Thanks for watching!
So accredited schools is the safer route I see. Thank you so much for this video. I’m joining one and starting in July. Pretty excited but wanted to make sure it was a safer route.
Hi! Just saw your comment and we are really excited for you to begin your nursing endeavor! Best of luck! You got disss
Hi, how is school coming along? I’m a new grad nurse thinking of going back for my BSN. What school did you decide to go with?
@@Krislt9 Hello I ended up going to rasmussen! Its a good school and it is super challenging.
Where did u go?
I just got out of Keiser , $10,400 per semester!!! So $40,000+ to complete. It’s crazy!!
Waw
Herzing is 90k for 2.5 years BSN
Why aren't u working in hospital? Why did u leave n get a desk job? Ur young. Couldn't have put many yrs in there? All nurses leave nursing. Go be nursing teacher. Get in administration. Or get. Cake. Desk job. What's ur reason?
Good questions! I was most recently working at a hospital as a travel nurse but left due to my daughter being born!
Thanks for the information Katherine.
Can I take the RN-BSN online in UCF course from the UK?
Thanks for watching! That's a good question, I don't know for certain. I would reach out and speak to their registrar for more information!
@@Katherine_Ann Alright Katherine. Thank you.
So if my school was accredited by ACICS is there any where I can go for my RN to BSN?
It would depend on the school! I would just create out to the ones you're interested in to see if they would accept you into their program!
I've attended ECPI unfortunately none of the credits transfer because they want you to stay with them. Does having a license change anything?
Hi Essie, thanks for the question. Unfortunately, I don't have a concrete answer for that. I would definitely reach out to ECPI and/or whatever institution you want to transfer to.
If my RN licenses in California and I get my BSN in another state does my license still come from California or will be the state I got my BSN in?
Your license will still be a California license. You're an RN through the state board of California not through the school you graduate from. 😊
Very good informations. Thank you.
I need your help please
How can I help, Rosie?!
Question, im thinking wgu, but what if I want to do a brick mortar post graduate program? Like a state college.
I would check with WGU and see if the credits transfer to the school your interested in!
Any idea on scholarships?
There are soooo many out there! If you di a quick Google search you can find soooo many!
Please which online school would you recommend for Lpn program
No such thing yes a program can offer online classes now because of covid. but the whole program shouldn't be online . It's a 12 month program you need some hands on and also need lectures to go with theory
What about nightingale college?
That's definitely an option!
Are these BSN programs right? I love this video!
Thank you for watching!
Is it a degree or a online course
Online classes in which you then get your degree from those classes. Instead of in person classes it is online but it's working towards the same goal!
What about excelsior
Hey Lisi! I'm not familiar with the program, so I couldn't speak to it personally. I would just do your due diligence when researching a program and see what works best for you!
That's a great point!
@1:27 the way you spelled financial aid =/
What is the difference between RN-BSN and accelerated BSN program?
Accelerated BSN programs you do not hold a RN license yet, with RN to BSN programs you already are an RN.
Accelerated is usually for people who have a degree in a non nursing program and RN to BSN is for someone with a diploma in nursing wanting to turn it into a degree
@@portiakeatametse2072 rn to bsn is for someone who got their nursing rn education from a diploma program or an associate’s degree program so it’s not only for rn’s with a diploma
@@moonlightandstaryeyesbestr6061 yes that too....
Very interesting. I wonder where Grand Canyon University, Independence University and Indiana Weslian University fall in that line-up. I had sort of thought I would do my BSN through a Christian school but both you and Ashley Adkins, RN went through WGU and I was wondering how exactly that worked. It almost sounds like the way that Sophia Academy is laid out, which is the online college I used to get my psych, sociology, Spanish, English lit and pre-biology credits (then transferred them into my school)
Hey Heidi! I realllyyyy enjoyed WGU due to simplicity and cost. The way I see it with a Christian college is... it's soooo expensive. So why not just get my basic degree as cheap as I can with the quality still there and eventually go back to take other Chrsitian and theological classes possibly by a college but... lots of Churches and ministries offer classes too for a great price!
@@Katherine_Ann how long did it take for you to complete and get your degree? Did you get RN or BSN with WGU?
@@faithwalk. hey! I completed it just under a year and a half, I took a one month break, the month I got married. I was already an RN and working fulltime as an RN. WGU offers an RN to BSN program so that's what I did :)
@@Katherine_Ann nice!Blessings to your marriage and fam🙏🏽 Well, idk if this for me(nursing). I just feel pressured cause most of my family is in the med field an dthe $ sounds good.
@@faithwalk. Well I’m still in nursing school working towards my RN so others might be better to address this, but I am an older non-traditional student with some life and experience under my belt if not medical working experience. So here is what I would tell you, same I tell my kids. Life is too short and work is too much of our lives to spend it doing something we don’t really enjoy. Also money can be a nice benefit for sure, but should never be the main impetus for any field. It’s just not worth it if it means spending your time doing something you do not enjoy, or even worse actually hate. Nursing isn’t easy. And quality patient care is so vitally important but I would imagine being difficult to give if your heart wasn’t really in it. If you feel you would enjoy the medical field, go for it. If you think you wouldn’t, find something else you’ll really love doing and spending your days on. 😄
How do you find out if an employer will cover an RN-BSN program?
Just contact your HR department!
When you say 100% online do you mean clinicals as well?
Hey, Olivia. I didn't do any clinicals for my RN-BSN program through WGU.
@@Katherine_Ann There is 100 hour clinical requirement now with a preceptor .
@@Katherine_AnnYes in 2023 WGU is now not the best choice. They are requiring 40 hours of in person preceptorship. The student has to find a preceptor. They don’t help you. Then they take long to approve the site -up to 6 months! And some sites need an affiliation. I live in Los Angeles and almost all places need an affiliation. Meanwhile, you’re paying for the term and you can’t even start. IT’S A MONEY GRABBING SCAM!
@ nurse Katherine Where did you do your rn-bsn?
I did mine at WGU!
@@Katherine_Ann I decided I will do WGU and started today with orientation. Any tips for success? Thank you
@@vicmtz5135 thats exciting! I would have to say be consistant in your studying and block out time of your week, write it down on a calendar, and stick to that time to do your school work.
I'm thinking of Capella. Fingers crossed.
Poor ratings… Do your research!
Please let me know how did you get RN license in USA and how did you proceed with online program
