I’ve been looking into this program, how is the program? I have a teas book from the previous school I was considering are the teas and hesi similar? Thank you
Hello! I’m currently a new student at Chamberlain in the Chicago area. Do you know if in between sessions there is a break? Or are the classes literally back to back between each session.
Hey! Welcome to Chamberlain 😊 Classes are back to back. A course will end on a Sunday and the next course starts the very next day. We get two breaks during the year: Spring Break, which is a week. And then we get Winter Break which is two weeks in December (around Christmas). Other than that, we have a few three day weekends throughout the year (Labor Day, July 4th)… hope that helps!
Wow. Do you think the work load is hard? I am nervous about balancing school, work, and friends and family time. Also, did you receive any scholarships? Great video and thanks for the info btw❤️
Thank you so much! So far the work load is manageable for me working full time because I’m used to it. It really just depends person to person… I was doing pre-nursing courses while finishing up a masters program and working full time, so now just having nursing school and working full time is less on my plate than I’m used to. If you’re not used to working while in school, it is definitely an adjustment and you will need to figure out what time management means for you… but it is totally possible!
Hey, I believe that science credits need to be no more than five years old… When I was applying to nursing schools, I remember that most places will accept credits that were obtained under 10 years ago for gen eds and science credits that were obtained under five years ago. Definitely reach out to an advisor to double check!
Hi, question for you! With no degree or college experience, how long is the pre-req out of the 3years at Chamberlain? Do you still get to finish in 3 years with no previous college credits? I hope this makes sense. Thank you
Hello! I really enjoy watching your videos.. hope to see more videos like this. I have a question.. I am a new student at chamberlain, and my session starts on September 4 th. They told me thst my student orientation is on August 31. They haven’t told me when i will be able to register for my classes. Is this normally like this or should i wait till my student orientation day? Thank you
Hey! Thank you so much for watching and good luck on starting school! Definitely reach out to your advisor and ask them. When you first start at Chamberlain, your advisor should sign you up for your first set of classes. They may have already done it and you just are not aware.
Pls what tuition like for 2yrs n 4months program? After completion of most gen Ed before chamberlain start. How were u able to afford such with a prior bacc and masters degree. Does Fedloan’s cover it all if not where can other financial school assistance be gotten for such expensive programs
Hey! It’s best to reach out to a student advisor at chamberlain to get an estimate of what your classes will cost if you transfer in with some credits, because each campus has a different price per credit. I fortunately didn’t have student loans from my previous degrees. I worked full time, paid out of pocket, and had a scholarship for my second degree. I took out federal loans for this degree, and I’m paying the difference out of pocket. A lot of students do federal loans and then take out private loans to pay the difference!
I work full time so does chamberlain offer a hybrid program where you can go to lectures online and go labs or clinical sun person only in the weekend??
Hey, yes! But I don’t think that every campus has this option available. I attended the Tysons Corner campus, and when I started the program that was not an option for me. I think about a year into me starting, the hybrid program was developed for Tysons Corner. Definitely reach out to an advisor at the school and see if the hybrid program is available at the campus near you!
Hello. I’m looking at starting at chamberlain this May or September. Whats the evening classes like? What time does the classes start and what time does it end?
Thank you for watching! On my campus, the evening classes always start at 6 PM. You can have class any weeknight. I usually have classes two nights a week, either Mondays and Wednesdays or Tuesdays and Thursdays. There was one session last summer where I had to go to campus for class four nights a week though! The length of a class just varies depending on which course you are taking. Some courses are two hour classes, many are 3 hour classes, and I’ve had a course that was 4 hours in the evening once. Classes change every eight weeks, so your schedule will change every eight weeks. I hope that helps!
Hey! So some campuses for Chamberlain do have an online option, but the program that I am in is in person. So all of my classes are in person, on campus. Since I’m in the evening and weekend program, my classes start week nights at 6pm. Some classes have me only going to campus once a week while others are 2-3 time a week. And then I go to clinicals on Saturday or Sunday during the day. I hope this helps!
I do really well in online classes. I don't care about not having a social life. But I am trying to look for a program where I can still work full time and go to school part time. As of right now I am at a community college. Because I can't afford a absn program based on me being a co teacher and my job just wants to pay me just a 1,000 dollars and thats it. Yeah I am having to pay for school out of pocket and I am also completing a medical assistant program and then after that i'm applying to Nursing school at my community college it's much cheaper. It's the path that I am choosing because working in the education field just isn't worth it at all. I need options in my life.
I think that is an amazing path to choose. It sounds insanely difficult, but if you are determined enough just about anything is possible. It is sacrifice now for a fulfilling, rewarding, and lucrative career. And going to Community College and paying out of pocket is by far the smartest financial decision that you can make when it comes to getting a nursing degree. Good luck!!!
Hey! Reach out to your academic advisor and tell them you want to take the proficiency exam for the course. You schedule it through them. You have the option to test out of any gen Ed course. If you pass the proficiency exam, you have successfully tested out of the course… good luck!
Do you know if having nursing prerequisites takes time off of the 3 years? I saw a student talk on tik tok saying it would only be a year and a half for her because she had prerequisites.
Hey, yes it can. But with Chamberlain specifically, I believe the quickest that you are allowed to finish the program is two years and four months - and I believe the only way that you can cut it down to that is if you transfer in with absolutely all of your prerequisites completed. I transferred in with over 30 credits, and it will still take me a total of three years to complete the program. But my final year in the program, I’m only having to take one class at a time while most of my classmates are taking multiple classes… So even though I have to attend school the entire three years, it’s a significantly less workload on me.
@@theluckienurse thank you so much for this info. I have an associates degree and all nursing prerequisites (a&p 1 and 2), micro, Chem, statistics, etc. I’m going to have them look at an unofficial and tell me before applying. The only reason I would choose Chamberlain as if it was last time because I can get into an ASN program locally and then go to school and get my BSN online for less than a year and all and all that would add up to three years.
@@TheKyleeKae Getting an ADN or an ASN and then doing a bridge program is definitely a more affordable option! It just depends on what your personal needs are!
Hey! That I’m actually not sure. In the evening and weekend program on my campus, the people in my class are mostly mid 20s- mid 30s. I’ve had people in class over 50 though, and it seems like the day time program has a lot of younger students - early 20s. It just depends on your campus, and your cohort!
Hey! I think it just depends on what type of learner you are. There are certain classes for me that I definitely benefited from having in person because I pay more attention that way.. those would be classes like patho. I actually took pharmacology online, and I REALLY wish that I had it in person because I really did not retain as much as should have. Other than those few classes, though, I think the most of the program could really be done online and it would save you from having to drive to and from campus!
Yes! Chamberlain does have an online only option, where you only need to be in person for clinicals! This started at my campus after I entered the program.
Hey! Yes, their program is an accelerated program. A traditional BSN is 4 years, while Chamberlain is 3 years. You can finish the program in as little as 2 years and 4 months if you transfer in with all of your pre-reqs!
Hey no, clinicals are within a certain mile radius of your campus. Most clinicals will be about 30mins to an hour away from school. And unfortunately, yes. Because it’s a BSN program. There are a couple of LPNs in my cohort and it’ll take them 3 years to finish 😕
Hey! Is what somewhat is heat? Chamberlain university or nursing school? Both are hard lol Chamberlain is especially difficult because it is an accelerated nursing program. Chamberlain fits four years of school into a three year program, so you have to know everything in a very condensed amount of time. You don’t have to be especially top notch in any particular subjects. Being focused and good at time management is more important
@@MariaGonzalez-sp4pg Reach out to the school by calling the general line to get in touch with someone if your advisor is not responsive… My orientation was virtual, because of Covid… I’m not sure what will happen if you missing in person orientation.
Hey! Clinicals at Chamberlain start when you get to fundamentals of patient care! Fundamentals skills is like part one of fundamentals, and you work in a lab with mannequins… Fundamentals of patient care is like fundamentals part two, and you’re actually going to the hospital and working with patients!
Hey! So it varies. Some classes are twice a week for 2-3 hours and some classes are once a week for 4 hours. Each class is subject to a different schedule. But all my evening classes have always started at 6 pm

So basically this is the school for me ❤ thank you so much
Thank you for watching! And I’m happy with Chamberlain so far 😊
Thanks for the information! I’ll be looking into the Tysons Corner location, I’m so excited 😆
Yay!!! Maybe we’ll see each other on campus! 😊
I’ve been looking into this program, how is the program? I have a teas book from the previous school I was considering are the teas and hesi similar? Thank you

Hi I’m thinking about applying to the Chicago campus can I dm you on social media to ask questions?
January 2024 for me 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
Aww is that when you are starting the program?
Thank you so much for the video, quite informational. Do you know if they would take gened courses taken 7 years ago?
Hey, I believe that science credits need to be no more than five years old… When I was applying to nursing schools, I remember that most places will accept credits that were obtained under 10 years ago for gen eds and science credits that were obtained under five years ago.

Hi, question for you!
With no degree or college experience, how long is the pre-req out of the 3years at Chamberlain?
Do you still get to finish in 3 years with no previous college credits?
I hope this makes sense. Thank you
Hey! The program is 3 years if you transfer in with absolutely no credits/college experience. So yes, you’ll still finish in 3 years!
How long are the online classes like hour wise? And how often a week?

Hi! I have a question. Do they allow you to wear makeup?
Hi! Yes, you are allowed to wear make up but it has to be minimal/natural
Are they strict about the order in which you take the courses?
Hey, to an extent. You can only take one clinical course at a time and there are certain classes that you must take before taking other classes.
Hi! I was wondering how old the average student was in the actual nursing program after the general ed courses ?
Hey! That I’m actually not sure. In the evening and weekend program on my campus, the people in my class are mostly mid 20s- mid 30s.

Is it true you have to travel for clinicals all over the country and even if you're already an LPN it takes 3 yrs to finish? sounds nightmarish
Hey no, clinicals are within a certain mile radius of your campus. Most clinicals will be about 30mins to an hour away from school. And unfortunately, yes. Because it’s a BSN program. There are a couple of LPNs in my cohort and it’ll take them 3 years to finish 😕
