Avoid their online RN to BSN program!!! Since their bright star- Dr. Harmon- left, they are increasingly disorganized and unapproachable. The assignments are hard to find on their website; the syllabuses are confusing and self-contradictory.

The workload for one class is insane! For example NURS 7004 - 45 hours of clinical which we have to arrange ourselves; 55 pages of researched writing with APA citations (500 or 750 word APA assignment weekly and two large project papers), community education project- assess, plan, execute, evaluate, write another huge report with photos. ONE class is a half time job!!! God help you if you are trying to take more than one class and working full time!).

In contrast to the ultra-heavy workload placed on students, some professors are scarce- rarely showing up to comment on the discussion forums and with sometimes months long delays in grading assignments. And I have given up attempting to clarify or question by e-mail as I have found the responses rude and condescending- blaming me instead of taking responsibility for a contradictory syllabus or their own website errors.

Too late for me to drop out with thousands of dollars already invested. Not too late for you though!
