My pleasure! I think making that decision for yourself is important because you don't want to start a program that wouldn't be ideal for you. Thankfully they also have the GuidePath option also. You definitely have to be organized and self-motivated to get the assignments done, but also be okay with exploring the resources yourself to ensure you meet the competencies. I've leveraged the librarian via online chat, my tutor, and the library's resources a lot. I'm enjoying it, but could see how others would prefer the GuidePath format as well. It's nice there are options now instead of a one-size fits all method of higher education. #spon

Kati Kleber you are right and made it clear enough for me to know that the Flex Path is for me.

Hi Jackie! I AM DONE! I began in June of 2017 and completed the program in October of 2018, and will walk for commencement later this week! Each class is different - the first few classes required 3 assessments, but I had some that had as many as 6. I'd say they averaged 3-5 assessments per class, each with a varying degree of complexity.

@@freshrn what is the typical prices of textbooks per class you paid?

They fastest they let you go is doing 2 classes at once; and the pace you turn in assignments is up to you. The assignments were complex and definitely took time. Getting one assessment per week was as much as I could handle with working full time concurrently. The fastest I went was towards the end when I needed to complete the degree before I had my second baby. I was enrolled in two classes at once, and while I was awaiting a grade on one assessment, I'd work on the other class. I believe I completed two classes in a month, and was working on assignments every day.

It took me 3 total weeks to complete it! I did one assessment per week. I'm currently working on my second course and it will take me closer to 5 weeks. I allowed myself some extra time for this course because my family and I moved. It was really helpful to be able to adjust the target date when I needed to. After I submit this next assessment next week, I'll go back to 1 assessment per week.

How's it going now? Do you still like the program? I am thinking about signing up.

I'm sorry I am just seeing this comment! I am actually finished with the program now! It took me about 17 months to obtain my MSN in Nursing Education and was really happy with the program. It was doable, but also learned a lot and felt it was valuable. @@leroyhill5843

@@freshrn You stated you completed it in 17months, was it one course at a time or did you do more than one course?
