Sponsored Description:
Founded by 19 U.S. governors, Western Governors University is a private, nonprofit, online university that offers CCNE-accredited nursing bachelor’s degrees for current and aspiring registered nurses and a CAHIIM-accredited B.S. in Health Informatics, which includes several IT certifications from CIW, CompTIA, Microsoft, and AHIMA. These degree programs are offered through WGU’s College of Health Professions, the first national, online competency-based college of its kind in the United States. WGU’s unique competency-based model measures learning rather than time in a classroom and provides a relevant, rigorous professional education designed to enhance your job skills and prepare you for career success. Progress is determined by your ability to pass assessments—tests, projects, essays, and task assignments—that measure your knowledge and skills in critical subject areas. Students who already possess the required skills and knowledge are able to leverage these competencies to complete assessments faster and accelerate their progress. WGU also gives you unparalleled flexibility and control over your education, a dedicated mentor committed to your success, and affordable tuition. Our nursing degrees were developed under the guidance and support of Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), Tenet Healthcare, Kaiser Permanente, Universal Health Services, and Catholic Healthcare West.

I am a student in the RN to BSN program at WGU. I already hold a MBA and MHA. I am impressed with this university. They are very nice and extremely helpful. I feel like the staff are there to make sure you are successful. I recommend it to all of the nurses that I supervise. This university is regionally accredited and accredited by the appropriate nursinig organziations. You can not beat this is program anywhere! I checked out about 50 programs before choosing WGU. It sounded so good to be true, that I almost passed it up. When several of my colleages finished, and recommended it, I enrolled and am so glad I did!
