thank you so much for your review, I just signed up a few weeks ago, start my first class 4/12. MSN education. Hearing your review has made me feel much better. I've been in nursing for 19 years so going back to school is a little scary! A lot of my coworkers are doing MSN with Walden which also makes me feel better!
Great review! I also attended Walden University and just graduated with my MSN in nursing education this past August 2022. I also had a great experience at Walden and share your cons, especially with the clinical courses and all the requirements, preceptors, and affiliation agreements.
Did you do the traditional courses or the tempo learning, I'm going to be finishing my MSN -EDU with Walden. I'm thinking about the Tempo but just now sure.
@@TheLifeofTM Thank you for replying! I did my BSN with Walden and I'm transferring back to finish my MSN-EDU.. trying to decide if I want to do traditional route or tempo. When you did the first practicum "clinical Specialty" what were you required to do? Assess patients?
I have just enrolled in the program. MSN-Psych Mental Heakth NP. Did you already have your BSN. I’m doing the RN-MSN track, is it still 1.5 years full time?
Finding Walden affiliated preceptors looks hectic for me. How did you get that link? I am Walden student who is finding appropriate preceptors in my field site.
Thank you for reaching out. On your walden home page where you can see what class you are enrolled in, scroll down to the bottom. You will see a link with the name "Meditrek." Click on it and sign into your account. Once signed in, click on "Search Affiliation Agreements" then fill out all the search boxes. Once you locate an affiliation field site reach out to your academic counselor to find out if that affiliation agreement is current and active. Then reach out to that field site and inform them that you are a student from Walden and an affiliation agreement already exists for their site and you'd like to connect with a preceptor that has the qualification you are looking for based on your program. Hope this helps!!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m currently enrolled in their AGPCNP program. Congratulations by the way. It’s not easy but it’s doable with time management and family support.
Thank you so much! Am making my decision on where to attend online MSN PMHNP. Haven’t been at the bedside in a bit. Have worked in clinics. Have cardio, ob, gi, and aesthetic experience. Wanting to go back to obtain credentials that will allow me to give back to the mental health community.
Hi Danielle, the reason why most students fail Walden University examination is because multi-tasking professional calling and academic learning is not an easy task. However, personally I have worked with several students which have eased their academic life at Walden University. Simply, if you are talking BSN or MSN or any other nursing course at Walden University, email me at florencelee120@gmail.com. I will provide you with discussion and assignment drafts. Thank you
If I begin FNP program full time and decide for short term, I may need to switch to part time, is that possible? I am still working in open heart surgery while taking masters degree.
I see a lot of mixed reviews about Walden I’m really considering starting my MSW degree at this university and I want to to know if I am making the right choice . I know that masters degree in general is no walk in the park and you have to put in hard work and dedication . But can someone give me a reassurance that it’s a good school ?
Hey!! Thanks for your comment. I felt the same way when I seen the reviews. Unfortunately I can only speak to my experience and that was with the MSN program. I hope someone can comment and express their experience with the MSW program. Best of luck with finding a school!! Whatever school you pick, I know you’ll do amazing ☺️☺️
I can vouch for Walden as well. I’m completing the MSN-FNP program, and I must share that the professors in every course, the advisors, and the field office personnel for the practicums classes, are absolutely outstanding! Put in the time and effort, and you can do it. I agree with securing a clinical site, that part is the toughest.
Thanks for this video! I start in the MSN in education program at Walden on 11/30! I am excited to get started but a little nervous about going back to school after 7+ years. This video gave me a lot of insight about what I should expect. Any other tips/tricks/hints would be great! What are you doing now that you are done with school?
Omg how exciting! Super excited for you! You will do great. The teachers are amazing and so supportive. A good work/life/social balance is key. Stay on top of your discussion posts, ask the instructors for help on any assignment and they will elaborate to ensure you get the highest possible score. Communicate if an assignment is going to be late and they will work with you. Focus on the rubric and be as thorough as you can. I got promoted to supervisor at my job and now teaching part time for a private nursing school ! Let me know if you have any questions. You can DM me on Instagram: @thelifeof_tm if you have an IG.
I am thinking of getting my MSN FNP through them. I looked and it’s a lot cheaper than my local universities for the program. People say online isn’t good but it fits me, being a working mom and I have other obligations. It was already a lot on me when I got my undergrad and couldn’t work during nursing school. I want to continue to work and go to school. Also they have a ADN to MSN which is great for me so I don’t have to get my BSN first before applying to the program, I get while I’m in the MSN program
@Mohammed it took me two years to complete the prerequisites and then it took me about a year to finish my dissertation. The cost I don’t remember exactly but I think it was around 80,000 no I did not help me attain my professional goals. Everywhere I got hired to be a professor I did prior to me finishing my degree I thought that getting my PhD would help me get picked up at different universities easily. It did not. I feel that I have a pretty heavy résumé and such items such as CPP, six sigma black belt, advising the Pentagon and presidential security still not enough to get picked up. Furthermore, I applied to Walden university themselves and did not did not even reply back. I don’t think it’s worth it.
What part of California did you do your clinical at. I’m interested in this school too but I’m scared of finding my own clinical sites since I don’t know too many mds or nps
@@TheLifeofTM yeah I was going to start the enrollment process today to see what financial aid and grants I can get and they called and told me im not old enough
Hello Dare, its awesome that you will be starting your career journey soon, one you secure a school, do not hesitate to reach me through florencelee120@gmail.com whenever you need academic help. Thank you.
If your asking about my courses while in the program. No they weren’t live. You would submit videos in some classes and there were some prerecorded videos but no live classes.
i am richie bush from newsletter and i will love to have some of you students for some academic preview on a topic that that will be discussed along side what is in for you when you show interest.
Congratulations on your achievement...I started doing my Masters in Nursing Education June 2020 with Walden then switched to PH Nursing...thank you for sharing....All the best!
Hello! I am curious how you decided on the MSN in nursing education. I know you are working in public health and am curious why you did not pursue the MSN in public health at Walden. I am passionate about public health so am trying to decide between MPH, MSN in public health, or MSN in education. Thanks so much!
Thank you for your question. I want to eventually teach RN students part time. In California if you want to teach RN students then you must posses a MSN in Nursing Education. If I did not want to teach in the future then I would have chosen the MSN in Public Health. I prefer the MSN rather than the MPH because the MSN focuses on the clinical medical knowledge side of public health. If your looking to be a leader or a manager in the professional nursing practice role of public health than the MSN is the right choice. If you don’t mind the role you will have in public health or you aren’t looking to be in a manger role over nurses then the MPH would be a great fit. The MPH allows you to perform various roles within public health and doesn’t limit you to only focus on teaching or doing research. Hope this helps.
Hi Congratulations for Completing Msc.N. I am new to Walden University and going to start Msc. N- Nursing Education in Aug 2021. Can you provide me your email id or any other Contact so, i can ask you some questions related to the program. Thank you ! Love from 🇨🇦

How has it been going Margaret?
Great review! I also attended Walden University and just graduated with my MSN in nursing education this past August 2022. I also had a great experience at Walden and share your cons, especially with the clinical courses and all the requirements, preceptors, and affiliation agreements.
Wow congratulations and thank you for the comment :)
More difficult if you have children
Do you know anyone who did the Psych Mental health program?? I’m thinking about Walden but wondering did it prepare you to take the boards?
No I don’t but I’d go on your states Board of nursing and look at Waldens graduation rate to get an idea.
Anyone in the Tempo learning tract for MSN-EDU? Thoughts?
Did u pursue it?
How hard it is to…. Is it exam based or just assignments?
Did you do the traditional courses or the tempo learning, I'm going to be finishing my MSN -EDU with Walden. I'm thinking about the Tempo but just now sure.
Hi! I did traditional.
@@TheLifeofTM Thank you for replying! I did my BSN with Walden and I'm transferring back to finish my MSN-EDU.. trying to decide if I want to do traditional route or tempo. When you did the first practicum "clinical Specialty" what were you required to do? Assess patients?
I only have 5 classes left and the two practicums. I'm thankful they took my previous classes from West Coast University. We moved to WA.
Hello thank you for your review it was amazing hearing from someone that graduated in Education.
One question? Did you have any quizzes or exams???
Hi, you’re welcome. Yes in a few classes we had exams. The rest were papers.
Thank you, for this video. Also did you already post a time-management video for Graduate programs?
I have just enrolled in the program. MSN-Psych Mental Heakth NP. Did you already have your BSN. I’m doing the RN-MSN track, is it still 1.5 years full time?
Hi. Congrats! Yes I did. Not sure how long it is when going straight from ADN-MSN
For the last presentation, to who did you present it too? The school? Class? Online live?
The hospital and a few elementary/junior high schools. It was live/in person as this was pre Covid times.
Finding Walden affiliated preceptors looks hectic for me. How did you get that link? I am Walden student who is finding appropriate preceptors in my field site.

Hello Timica, kindly email me on florencelee120@gmail.com
Thanks I just stared Walden for AGNP
Having kids is not a distraction for excuse not to attend ONLINE school?
Thank you so much!

Yes they will work with your work schedule and alter your graduation date. Just reach out to your academic counselor :)
Anyone doing a PHD in clinical Psychology at Walden? I so wanted to have some reviews as I'm considering this program.
Me too
Did you take Course based or tempo- competency based ?
Hey! I did the course based.
I see a lot of mixed reviews about Walden I’m really considering starting my MSW degree at this university and I want to to know if I am making the right choice .

How is it going 4 months in?

Awesome! Good luck!!
What website is that to mention the accreditation for universities ?
It’s the board of registered nursing for your state. For example, in CA it would be: www.rn.ca.gov
I am a PhD student, pending proposal approval. Love it
@Mohammed yes I did, I fished very quickly. I was done last year in march
@Mohammed it took me two years to complete the prerequisites and then it took me about a year to finish my dissertation.

Thank you!! Best of luck to you
How do you like the MSW program? Any issues? Trying to decide if Walden is a good school to get my masters from
I applied for the acute care NP. Your review sealed the deal!
How’s it going so far?
How was your experience at Walden so far?
let me guess, apu for lvn to bsn?
What part of California did you do your clinical at. I’m interested in this school too but I’m scared of finding my own clinical sites since I don’t know too many mds or nps
Central California. I did it with sutter health
I just learned you have to be at least 21 to attend Walden university 😭
No way! I did not know this
@@TheLifeofTM yeah I was going to start the enrollment process today to see what financial aid and grants I can get and they called and told me im not old enough
I’m sure there are many other universities you can apply for ☺️. Good luck!!
Hello Dare, its awesome that you will be starting your career journey soon, one you secure a school, do not hesitate to reach me through florencelee120@gmail.com whenever you need academic help. Thank you.

Thank you for helping me to decide

Hi. Please what scholarships did you apply for?
Hello!! It was offered through Walden when I applied.
Congratulations on your achievement...I started doing my Masters in Nursing Education June 2020 with Walden then switched to PH Nursing...thank you for sharing....All the best!
Thank you! Best of luck to you as well!
Is there anywhere on their site that tells you all of the classes you need to complete your msn? I looked and couldn’t find it.
Hello. Yes, for which specialization?
Hello! I am curious how you decided on the MSN in nursing education. I know you are working in public health and am curious why you did not pursue the MSN in public health at Walden.

They are:
