Marijo Smith:Hi, I purchased the Rue Education program and find that if I study the material in the workbooks and highlight the material in the text books, I have been able to pass the tests. The hardest thing is to discipline yourself to study on a regular basis. I have finished a course in as little as a month and also taken 6 months to finish another. I have also looked up course content on the web, just to get a little extra reading in. I find the service representatives at Rue extremely helpful. Hopefully The College Network has the same thing. I do plan on taking Microbiology at my local community college because I feel it will be easier, rather than trying to do it through home study. I hope that helps you. Marijo
I was in contact with RUE, College Network at a point in time. I finally just applied to Excelsior. There is a forum at allnurses.com, many ppl regret throwing away money. My problem with Excelsior (I just found out), ASN & AAS degress are not eligible for financial aid (Fafsa). Now I know why ppl are going through RUE and College Network. So, my question is: RUE, is it affordable???
