I’m so anxious about starting capella next month. Haven’t wrote a paper in a while and starting to get cold feet! Trying not to talk myself out of it! What is the best advice with brainstorming and trying to start a paper for capella!

[@KimmyDTV]

How long does it take for you to finish a single class?

[@JayP0223]

Thank you for the video! I’m currently in my final course, the Capstone!!! 🙌🏽 my question is, how long does it take them to verify the hours on the volunteer experience form?

[@KimmyDTV]

[@KayDejaVu]

No

[@KimmyDTV]

Yes, they offer letter grades after you graduated you can apply for translated transcript I spoke about this on my first Capella video hope it helps 💕

[@DevTheDudeRN]

Are there exams?

[@MayaRoseXO]

Papers are not my strong point, Do I have a chance at finishing in 12 weeks ?

[@KimmyDTV]

Yes!!! Just try your best you will get better with every paper!

[@TiffaniCrums]

Yes for Sure I can get rid of it in one billing cycle..

[@Nettaa129]

So if you take longer than 12 weeks your tuition will go up?

[@KimmyDTV]

NOo it won’t go up but they will re-charge you

[@bostoniansavan9200]

This is nicely done, but I need some more info from you though, what should I do lol?

[@KimmyDTV]

[@melimelrn7055]

I see a lot of faces , which one is the right one?

[@sidsolovelyyy]

Can someone tell me the steps after I get my BSN in RN ?? I want to do the Capella PhD Physiology in psychology but I didn’t know what order or steps it goes in as far as the Flex program or if I needed my Doctrine NP first , like what’s the order is it even necessary if I am doing general psychology in Nursing ? Do i absolutely need to do the DNP Program? Helllp So far I went LPN certificate LPN-RN Associates RN- BSN

You’re on a solid path, but it can be a bit confusing to navigate the next steps, especially when considering a PhD in Psychology while also having a strong nursing background. Here’s a breakdown of the typical pathways and considerations: 1. PhD in Psychology vs. DNP: • PhD in Psychology (Physiology Focus): • A PhD in Psychology is research-focused and will allow you to delve into psychological theories, research methodologies, and advanced studies in physiology within the context of psychology. It is ideal if you are interested in academia, research, or specialized psychological practice. • FlexPath Program at Capella: FlexPath allows you to move through courses at your own pace, which can be beneficial if you have a strong background in the subject matter. • DNP (Doctor of Nursing Practice): • A DNP is a clinical-focused degree aimed at advanced practice nurses, focusing on applying research to practice, improving patient outcomes, and possibly leading in healthcare administration. • Is it necessary?: A DNP is not required if your goal is to focus on psychology, especially if you’re not interested in advanced nursing practice. However, if you plan to integrate advanced nursing practices with psychology, a DNP could be valuable. 2. Choosing Between DNP and PhD: • If you want to continue working in nursing with an emphasis on psychological care, consider the DNP. • If you want to move more into psychology (e.g., becoming a licensed psychologist, focusing on mental health research), consider the PhD. 3. Steps to Pursue a PhD in Psychology: • Apply to the PhD Program: Ensure you meet the prerequisites for Capella’s program, such as any required coursework or clinical hours. • Complete the PhD Program: This typically involves coursework, comprehensive exams, and a dissertation focused on your area of interest within psychology. • Licensure Consideration: Depending on your career goals, you may need to pursue licensure as a psychologist, which could require additional steps depending on your state. 4. Can You Skip the DNP? • Yes, if your primary interest is in psychology and you do not plan to work in advanced nursing practice, you can skip the DNP and go directly to the PhD. 5. Integration of Nursing and Psychology: • With your RN-BSN background, you could integrate nursing and psychology in unique ways, such as focusing on mental health in nursing or working in psychophysiology. 6. What to Do Next: • Research Capella’s PhD program requirements and see if your current qualifications align. • Decide whether your career goals align more with advanced nursing practice (DNP) or research/clinical psychology (PhD). • If you’re set on psychology, start preparing your application for the PhD program. Feel free to reach out if you need further clarification or help with deciding!

@@xinsei o h thank you sm 😌

[@caramelchic123]

How many hours a day did you set aside to work on paper?

[@KimmyDTV]

Hmmm at least 4 hours after I got a hang of it but in the beginning it took longer as I wasn’t used to writing papers and researching so there was a learning curve

[@Nurse4Life255]

Omg all these classes got papers and other dumb stuff…:( Was there tests? If you take too long they recharge? On the commercial I heard it made it sound like you can take as long as you wantedlol

[@KimmyDTV]

😂 lol well no Capella is more paperbased but if you prefer tests I heard WGU is pretty good and they have more tests than papers and technically yes you can take as long as you want but the longer you take they will recharge you my first video on this topic explains it in further detail!

[@lenasamuel5869]

@@KimmyDTVhow many tests all in all did you have to do? Or was it just papers? And as for papers what were the min-max amount of pages? Thank you so much this was very informative!

[@diaana2005]

I recently applied at capella. I am to start in about 2 months and I looked at my class schedule, which follows what you named. However, it asks me to add another like 8 courses and I don't understand why...

[@KimmyDTV]

Hmmm do you have any prerequisites? If not choose the very easy courses

[@KimmyDTV]

If you are missing a lot of credits take some courses at a community college and than do the Capella nursing program after- it will be cheaper . Did you give in all the transcripts from previous schools? Even if you think they wouldn’t accept it?
