Ask us anything on this site, and the parts that are not
Every page here stops at the same limit: it can give you the rule, but not what the rule means for your postcode, your transcript and your roster. Ask, and an adviser answers — with no stake in which school you choose.
What to ask
Anything at all, but these four are the ones a page structurally cannot answer and a person can, usually inside twenty minutes.
Is my state restricted?
Walden will not approve a practicum at all in some states. We check the current list against your exact programme and catalogue year.
What is my transcript worth?
Walden caps graduate transfer at half the programme. What you would actually be granted depends on what your prior coursework contains.
Is there a preceptor near me?
The number that decides whether any online programme is safe for you. It varies by county and by specialisation.
Should I be looking at Walden at all?
Sometimes the answer is no. You will get that here rather than in year two.
Or take the twenty minutes
A written answer is fine for a single fact. If you are weighing two or three schools, or if the placement question is the one keeping you undecided, the call is genuinely faster — we can check your state, your route and your local preceptor supply while you are on it.
Common questions
Will you pass my details to Walden?
No. An enquiry here reaches this practice only. We are not an affiliate of Walden or of any school on this site, and your details do not become an admissions lead somewhere else.
How quickly will you reply?
Within one working day. If you ask for a call we will offer times that suit a shift pattern, including evenings.
Does it cost anything?
No. The consultation is free and carries no obligation. This practice is paid when nurses choose to work with us on placement or coursework support, which is a separate decision and not one you need to make on the call.
What if I have already enrolled?
It is still worth asking. Much of our work is with nurses already inside a programme, and practicum problems in particular are far easier to solve early than late.
