Does anyone know of an accredited RN-BSN program that is totally completed online?  I've been debating for years to get my BSN online, but the first thing every program wants you to do is to attend an information session at a specified location, NOT ONLINE.  I work night shift, but the time morning comes I have no motivation to attend a lenghty information seminar.  All replies appreciated.

The University of Texas has a program throught the El Paso branch (UTEP). I will complete this Decmeber... no need to ever step foot on campus for the nursing classes (there are 5). Clinicals can be done in your own area. I live in Oklahoma and didn;t have any problem completing my clincals (only 2 classes require them).

Hi:

 I have applied to UTEP for online RN to BSN. One of my criteria is, how well arranged are the online classes and how easy to use is the online format?  Also, how many pre/co reqs did you have to take in addition to the 5 core nursing classes> So far this one looks great, but I am nervous that the classes/ instructors may not be any good.

I would love to pick your brain and get an unsolicited opinion on the school. I just submitted app. 2 weeks ago. Also, if you have time, I would love to talk with you or e-mail. I am anxious to get started, but not sure about this school yet.

 

Thanks so much!

 

Yes. The University of Phoenix online is completely on line. I just received my BSN from there in June 2007. I thought it was a very good program. It has 5 week courses that are 3 credit courses. It also has you work in teams for group projects.

University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston is 100% online. Great program!

I am currently in the Kaplan University program, all online, and the two nursing instructors I've had so far are great.

Pat,

DeSales University (Center Valley, PA) does have a RN-BSN program that may be completely online but I'm not sure, here's the link:

thomas edison state college has an all online RN-BSN program that is really good.

I plan on enrolling for fall 2009 (have to be with my employer for 6 months first so they will pay 75% of the tuition)

The University of Wisconsin Green Bay program is fantastic (http://www.bsnlinc.wisconsin.edu/). So is Grand Canyon University (http://online.gcu.edu/index.php?page=nursing).

You might look at this too (http://www.allnursingschools.com/featured/online-rn-to-bsn/) 

fort hays state university totally online $161 per credit hr

Please have a look at the Linfield College Adult Degree Program.  Not only can you complete your rn-bsn degree online, but you can also benefit from the "Online College Guide" whether you choose Linfield College or another online program. 

 Best of luck!
