Completely online ASN degree that I found.,

by CRTtoRN

Ok I am a RN and now my husband wants to be one too. So while searching for a school I found an online school called "Must University" And it cost less than 6k to do and a year to complete. Is this too good to be true? Anybody heard this? Its accredited by Accreditation Organization (IAO). Not sure about this. Input anyone??

I doubt any state will allow students to sit for Nclex without a clinical component. The wording on the website is fishy too. I just did a live chat session asking about clinical portion the answer I got was very short - like "yes there is" and the guy disconnected then.

i just tried to do some research on this school, when you type it in google alot of reviews come up matching saying it's a scam. It sounds, if they are in fact accredited then I'd be interested.

It says their accredited by IAO which is the international accreditation organization (which I never heard of) and they have no physical address neither does IAO. Sounds very fishy........

I would be concerned completing your asn with this school, but what I want to know is, if your already a licensed RN and you do their rn-bsn program, will it matter if their not accredited by the proper organizations.
