I shadowed a Nurse that was just finishing up her FNP through Graceland and she said the program was great.

The University of Oklahoma has some on line classes, but no, there is no on line only MSN. I just mentioned that is where I attend, but I wanted to say that Walden and Graceland were good.

University of Phoenix is 100% online. Roughly a year and a half to complete.
Fully Accredited. I may be wrong, but I had heard that Walden was not accredited. Again, I may be wrong.

Per the Walden University website:
Walden University is seeking professional accreditation from associations recognized by the U.S. Department of Education for a number of degree programs.

Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education
The Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) has accepted Walden University's application for initial accreditation of the Master of Science in Nursing program. The on-site evaluation by CCNE will occur during fall, 2005, and the CCNE Board of Commissioners will make an accreditation decision in spring, 2006. CCNE is officially recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) as a national professional/specialized accreditation agency. http://www.waldenu.edu/c/About/About_231.htm

Initial accreditation usually reviewed and granted afterschools second class graduates. It will be retroactive to start of program if meets standards.

Walden Univ? Anyone using them

Walden Univ. is offering a 50% tuition reduction for their online Master's program if you sign up for Sept 6th start date (deadline this Monday). The reduction is offered if you agree to a comprehensive evaluation of their program. So anyone out there used/or is using them currently???? Still tying to choose.
