RN to MSN NP Track

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I have looked at the discussion boards and the most recent on this subject is 2008. RECENTLY does anyone know of any schools that do RN to MSN (NP Track) entirely online? I have found Frontier and , are there any others that you have heard of (or completed?? or current student). I am fine going for a couple weeks but want to do most of the work online. PLEASE HELP! Thanks

Years ago the university of NY had one. The one located in Buffalo NY. Not buffalo state, big difference.

You will still have to do clinicals (several months' worth) in person with a preceptor. Only the didactic portion will be online.

I know there are several threads about Frontier more recent than 2008.

I just wanted to add that most schools around us are going to PhD programs instead of MSN, so just beware of that :)

I think you mean DNP.

Yep, even Frontier will eventually be getting rid of their MSN program, and going for a straight DNP track.

I believe if your graduation date is after 2015, you must do the DNP program.

I am on the same hunt and I am strongly looking at University of Mass. Here is a link I hope it helps
