Hi everyone! I need help deciding on what to do.

I'm in a dilemma and I need help picking a school. Deciding by Oct 5th!!!

I started at Clarkson College in Nebraska doing online FNP program. I like it so far. The school seems flexible with the schedule where I could pick up as many classes or as little classes as I want. One thing I do not like is that they require 3-4 on campus visits throughout the program. If I complete it slowly, the program may take 5 years to complete. Also, I'm a little nervous with the name. I don't think anyone has heard of it and I'm worried it may hinder me getting a job. (I'm in FL). Another good thing is that they have been on the top graduate list for at least 5 years now. They rank #39.

I was recently accepted into Indiana State University FNP program. They do not seem as flexible with the schedule. I would be taking 2 classes at a time 6-7 credits. I like the name of the program and I like that they are completely online. This school has waiting lists to get in to the program. One issue is that they are ranked pretty bad as compared to the school I am in now. They rank #98. Their program seems a little intense as it is finished in 2.5 years.

Keep in mind I am working a full time job, 3 days a week, at the same time.

I cannot find much information on either of these schools online! So it's giving me trouble to figure out what I should do..What would you do guys?????
