Distance degrees

Hi Guys,

I am a RN who graduated in the spring after three years in a diploma program in Ontario. I am a mature student and I am working on a very busy, stressful surgical floor in a teaching hospital.

I want very much to do my degree- and have been accepted into a nursing degree program full time a great hospital- but full time. I need to keep working and would like to do my degree by distance.

I ahve looked at Athabasca, St. Fx., and even some in the states.

ANYONE out there who is doing it, have done it, have considered it.............please let me know how it is going.....why you chose the school you did .....or why you did not do it.

I want to get started as soon as possible......thanks for any input.

p.s. I have even looked at some RN-Masters programs in the states......again any advice would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. There are also two of us working on it simultaneously on my unit....it makes it more fun, and its great to be able to discuss topics with each other. Others doing the long, long PT route of the BScN, are looking enviously at us, wishing they were in our program! I really feel sorry for them studying for their "Biology" exams, and "A&P" exams (yuck!!)
