Choose a brick and mortar with a good reputation who offers an online option for their program. I would also highly recommend choosing one that helps with clinical placement. This seems to be a huge problem for students and is an added stress I would avoid if you can.

I chose the best university I could get in to with the most rigorous program because I never want the quality of my education to come into question. I also want to be as well prepared as possible when I'm done.

There are a lot of great schools, you just have to find the one that works best for you.

Good luck with your decision

Could not agree with RN2bNP more, the further into your education the more you will realize there is so much you do not know. I could only imagine how someone must feel going to a private online school with ehh reputation. Depending on which state you are in look at your local University's. There are many of them that are majority hybrid so most of classes are online but they arrange clinical and require some in person. Overall the pubic University will be more rigorous and will leave you better prepared also less anxious about clinical sites or name on that degree..
