Affordable online MSN programs

[L&Dnurse12]

Hello all! I am a BSN prepared nurse who is hoping to obtain an MSN degree. Does anyone know of a good, accredited online MSN program that won't charge an arm and a leg? I want affordability but not if it means using a college that is not well run or respected. Also, I'd prefer a program that doesn't require a GRE but I think most are requiring it these days. Thank you!!

University of North Dakota charges instate tuition for their distance programs, but I think that they charge a per course technology fee. That, and the cost of heading out there a few times, whittles down the difference.

Any clinical program is going to require hundreds of hours of clinical, and if you aren't going local, you'll probably have to find your own clinical sites and preceptors.

Most brick and mortars are doing most of the program online, so don't forget to check out schools in your own area
