Hi there! I already have a bachelor of arts in a non-nursing field (journalism) and now aim to begin a nursing program in the next few years. My B.A. generally spares me from taking a lot of the prerequisites required by most programs (e.g., psychology, English, and other liberal arts classes), but I still need to complete some of the more STEMs-related courses; stuff like anatomy I and II, microbiology, statistics, chemistry, nutrition, and human development.
My question: Does anyone know online resources to fulfill the aforementioned courses, as opposed to in-person classes with expensive per-credit tuition rates? So far, the online options I've encountered appear a bit dubious in reputation. Ideally, an online option would be inexpensive and reputable enough that esteemed nursing programs would transfer credits from such an online institution.
When you find an inexpensive nursing program, please post the information.
My program (ADN) will be approx $6k (including texts/supplies). The BSN bridge will be approx $9k. Which was cheaper than a trad BSN program and an ABSN program schedule was not possible with my personal life. I am also looking at RN-MSN bridges as an alternative. I have a BA in Chem and MPH in community health.
