I am interested in both schools at this point! Fort Hays requires the MAT (which is way better for me than the GRE) and is only $235.50 a credit hour for the MSN! American Sentinel has no testing requirements and is $450 a credit hour. I have been accepted at Excelsior College (where I earned my ASN and BSN from!), at $480 a credit hour. Although, I loved Excelsior I want to make sure I am happy with the curriculum and requirements! Cost can be a major issue as well! I just wanted some students opinions of these two schools! Thanks in advanced!

Hi Melody - I would be more than happy to set up a one-on-one call with you and one of our MSN students. That way, you can ask all the questions you'd like to about our program and get the 'real' scoop from a real student. Please email me at [email protected] if I can do this for you or provide any further information. Thank you! - Lisa
Thanks, I have already enrolled at ASU! So far everyone has been awesome! My first class starts Sept 19, so I will let anyone know how I like it!

Hi I am trying to finally decide between ASU and some others for my MSN/ED.
Why did you decide on ASU?
Thanks
I choose ASU since I loved the idea of 8 week classes. My BSN classes at Excelsior College were 15 weeks long....they sometimes just dragged out! Also, price for me was another factor, along with their awesome payment plan.

I'm going with EC for the MSN ... weird to be back at EC again! They are $250/credit for active duty military, which was too awesome to pass up ...
Good luck at ASU, Melody!! :)
Thanks Lunah!
I would go back with EC if the cost was lower. ASU is giving me a discount because my husband being a former military service member. So instesd of being $450 a credit hour it is $325! Let us know how EC is going!

Lunah,
Does EC's MSN require a trip to Albany, NY at one point?
