Best online education for BSN after ADN

Published

I want to get my BSN once I graduate from my ADN nursing program. I want it to be an online school. I have heard of Western Governors but haven't heard of anything else nor have I researched it. I plan on doing some more research but I am curious to what you guys have to say about online schools. I am looking for a good education but also not ridiculously expensive.

Specializes in Case mgmt., rehab, (CRRN), LTC & psych.

I enjoyed my experience with WGU. Affordable online BSN programs are offered at Fort Hays State Univ, Univ of Texas at Arlington, University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Southern New Hampshire Univ, and Eastern New Mexico Univ.

If you do not care about affordability, there's Grand Canyon Univ, Capella, Chamberlain, Indiana Wesleyan, Oklahoma Wesleyan, and Colorado Tech.

What no Excelsior? They are one of the oldest, best, cheapest, and largest.

Excelsior is on of the Cheapest?!

Per their website - $510 per credit hour. Before you can even pay them that much, you have to pay $100 just to apply. Then after that, there's a $495 fee to graduate.

That's in no way one of the cheapest - not by a long shot.

There are TONS of CCNE/ACEN accredited programs online in the $200/credit (some even less than that...) range. You almost have to try to NOT find them.
