Best online nursing schools?

Published

Hello all! :)

I'm trying to pursue my CNA, and have been having trouble finding an online nursing school that is affordable, and still accredited. It seems like I have to go with one or the other, which seems silly to me!

So, what online schools have you gone to? Or maybe heard of?

Thanks!!!:D

There is no online only entry to practice CNA or nursing school. All candidates must complete in person skills and clinical rotations. There are some hybrid programs where the didactic/theory is online and clinical is night's/weekends/block scheduled.

Try your local county college ASN program many offer hybrid programs for experienced students working online. My local college has a one day on campus/clinical program but you must be a working LPN or have several years paid experience as an EMT, CNA, or CHHA. The LPN is accelerated given credit for previous licensing. All pre-req's must be completed as a condition of admission. Remedial skills time must be scheduled on campus for an additional fee if the student cannot demonstrate sufficient competence on the scheduled skills lab day. Extra practice is on campus during open lab time.
