So far the cheapest online RN-BSN program that I have found is at the University of Wyoming.
http://uwadmnweb.uwyo.edu/nursing/rnbsn/prospective/rn-getstarted.asp
Tuition
2006 - 2007 Academic Year:
Undergraduate
$94.00 per credit hour
Graduate
$159.00 per credit hour
Online Fee
In addition to tuition, students will be assessed an online fee of $40 per credit hour with a minimum of $50. The Online Fee is non-refundable after the Add/Drop period.
so that's $94 + 40=135 times 3 =$402 per 3 unit class.
So anyone else find anything cheaper than that?
Just looking to save some money and pass the info along :)
While perhaps not the cheapest, WGU's program is one of the reasonable programs now available out there. Online University | Online Degree | Accredited Bachelor's and Master's Degrees
Hi, I just wanted to correct something I think I had posted earlier on this thread.
In my research I have found Ohio University, NOT Ohio State University,,,guess that really does make a difference.
Anyway, if you are a RN currently working at one of their "partner" hospitals or graduated from one of their "partner" community colleges it looks like you can get your BSN for $5850 !
Even for myself, who does not belong to any of their partnering institutions, of course, living here in New Jersey !....tuition looks to be $155/credit.
Maybe all that searching around actually DID help !!!!

Lets do like caliotter and supply the links :)
Here is the link to Ohio State online RN-BSN
Ohio University RN-to-BSN Academic Outreach Initiative
And Fort Hays State University
Here is a better link at FHSU online RN-BSN :)
If you live in California, Cal State Dominguez Hills is not too bad if you do it all in three semesters going full time.
Online Bachelor of Science in Nursing (RN to BSN) Degree Completion Program
But they did have to raise tuition for fall.
$ 1,539 for part-time up to 6 units and $ 2,427 for full time 6.5 and more units. But it's completely online and comes highly recommended.
Plus not too many classes to take as pre-reqs. You don 't even need o-chem.
Faeriewand said:University of Texas at Arlington is also very cheap for the pre-reqsYou can take them online A&P and Micro for $349. pretty good ?
So how do you find this program? Very challenging? I am math challenged and need to take some pre-reqs. Looking for cheapest on-line to complete some of those basic courses. I live too far from a community college. Thanks!
I know this is an old thread, but I'd like to add some info.
UT Arlington Academic Partnership RN to BSN did recently raise their tuition, but still is an excellent value.
As to transfer credits, they accepted almost all of my previous credits, the ones that were not accepted were due to course description(s) not the age of the credits.
I have also applied to Univ of Wyoming, even though they seem to have a more stringent clinical requirement.
Does anyone have experience with either of those programs.
Thanks in Advance!
I have tried applying to UTA's RN to BSN program. They have misplaced my transcripts twice. I was slotted to begin on 26 Sept but due to my transcripts being misplaced must wait to the Nov 7 class date. Communication from the university is lacking. They do not update their MAV account so you really do not know where you stand with your application status. I live out of state so I am not able to go directly to the university and talk with someone. I feel completely helpless. Needless to sy I am know looking into other online programs. UTA cost me 6 months worth of time!!
Although I posted positively above, I have since experienced lack of communication from my advisor. I contacted admissions, who suggested that perhaps it was due to my emailing from my personal email account (which had previously been answered by the same advisor), so I emailed from my student account. My last email to my advisor was a week ago, and after I looked back at the dates, I have been trying to get a response for over 2 months.
So, I enrolled for this semester at a local university. Not sure how I will proceed from here, as I am seriously looking at Ohio University, as well as the University of Wyoming.
