Did anyone get there degree online?

Published

My question is to all the NP's and those with MSN's, did any of you achieve a degree through an online program? If so how was it? Did you find it difficult or easier than traditional class work? Which online program did you go with? How long after getting your BSN did you wait? Thanks in advance for any info :)

I'm doing an online MSN now. I've been a nurse for 12 years (ADN), got my BSN in 2004 and will (crossed fingers) be done with the MSN in 2005.

How did you complete your clinical rotations?

The clinical's for Graceland University are set up in your own town. You have to find yourself a preceptor and then they sign a contract that you will get your hours there. The school does on site visits to make sure you don't make up your clinical sites.

Its easy , You pick who you wnat to work with. So if there is a Doc or an N P who you admire . You ask them and the school arranges a contract with the preceptor . I'm doing my adult specialty with a wonderful Doc.:)
