Helpful Insight Re Suny Schools & Utica College - Online

CrunchyMama, ASN, RN · Dec 19, 2009

I looked into doing the online program at Utica College and I changed my mind when I seen that it's $900/credit hour. I'll be going to Suny-IT which is also nearby for about $200/credit hour....they don't have an online BSN program but $900 is crazy!

There is no such thing as SUNY Adelphi. The Adelphi University in Garden City, NY is a private institution - which is apparent by the 26,000 a year tuition. Perhaps you are confusing this with SUNY Delhi?

Oops my bad, lol. I read it wrong. Thanks for clearing it up. But still...too expensive IMO. :)

I don't *think* there's any videotaping, which is why I quit Excelsior. I am not a producer! I'll be going with Chamberlain.

All of the schools listed are good schools. I am nearest to Plattsburgh and wasn't aware that they had an on-line program. I would look into SUNY Stony Brook. The best of them all, and Empire STate College also has an online program with preference given to NYS residents.

Good luck on your journey to Chamberlain.

I looked into Stony Brook curriculum, but a little concern about the clinical practice portfolio.

RN Baccalaureate students are required to submit a clinical practice portfolio to be evaluated for 28 advanced placement credits. If the portfolio does not meet academic standards, the student will not be able to continue in the program. The Clinical Practice Portfolio must be submitted by the end of your first year of study. The cost is $350.00.

I don't think I could take the risk... :specs:

When I had looked into online RN to BSN programs, I discovered that SUNY Empire State College's program is not accredited. I had considered it until I found this out. I will be attending Utica College this May and so far I'm very happy with the admissions process. We'll see how the coursework and program is.
