Know anything about Regis or walden?

[nursechick182, BSN, RN]

I was wondering if anyone has done the online Master's in nursing with the education focus through the Regis-college network program or through Walden university. I am considering doing one of these and just wanted to know if anyone would recommend one.

Thanks!

I don't have any experience with Regis (or The College Network) but I completed an ADN through Excelsior College. Most people that I knew did not think that it was necessary to go through a publishing company like The College Network. The Excelsior fees are expensive enough without paying another party.

At Excelsior I got the free content outlines published by Excelsior itself, purchased the recommended text or checked it out from a library, read the recommended chapters, and passed the exams without too much difficulty. Some of The College Network's advertising makes it sound like they 'partner' with these schools, but Excelsior has disclaimers all over its website and literature that warns against using publishing companies.

You might get more perspectives by posting in the Distance Education Forum. Good luck!
