Hi everyone! I have been searching high and low for a hybrid/online adn or second bsn program. I understand that there will be clinical and lab components that I must attend. However, due to health issues I am currently dealing with I would really need to find a program that allows coursework to be completed online. I have my undergrad in Psych and 3.9 G.P.A. I also have taken every science pre-req that most nursing schools require. If anyone has any suggestions on program, I would love to hear some :)!!

Unless your state allows it, I doubt you will find one unless its a RN to BSN. Normally state boards will not take online classes for initial RN program to get licensing. The program is too demanding and strenuous to conduct online. Check with your state Board of Registered Nursing.
The only school that has something close to it is Western Governors University. Their course portions are done in cohorts with classes done online with a program mentor you work with almost daily. They are only offered to residents of Southern California, Indiana, Florida, Utah and Texas.
If you are not in those 3, check with your state to see which ones are offered if they have them or make plans to relocate.

If you are near NJ Thomas Edison has a hybrid ABSN. Many county colleges have hybrid ASN programs for motivated students
Hey Guys, thanks for responding so quickly. I appreciate the input. I live in Northern VA/DC. So feel free to point me in a direction if you know of anything around here :-)
Here is the Virginia Board of registered nursing. http://www.dhp.virginia.gov/nursing/programs/RN-Education%20Program%20List.doc
This is a college that say they have hybrid. http://www.nvcc.edu/campuses-and-centers/medical/academic-divisions/nursing/online-rn-program.html
Looking up NVCC now, thanks so much for the info :-)
