kakamegamama Specializes in MCH,NICU,NNsy,Educ,Village Nursing. Mar 29, 2012 Depends on what you mean by "online schools". Universities have online ARNP programs that are competitive, meet accreditation standards, and are not easy. They have "classroom" experiences via the internet, with online coursework, PLUS clinical hours with preceptors. I'm not familiar with "online schools" that are not related to universities. 0 Likes
