I did the University of Phoenix online BSN completion in 18 months and found it to be very satisfactory.

The best place for tuition is to look locally. RN to BSN programs are everywhere nowadays.
I choose Florida Hospital College because it's NLN approved and it's 100% online. It's much more expensive than a local program which didn't appeal to me, but it's cheaper than University of Phoenix. http://www.onlinenursing.fhchs.edu/
Good luck to you!

Tweety is right - I think many state/local schools now offer online upgrade programs. Mine does, but I'm all the way down here in Mississippi.. http://www.muw.edu/nursing/tupelo
Good luck! :)

I am through with one semester in their RN/BSN program, about to begin my second semester. The tuition is SO reasonable (cheaper than my in-state tuition was at the university I attended) & the instructors have been great! It is way less expensive than U of Phoenix. If you have any ??'s PM me.

I recently read something, I think on this site, where someone mentioned u of p being investigated. Do you know or anyone here know anything about this? Also, I've heard some places won't recognize an online degree, is this also true?
I'm getting my RN through a CC right now, but I feel like u of p sounds like such a great option for a bsn/msn...but I'm wondering if it's worth it if some places won't recognize it. Any insight?
Thanx,
Rebecca
I haven't heard about UofP being investigated. I found their BSN (and now MSN) programs to be fully accredited by the NLN and recognized (at least where I am in IL). Where did you hear about an investigation and what did it involve?
