Online FNP with live classes

[raeenna]

Looking for an online FNP program that offers live classroom experience (i.e. on the web with your class). I know Georgetown and Simmons offer this. Anyone know of anywhere else/have a recommendation?

Thanks so much!

Try your local brick and mortar schools - I've found that while they may not advertise as an online program, a lot of them offer most of the classes online with only occasional on campus time (once per week?) for some discussion and lab stuff.

Thomas Jefferson University offers live web course for all clinical courses for students who live 90+ miles from school. You attend via web cam. Other courses normally held on campus (pharm, pathophys, assessment), the lectures are recorded for online students.

Does Thomas Jefferson provide recorded lectures for all courses or just pharm, pathophys, and assessment courses for distance students in the online fnp program? I was just accepted to Thomas Jefferson University's FNP Program and am trying to decide between Thomas Jefferson and Frontier Nursing University.

From what i remember, there are recorded lectures for the three Ps, as mentioned above, the clinical courses are live via webcam (and also recorded so you can go back and relisten anytime), and i think a few other classes. For the other courses, it may have been up to the instructors. There are only 12 courses. There are modules for every course and quite a bit of interaction. I felt it was a very rigorous program but i was more than adequately prepared for boards.

Every program has its issues but overall i was pleased with my educational experience with TJU.
