Anyone know of other online schools other than DSN and Rio Salado?
I have been all over the internet looking. If there are two then there must be more and we just don't know about them.
Thanks

i'm not familiar with the two you mention. probably just my lack of understanding abbreviations, so please forgive me.
i am going to go from lpn-rn thru the excelsior college program. i plan to take the classes i need thru the college network's course plans. it is much cheaper and the coursework looks much easier to comprehend than the outlines i looked at directly from ec.
i would like to find someone who would like to swap the college network materials or just sell them. i've found some on ebay quite reasonably, but thought that perhaps there were many of us out there in the same boat who could benefit from the swapping idea. save us all a bunch of bucks!
i'll let you know if i win some of the courses on ebay.
hope i've helped............
I am looking into EC also. I spoke with someone today at the college network about purchasing Nursing Concepts 1 and was told that the least you can purchase is 4 at 435.00 each. ouch! This is probably what I will end up doing. Stay in touch. Where do you live.
have you met with a college network rep to see exactly which classes you need to take? i have found all of the ones i need on ebay. my thought was to try to contact one of the persons on ebay who wins the bid on the ones i need (if i don't get the bid) and see if they want to sell it when they get done. i think if we work together on this, we can save big bucks and get what we want in the end.
i live in central nebraska. where are you? is it ok if i email you directly?
