Online MSN

Updated:   Published

I am struggling with the decision to persue my MSN in Education right now. I know I need an online program and preferably something that is reasonably priced. I live In Kentucky but haven't seen any decent in state options. I think I have it narrowed down between Wilmington University and Aspen. I am familiar with Wilmington and like their program but the price is holding me back. I've heard tons of mixed reviews on Aspens program and am slightly concerned over what I've seen to be an expected 20 to 40 hour/ week commitment per class with multiple papers due each week. Anyone have a program they love or experience with either of these they can share?

Hello!

I love Wilmington University!!! I am biased though:), I am the Assistant Chair of the RN to BSN program. I am a MSN graduate of Wilmington University MSN in Leadership program and a current student in the EdD online program.

I believe the program is one that will prepare you to be a leader in any area of professional nursing practice. Wilmington University's MSN program is a manageable, CCNE accredited program that is available in all formats with supportive student services no matter where you are in our virtual world.

Here is the link to the course overview and curriculum:

Good Evening, I wanted to respond to your question concerning Wilmington University. I am the Chair of the program and would be happy to answer your questions. The RN to BSN program can be completed entirely online. We also offer the accelerated option for those students that are interested in pursuing their MSN, NP and a DNP. We have so many opportunities and with affordable tuition. You can use the tool tuition comparison chart to evaluate the tuition and value.

I do not mean to hijack the discussion, but can you tell me about the DNP for a CNS at Wilmington U. I would like to know about the retention rate. Do you know how many recommendations for admission? I saw both one and three listed on the site. Thanks!

I obtained my bsn from WilmU. It is frustrating to me they do not offer any incentives for alumni to continue their education there like many other schools.
