I'm attending Chatham University http://www.chatham.edu While it is pricey ($14,000) you can get through their program in only 8 months.

University of Northern Colorado has a great program and the tuition is some of the least expensive around.

University of Colorado- Denver also has an accredited online program. I think University of Phoenix is accredited too.

University of Colorado- Denver is a GREAT program!! And if given the choice, I would go there first. At least when I was looking, they were a Top 10 Nursing School in No. Amarica. My understanding though, is that they will not accept out of state students. I was very disappointed.

UMass Boston and UMass Amherst have online RN-BSN programs. UMass Amherst is about $15,000, UMass Boston is less, but both are more expensive if you aren't a MA resident.

I attend Indiana Wesleyan University BSN online.

18 months to finish. I am on my fourth class, it is very doable.

BEST PART=no chemistry, no statistics, no microbiology required as pre-reqs......

All of my associate degree classes were accepted for transfer.

Classes are 5 wks long, textbooks delivered before each class. Cost $22000, expensive but worth it for me.

The program works great for me, lots of writing but I thinks that with every online BSN.

Hope this info is helpful.

Thanks, it actually cost $16,000 but I will need to take a religion class and I guess 2 more english classes. But the school has a very good reputation and it seems very straight forward and you don't have to go through a third party like College Network and take 20 other pre-requesites by your self and very costly.
