Online RN program

Published

Hi Everyone,

I have a bachelor's degree in biology and chemistry and would like to complete my RN degree so I can advance into a CRNA program here in FL. Does anyone know of any online RN programs??? They could be either in FL or elsewhere if they allow you to do the clinical portion in your area. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Admissions to CRNA programs is very competitive. One here in Virginia receives about 1000 applications/year for 30 spaces. You'll also need to work as a RN in an ICU for at least 1 year before applying for CRNA programs.

Because of the competitive nature, CRNA programs consider your prior programs, your science classes, your GREs, and your work experience. I would encourage you to look at a more traditional ABSN program there in FL (there are many fine ones where you can pay instate tuition).

you should also determine whether the CRNA program that you are interested in requires a BSN. if so you will either have to complete a bridge program, or just go directly for a BSN. You can do a direct entry or accelerated program.

If you have $35 Grand, UNIV of Wisconsin Osh Kosh has a 1 year online program with local clinicals to you.

I looked into the online BSN, but it isn't approved for the state of FL at all, so I guess I cannot do that one. Thanks for the info though! Does anyone know of any other online accelerated BSN programs?
