An accredited program is definitely the most important thing and is the one thing which I have made sure the programs I am looking at have. This is good to know. I am heavily favoring Wyoming University and they are not due for accreditation again until 2020. Plenty of time to finish my BSN. Thank you all for the replies. :)

The program for a traditional RN student is 4 semester long with no school during summer. From the way I understand the program is currently going for an LVN to RN route is 3 semesters long with no summer session and the LVN's joining during the 2nd semester. The staff at the school is inviting to questions and would be willing to meet with you if you have any other questions or concerns. I will say the entrance to the program is very competitive.

I will be graduating from RN school in May and have thought a lot in the past about being an FNP or ACNP. I figured my current route takes me to an RN to BSN program and have researched a lot into different options; including online RN to BSN programs. However, some of those programs do not have any clinical component and is all coursework. Any idea if this will affect getting into a NP program?
