Anyone know of any good online nursing schools to get your RN?

Question:

I would like to get my RN online but there are so many online schools to choose from. This question is only for those who have been in an online program. I've heard bad and good things about it. I heard that you only have one clinical at the end of the whole program, it may be out of state, and if you fail you have to do the whole thing over. Also will it be harder to get a job graduating from an online school versus public school? I would like an online school where you get alot of clinical experience and not out of state. If anyone went through a good online school, please let me know the details about it. Thanks so much!

Answer:
You are right! There are alot of online schools. The best thing to do is to stick with the "Online Ivy League" Schools. Those are just the 4 or 5 top schools with a long history of doing online education and also that are ACCREDITED.
Are you interested in practical nursing? Neonatal nursing? Surgical nursing?

I would say start with the top online schools, and really do your research. AnswersRoom.com is great but you really have to read carefully through the info, school guides etc. Also, talk to the career office of these schools. You can get all that info on the Degree Select website. I say look into schools like ITT too because they mix an online component with an offline/campus component (I was telling someone about that the other day).

That website saves you the hassle of having to dig your way through all the stuff on the internet too, because you can get all the top schools to send you info on there nursing programs at once. Are you thinking of starting this summer?
Good luck!
