Applying Online For Nursing College?
This Question From Online Nursing Schools | 3 Answers
QUESTION:
I am a graduate from Florida State University with a BSN. I am trying to find an online program for nursing to obtain my RN in order to get my BSN in nursing. The only draw back is that I am currently working a full time job and would only be able to attend a few night class but would mostly have to take all classes on line (except clinicals of course). I am not able to just quit my job right now to pursue my education as I wish I could so that is not a solution. I was wondering if some one could point me in the right direction. Should I attempt to get an AA in nursing and bridge or is there a program that will allow me to obtain my BSN in nursing mainly through online courses? I am currently residing in Atlanta, Georgia. Any information will be very helpful! Thank you!

Yeah If you can, I was wanting to do the same thing the delima that I found was I could not find a nursing program that offers night classes. Most programs do recommend that you not work full time. You could do a search of colleges in your area and if you can I would do the 2 year nursing program if it is a RN program. Before you do that you could call some of the local hospital and talk to a human resorce person ( I did this) and ask that person what qualification do they look for, Here in the mid west HR people told me that a 2 year is fine but they prefer a 4 year if you want to work with children (that is that hospitals network preferance) and that they help with tuition cost once you get hired

Not trying to burst your bubble, but the RN program is very intense — it’s going to be extremely hard to do with a full time job. I believe you can take some of the classes online through any college or university, but most of them are in person. It is a lot of hands on activity that prepares you for clinicals. Clinicals will be a huge challenge if you aren’t practicing your work in person. I wouldn’t recommend taking any online courses. Just take a course or two a semester – you’ll get it done eventually while still keeping your fulltime job.
