I am looking for an online Associates degree in nursing.?
I am an Army wife and want to get into a nursing career. Is there a GOOD on line program for an associates degree in nursing?
There are no good 100% online programs. There are a handful that are offered by for-profit schools or schools that aren’t very reputable, and some states have licensing restrictions because you attended a school that doesn’t require sitting class time or doing on-site clinicals.
You might be able to take a portion of your courses online, but definitely not all, and you will definitely have clinical rotations required in hospitals, which are much harder to arrange with these 100% online programs (which are usually not based in your home state).
