Can I take any online pre-requisite courses for a nursing degree?

I would do a search for online schools or check out the programs at the schools in your state. Can I ask what type of degree you have to get the job you have? It sounds like a great job. To do that job in my state you must already be an RN and have lots of exp.

An online course is only as successful as you make it. You have to be comfortable with technology, motivated to learn, and disciplined. You should already be well acquainted with higher education and the rigors it takes to succeed in a college-level class. Some colleges charge more for their online classes, while others do not. Whether the college is public or private will play a part in determining how much you will pay for your classes. Financial aid should be available. If you decide to pursue online education, be sure that you are enrolling in a college that is properly accredited (this usually means a regional accreditation, such as the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, the Southern Association, the Northeast Association, etc). With a professional program such as nursing, you will also want to make sure it is recognized by the Board of Nursing. Online programs are offered in nursing; I believe one is offered by collaboration in the University of Wisconsin system). By the way: Online learning came about as a response to public demand and need. It is not a "make money for less work" scheme, as someone implied (the type of work required of the college and its faculty is different, but it does not decrease. In some ways, it's even more difficult). The average age of college students is getting higher, which means that our students typically have family and work commitments that prevent them from attending regularly scheduled campus meetings. Online learning allows students to take classes when they otherwise cannot.

As a previous poster said, I would look into community colleges or universities that offer online classes instead. Some of the online schools seem a little hokey to me. Not all, but some. But, my main concern is that some of these online credits might not transfer to the program you decide to go into later on. I would research the schools you intend to apply to for nursing, and see if they will accept transfer credits from online schools and/or classes.

try looking at community colleges and nursing schools in your area and asking if they have online courses. I don't know what state you

are in but Sentara School Of Health Occupation in Virginia has Online distance learning class check if there programs in your area like that.
