Along with online nursing degrees, our students also pursue online healthcare degrees in health informatics and MBA-Healthcare.
Other advantages include:
- One of the lowest tuition rates among online schools. Without sacrificing academic rigor, we have reduced our costs to offer lower tuition than most schools.
- Study and log-in weekly at your convenience. You schedule your "school time" according to your needs - study whenever and wherever possible.
- Personal support. One - on – one support from registration to graduation.
- Monthly starts for terms and semesters. This means that you don't have to wait until specific dates to start a course; course starts are always coming up.
- Extensive benefits for military personnel and spouses. We are approved to accept TA and VA tuition funding, offer reduced military tuition rates when TA and VA are not available, and offer military scholarships to cover all non-tuition costs such as books, software, and shipping fees.
