I need an accrediting online school to get an associate degree in nursing.?

If you are looking for an online associate degree in nursing to become a RN, then I would advice you to drop the idea. There is no accredited online associate degree in nursing that qualifies you to be a RN. You have to attend college or nursing school in person to obtain an associate degree in nursing to be a RN. There are a lot of laboratory and clinical classes which you have to attend in person in order to learn and practice the techniques and skills required of a RN.

Ok, but keep in mind that you will need to make sure that they are accredited for Nursing Education, and not just accredited to give out degrees.

Another thing is that you are required to do clinical education as well as academic education...and you can't do much with clinicals through online courses.

Excelsior College, Albany, NY. Fully accredited, well established for decades. www.excelsior.edu
