Nice of you to drop by and mention Walden's Master's in Nursing program. I agree that Walden University has a lot to offer for working nurses and just wanted to share a school information page I wrote about Walden the other day- which also lists the rest of their online nursing programs:

Regis University also offers an online RN to MSN bridge program in conjunction with The College Network. To help everyone be able to compare both here's more information for everyone about that program as well:

Thank you!

Can someone please tell me if the schools (i.e. phoenix, walden, etc.) that allow you to obtain your graduate degree online are credible? I have not done much research...but I'm skeptical of those programs. II guess it's because I wouldn't know what employers would think...I'm sure they look at this stuff.

Anyways,is obtaining a graduate degree a rising trend in the states? I live in Toronto, Canada, and I don't know any nurse who has taken this route (yet). I for one am interested since I would rather study in the comfort of my own home and at my own pace.

Thanks
