Fantastic program! I enjoyed being able to do my online education at my own pace while working. All of the advisors and professors were helpful and encouraging. I also learned so much from the other students. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to further their education.

Having the opportunity to purse my next degree though ASPEN University was a fabulous experience. Enrollment was simple and your advisor was available for questions. Financial Aid department was always helpful, answered emails in a timely manner. Majority of the Professors were great to work with, answered emails quickly, offered fair feedback. RN-BSN program was a great program, I would recommend to anyone pursing their BSN.

Aspen University has provided the way for me to obtain my Master's of Nursing Degree with as little disruption to my work-life as possible. Completing the classes online was beneficial for me in that it fit with my schedule and work/home life balance. The cost of the education could not be matched. It does require you to be a highly motivated learner and to be able to be self-directed. As long as you have a high work ethic, you will greatly add to your knowledge during the Master's classes and learn... Read More

I graduated from the RN-BSN program with honors in October 2021 with a 3.97 GPA, and I am incredibly proud of this accomplishment. Honestly, the classes are time-consuming and challenging. However, nursing is a formidable career that requires discipline. Hence, I was prepared to work when I entered the program. Our patients deserve well-educated nurses equipped with the knowledge to care for them appropriately. Aspen University provides nurses with an excellent education to accomplish this goal....

Thanks, Aspen University for allowing me to complete my BSN! It is a great program for adult learners able to maintain self-direction and discipline in their academic studies! I have previous online college experience and would never want to sit in a classroom again! Your professors were really encouraging and assisted in coaching my starting writing ability also with the added bonus of teaching how to do power points and recorded presentations as weekly assignments. I am sure these skills will come... Read More

Not all schools are perfect and you choose the school that best fits your needs. The BSN program was pretty straightforward and the best thing I learned was how to write a kick butt APA paper! The monthly payments are affordable and made this within reach. There were a few glitches- one teacher was wildly picky and too harsh. One didn’t even read my papers. But there will always be outliers. In all, for the cost, the convenience was very good, I felt like it suit my needs. It’s a legit school. I... Read More

Support staff were very responsive and are ready to help if you have questions and concerns. Classroom is easy to navigate and simple. Library was superb. Tuition is one of the lowest out there!!!

Although I just graduated and have not found a job that reflects me having a BSN, I do believe more doors will open for me now in leadership or education. Thank you Aspen University for providing me with such a wonderful learning experience. The instructors and the curriculum are top notch and I feel better prepared now to continue with my journey in nursing. I would not change a thing.

This school and the instructors are an incredible opportunity to advance your career I am a better nurse after this program, I gained a wealth of knowledge. The only downside is the exam at the end, but it is a small part to a beautiful journey I am encouraged for many doors that are now opened

Awesome school, I would recommend to all. Aspen gave me credit for a lot of classes. I only enrolled in the nursing classes only and no prerequisites. No time wasting at all on unnecessary classes. It’s affordable and no group projects. Thank you aspen for making my dreams come true 🙏

As an international student, I graduated with an Associate Degree in Nursing in 2006 and had not been actively involved in any further studies because I was always fearful of not being able to study online due to lacking computer skills and time management and financially not being able to afford payments. Researching schools in the later part of 2019, I came across Aspen University and was satisfied with its accreditation and affordable fee. With an entry GPA of 2.62, I knew that I was now more...

This school does not hand hold and spoon feed. If you are looking for a school to do that for you then do not choose Aspen. It is mostly papers and discussion boards. The benefit of that is you focus your papers to the research and time you put into it. If you have weak writing skills or lack motivation to learn based on your self-initiative and need an instructor to do of for you, then you should seek a more structured program that is face to face. Online learning just can't do that for you. Aspen... Read More

The biggest concern I have is the final exam. The platform when writing was not working appropriately. Into my third paragraph the formatting was off. It showed and extra letter that was not there and so when you tried to correct spelling the cursor was never in the right spot. It took me about 45 minutes during the allotted 4 hrs to figure out how to correct things. The formatting never was correct again. I literally cried at how frustrating it was. There was no way to change any of my thoughts... Read More

At 58 years old, I was able to complete my Bachelor's Degree in Nursing. It took two years, and there were definitely many, many late nights writing papers, but in the end it was definitely worth it. Can not disagree more with those who have negative comments. Life, as well as education, is only dictated by the desire to improve yourself. Congratulations to all of you who have successfully completed a degree at Aspen University.

This school is a complete joke. Take my advice and DO NOT ago here. I’m learning nursing from YouTube and paying 45k for it. I repeat, DO NOT GO HERE. Every other school is back in hospitals/in person except Aspen. DO NOT GO HERE. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

My study of choice was Psychology and Addiction Counseling. Although, I already had a Psychology degree Aspen gave me the opportunity to challenge myself in the study of Addiction Counseling. I was very impressed with the online format, my professors/Instructors, and the amazing academic counselor as well as other staff I was assisted by. I always received quick responses to my questions via phone as well as email. The selection of text books required were extremely useful in my field of study. I... Read More

Aspen was a breath of fresh air. I originally started at a local college and my employer would have paid 100% of the RN to BSN program. Once I started, I found it was not adult learner oriented. So, after some research I found Aspen. It is out of my own pocket, but it has been adult learner oriented. Having a busy work and home life, I was still able to get my Aspen work done every time. The interest free payment plan has also very appreciated. Aspen is about $11,000 versus nearly $30,000 like some... Read More

What a joke! This isn't a real school. You want the same level of "education"? Go to Amazon, buy some text books on the subject you want to learn about, skim the book and write a paper on the highlights. There you have as Aspen "education" to have a true Aspen experience don't open half of the books you purchased, because the syllabus and required texts aren't actually something your "professor" will know about. Also if you have any issues, questions, or concerns be confident in the fact that nobody... Read More

Excellent experience from start to finish. Classes were appropriate and aligned with the Core competencies required of a masters prepared nurse. Instructors were knowledgeable and contributed to the learning environment. Very supportive faculty and advisors. Monthly check ins by advisor very helpful and appreciated. Any and all questions answered from online content or by Aspen staff. I would highly recommend Aspen for any nurse pursuing a higher degree!
