The RN to BSN online program basically has you teaching yourself as there is no class, just papers and PowerPoint assignments every week. The course is set up to make it easy to find your weekly module discussions and assignments. They have a library to use online to find journal articles for your assignments. This is a lot of work but i followed their "take 1 module at a time" advice. I work full time and have kids, but I made it work. The instructors are fair. I feel i learned a lot about the culture...

I am currently in my 1st year at Aspen, and am completing my pre-reqs. At first, I was extremely satisfied with my experience, I was being challenged, I was able to catch on to what I needed to do quickly. However, I am in my second term and am finding that there is no standard amongst classes. Every instructor has a different idea of what APA7 requirements are, which seems odd considering we utilize the APA7 book. One instructor marked me for using headings, as it “wasn’t APA”, while another marked... Read More

Aspen university has very good instructors especially the ones I had.The online program is awesome!. The library was very useful to me. All resources to make you do your studies are easily accessible online. The tuition payment plan made it easier for me to complete and earn my degree.

I am nearly finished with Aspen's Bachelors degree in Nursing and I would advise anyone who is interested to steer clear of it. Since I am nearly finished, it makes more sense financially to continue however, if I knew then what I know now I would not be at Aspen. The first 4 or 5 classes are nursing related and nursing focused, however, the last few classes are all about your computer skills. You can have your nursing information and knowledge on point but you will get a zero for all assignments... Read More

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.

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

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

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.

Aspen fundamentally changed how to approach learning, for the better. The BSN program was organized and challenging. One class that stood out was Genetics/Genomics-A+++. Thank you Aspen University for educating students and perpetuating growth in the various fields of study.

I put off my BSN for 14 years. I was scared to DEATH of starting. It took me a few days to fully understand how the on-line classroom worked but I quickly called my student advisor and all of my fears/questions were resolved. I worked full time (4 days week, 12h shifts) as a clinical supervisor in a busy ER and had no trouble being successful! I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and completed in one year. I have recommended several friends who are doing great, too! Do it! Don't put it off. The comprehensive... Read More

I will graduate with Summa Cum Laude honors. I obtained my RN to BSN. It was not easy, but it if you set aside time to do your reading and research you will succeed. Follow the rubric and assignment content material. Be patient with yourself. Do not allow yourself any excuses. Take a break when you need to, and I suggest you schedule it in as a necessity. If you can not figure out something YouTube or Ted Talks are great references to utilize for people like myself who learn by listening. I, often,... Read More

I like that the assignments are done on your own time, yet there are weekly deadlines to prevent students from becoming procrastinators. You can see all of the assignments so you can work ahead if you like. I like the fact that you can register for classes on your own time and take more than one class if that works for you. I was totally able to work full-time, take 2-3 classes at a time, and manage a busy household! Definitely recommend!

I very much enjoyed taking all my courses in Aspen University. I had this idea that getting your bachelors in nursing would be so difficult but it actually was not as bad as I thought. All my professors were great and helpful. I have nothing but positive things to say about this journey. Thank you!

Thanks to Aspen's online program, I was able to complete my degree on my time, while tending to a busy family and work my usual hours at the hospital. As an ER nurse, with years of experience, I added my bachelor's degree to my resume and applied for ICU jobs online. I applied for three ICU positions on a weekend. By the end of that week, I had completed interviews, and even had a strong offer by Friday of the same week I applied. I had 2nd and 3rd interviews scheduled the following week; and by... Read More

I am only satisfied in that I graduated and became a nurse but it was not through great instruction from the school. Anyone thinking of going here needs to consider what they are getting into. They make it sound all wonderful and how supportive they are....all lies. They lie to you every step of the way, do crap to help you and instead blow you off. They love to change rules depending on how it fits them and yet the students are expected to just do it even if it doesn't follow protocol. You basically... Read More

Aspen is a great place to attend online education while working and living life. The academic layout is conducive to a positive work-life-education balance. It is 100% online and the academic advisors are always there to help. Payment plan is also easy and affordable.
