Georgia Southern Named One of the Most Affordable for Online Nursing Education

November 1, 2018

OnlineU.org has ranked Georgia Southern University’s School of Nursing as one of the most affordable online colleges for nursing for a Master of Science in Nursing and a RN-BSN degree. The School of Nursing made the ranking at ninth for Bachelor’s Degrees in Nursing and first for Master’s Degrees in Nursing.

“These rankings represent online schools across the nation that are making an effort to provide economical options for students,” stated Kelsey D’Ewart, a representative from SR Education Group.

To be considered for the rankings, schools had to be regionally accredited and offer at least one fully online degree. Tuition for every college offering fully online degrees was manually researched to determine and rank the most affordable choices.

“We are thrilled to have two online nursing programs at Georgia Southern University ranked on the most affordable online nursing programs for nursing degrees in the U.S.,” stated School of Nursing Chair, Catherine Gilbert, Ed.D., RN. “Online delivery of nursing education has become an essential option for many students and these rankings are a true reflection of our commitment to quality, accessible and affordable nursing education.”

The School of Nursing is housed in the Waters College of Health Professions and is fully accredited by the Georgia Board of Nursing and the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education.

Clinical Internship/Practicum Experience Update

Many of the clinical programs offered by the Waters College of Health Professions require a clinical internship or practicum experience to fulfill degree requirements. Pursuant to the University's legal agreements, participants in clinical experiences are required to abide by the workplace rules of the clinical site. The University is aware of recent federal requirements that would mandate vaccination against COVID-19 for those working in certain settings, including health care. At this time, we expect that these new requirements may significantly impact our ability to locate a placement for students who remain unvaccinated. As always, WCHP will continue to make every effort to place students at clinical sites. However, please be aware that we may be unable to locate a site to accept unvaccinated students, which may cause a delay or inability to progress and complete the program of study.
